The Last Adventure of Constance Verity

This sounded like a fun adventure, but it wasn't for me. I was mostly bored, though it did pick up a bit in the last hundred pages.

Absolutely ridiculous, but still pretty badass.

“That's what people tell me, but I'm beginning to think that the world isn't as fragile as all that. The universe got along just fine for billions of years without me. I don't think it needs me to save it. I think it all works out about the same in the end. Sometimes, I like to think of myself with a dead-end job that I dislike, a husband who is letting himself go, and some ungrateful kids I take to soccer practice. It sounds dreary, but at least it would be my life.”
