Publisher's Summary

 Winner of the 2021 Best Indie Book Award for Young Adult Fiction. 

My name is Sawyer William Vincent - I know, it sounds like three first names - but most people know me as the Red Raptor.

Well, technically no one knows I'm the Red Raptor, he's just a bit more popular. 

Wow. Enough about my name. Let me start over. I’m a superhero - the legendary Black Harrier’s partner. Not sidekick. I don't care if I'm still in high school. We work together to bring down the city's most dangerous villains. 

When the Black Harrier gets a mysterious note, then goes missing in New York City, things are pretty much left up to me. But don’t worry...I’ve got this. Piece of cake. 

If you like Tim Drake as Robin or ever wondered what Peter Parker would be like if he lived in Gotham, Rap-tors is right up your alley. 

From number one Audible best seller Jaime Castle and CJ Valin comes a new superhero universe perfect for fans of both DC and Marvel.

Actually, it’s for fans of anything superhero-related. You’re gonna like it. Promise.

Painful and exhausting

The narrator felt the need to give the protagonist an incredibly annoying and nasal voice, if you're going to listen to this book, do not use headphones. The story is plodding and poorly paced, sections are seemingly missing and it jumps around with little sense of continuity. I am a long time fan of comic books, including the ones this is attempting to be and I found it so terrible that I deleted it unfinished, and asked for my money back.

Great start to the series!

A very enjoyable series. In many respects, it was like a well-narrated comic book. An interesting perspective to write the story from the sidekick’s point of view. Looking forward to the next book in the series!
