Brilliant, but short, story arc where Deadpool is sectioned after acting weirder than normal, and is then made to kill all superheroes. How he goes about this is brilliant, though at times you are left wanting more. My favourite scene was when Deadpool killed the Hulk. The ending was clever and in tune with Deadpool's 4th wall breaking.

I was slightly disappointed in this book - I think I had way too many high hopes and was a bit let down. I thought each of the MC were slightly annoying - though I do like Tanners friend a lot - The story was great and the concept was cool I just think it fell a bit short for me.

This was a fun short story with a few good twists and turns to keep the reader interested. I found it both funny and creepy as I really liked the characters but I absolutely hate clowns. I would say this is more a comedy than a horror but I'm still going to shelve it as horror because...clowns.

Man, this was REALLY intense and scary for me.

I wish it was a little shorter and that the book moved along at a quicker pace (story-wise) but it was a suspenseful and intriguing read. Add that together + a lackluster ending and you get an exciting book that falls short of something a little more thought out.

Average King
Having read all of King (except the Dark Tower series) this is one of his more average yarns. Easy to get into as Ling is brilliant at getting you to warm to his characters but the story doesn't make you wish for it to be longer like his best works do.
  
Amazing !!

I usually don't like reading combo books, but this one was different. Such good stories! They are full length books, not just short stories. The characters all are very easy to like, and the story lines make it a difficult book to put down !! Thanks so much for writting it ! Can yall do another one together ?

I was going to give it 3.5 stars until that bit at the end, which boosted it up half a star--just because I didn't expect it. I can't go into details without ruining it, which would be a shame because I thought it was well thought out and written.

A nice short story with slight BDSM themes.

"This wonderful short novel is a reminder of how jaded we’ve become as readers. I remember the exact moment (spoiler alert for 60-yr-old book) when I realized that this story about warring primitive tribes is set inside a lost generation ship. I was astounded by its (then) originality, and unassuming storytelling. And still am."
