It was fine, but it's a novelization of a video game. So, I feel like it probably goes without saying, there were a lot of pacing problems. That was really my biggest problem overall. But, again: video game.
I actually only got about 70% done. What a terrible read. I don't know anything about the game, but as a novel it was terrible. The story spent a ton of time on stuff that at least 70% in didn't seem to progress the plot. Batman seems to cross town in a blink, somehow he lost and needed a new batmobile, i don't recall reading how he lost the first but oh well.
Over all not a great book. Maybe if I had the game as background it'd make more sense?
