   The first book, a dark and ruthless one, was pretty good. The second, a Marvel spin-off, had a pleasant writing style and was easy to read. The third was an urban fantasy novel about a rich and powerful protagonist; it wasn't mindless fun, but the only downside was the multiple female leads, though it was still alright. Each female lead had her own role, and none of them were just decorative. Brothers, if you have any good novel recommendations, please let me know. I'm out of books to read.
