Description
Wolverine. Sabretooth. Silver Fox. Wraith. Maverick. Together, they were Team X, the best covert-ops team NATO had to offer. But a mission to retrieve a disk from a pair of Soviet agents proved to be more trouble than they bargained for. A Soviet operative codenamed the Black Widow, a mutant Interpol Officer named Sean Cassidy, and shape-changing freelance spy Mystique were also all after the disk.
Years later, Wolverine is a valued member of the uncanny X-Men. The Black Widow defected and became a respected American super hero. Cassidy is Banshee, mentor to the next generation of young mutants. Mystique and Sabretooth are reluctant members of X-Factor, the government strike force. Wraith is still a covert-ops agent. Silver Fox is dead, and Maverick is dying of the Legacy Virus.
Each of them is kidnapped, one by one - starting with Sabretooth, by far the deadliest member of the former Team X. Wolverine must find out the terrible secret from that old mission - a secret that has remained hidden for years and could spell death for all of them!

Puts Kings ending to Shame.
the story jumps back and forth, early on it is a bit confusing as there is no narrative direction you are jumping in time, except the name of the chapters. a rushed ending that wasn't satisfying. a story riddle with so many holes and inconsistencies as well. The performance was decent though. I wish they did more with some of the characters.

Satisfyingly Dark Marvel Tale - for Adults
Face it. Comic Books are typically superficial immature cousins of Fantasy/SciFi. They are written for kids and geeks like me. The plots are essentially stripped-down good vs evil morality plays with deliberately cartoonish heroes and villains. This 'Ultimate X-men' offering from Christopher Golden is different. It explores legitimately flawed and conflicted characters that vary from the duplicitous (Mystique) to the psychopathic (Sabretooth) to the introverted/self-questioning (Wolverine). Don't worry - there's still plenty of action and cool episodes of cool mutants exhibiting cool powers in this tale - but Golden weaves a surprisingly mature international espionage story involving Black Widow (working for Russia), Banshee (with Interpol), and defectors carrying stolen data in a Cold War-era plotline.. and simultaneously presents a sinuous modern-day plotline involving Nick Fury of S.H.I.E.L.D., the CIA, and mysterious powerful forces kidnapping ex-members of Team X. The other difference in the book is the level of violence in the story - peripheral characters are cut to pieces, gunned down with vicious intent, and torn apart with large-calibre machine-gun fire. This isn't a kids' story.
My two complaints are that Golden's pacing is off - there are stretches with oddly plodding characterization scenes; and he jumps around timelines enough to force the reader to pay very close attention (or else risk getting lost).
Overall, however, this is a fun, captivating story atypical for most tales set in the comics universe.
Seth Podowitz reads this book marvellously: his tone is sombre (fitting the violent/subdued text perfectly); his steady deep voice makes the book easy to enjoy for hours; and his voice-acting is commendable (characters are easily distinguished and believable - even considering Podowitz uses notably inferior accents).
This R-rated offering from Marvel is worthy of 8.5 stars out of 10. If you're considering purchasing this audiobook, your Credit would be well-spent.
