It is definitely a good book. They should let Ms Grayson do some more hero novels, no doubt about it. I even laughed out loud at some bits. She went over some backstory I didn't know about, which was interesting Batman is on the cover, and appears, but it is not a Batman story, so to speak, basically more like this :-
Nightwing-Arsenal-Green Arrow-Aqualand
with appearances by Batman and Aquaman that are more cameos, or referenced, rarely from a protagonist point of view. ... Read More

For those looking for background stories on superheroes this has some great info. Most depth was put into Arsenal (Speedy), and of the flashbacks his was the most complete. The story revolves around an investigation in Gotham with the odd grouping of Aquaman, Batman, and Green Arrow along with their once-sidekicks. The 'meat' of the history (as well as the text) involves the flashbacks to how the sidekicks came to be sidekicks, as well as the conflict that has left them all a little jaded.

If the answer to that question is 'yes', then this book is for you. Though from the front cover art and back cover 'blurb', this looks like more of a a "Batman" book, it comes off as more of a "Green Arrow/Arsenal(Speedy)" story.

The basic plot:

I got this book because I enjoy reading books about Batman. I enjoyed how descriptive this book was and going into some background about characters I had little or no knowledge of prior to reading it. There wasn't enough Batman in it, and I was slightly annoyed to have to wait to the last third of the book before I got the background stuff on Nightwing. All in all, it was very good with good descriptions of the characters and their backgrounds.

I greatly enjoyed this book, it filled in sections of the heroes past I hadn't read about and gave some fun interactions between them in present time.
My single complaint? The author starts with a chapter about people you don't know or care about, what happened to them, who they are related to, etc...is this essential to the main story? Yes. Should a chapter with someone more widely known been used to get you into the book before forcing you to wade through what is chapter 1? Most definitely. ... Read More
