The Hunt portrays the frenzied aftermath of the devastating Thule Society attacks. Famed fantasy and sci-fi author Mercedes Lackey and newcomer Steve Libbey have joined forces to create a superhero-themed braided novel podcast series called The Secret World Chronicle. The series depicts an ensemble cast of metahuman characters coping with worldwide attacks by a mysterious, technologically advanced Nazi secret society, and the ensuing chaos. The Secret World is a meeting ground for pulpy adventure and thoughtful science fiction speculation, where ordinary people are elevated above their fellow humans and must grapple with the consequences of their newfound abilities.

The book is good, and the narrator is great. Many well written books seem to suffer from less then ideal narration. This one does not, Veronica Giguere does an outstanding job. My only problem is that Evo Terra and implicitly J.C. Hutchins tries, and largely succeeds at ruining the experience, but I guess that is true for most books on podiobooks.
