About this deal

People get bored with your grief. They want something new to talk about. So you stop bringing it up, because you don't want to bore anyone" Starting with the characters. I'm actually really glad Marie Lu didn't go down the route of just making this Bruce's adventures as Batman, as that would've seemed veryyy unoriginal. Instead, it was an incredibly fresh spin on Batman and portrayed Bruce as just a normal, albeit gifted, teen. Bruce as a character was very well-developed and really easy to root for throughout the book. I really liked him 😁👍

I am not the biggest superhero fan, but I will admit I’ve always had a bit of a soft spot for Batman. And you all? I honestly loved this. Also, I’ve never read anything by Marie Lu before (I know, I can’t believe it either, honestly) but now I plan on devouring everything, because I completely connected with this writing style and I never wanted to put this book down.This book is exactly what I expected from this series. I have previously expressed my displeasure with the execution of the last book in my review of Wonder Woman:Warbringer as the book felt dragged out and most of the plot happened at the end of the book, but this book was everything I hoped in terms of writing, plot, and characters.

From season 2 through 5, Wells was a former agent that turned into the main villain in the second season and served as a holographic image used for consultation throughout season 3.

Killer Moth appears as a playable character in Lego Batman 3: Beyond Gotham, voiced by Christopher Corey Smith. Walker appears as an optional boss and playable character in the sequel of the original LEGO Batman game. He is voiced by Joseph Balderrama.

I did like this story, I would have given it 3.5 stars, but I thought it deserved a round up. Though I can not say if this was because of my bias of Batman being my one of favourite characters of all time. This is also the reason I would take off at least one star. As good as the story is, this is Bruce Wayne's story. This is not quite an origin but a before he was Batman story. I liked almost everything about it. I had fun reading scenes with Bruce and his friends, I enjoyed exploring Gotham city, but most of all, I liked scenes with a mysterious girl, Madaleine Wallace, who was our main villain. I'm incredibly impressed with this story as well as how they have executed this creation from the DC Icons in general. I have anticipated each of these releases and can now fully say that I'm extremely excited to read "Catwoman" as these two predecessors have blown away all of my highest expectations. Also, let it be known that I would also be behind novelizations of Marvel characters as well because this DC series has truly been a success. Overall, I had a blast reading Batman Nightwalker, and a big reason for that is Marie Lu’s compelling writing. As he has no special-abilities, Killer Moth relies on his technology instead. Some of his most notable tech includes:

Maybe this book will work for readers completely unfamiliar with Bruce Wayne and the Batman story - though it contains just enough nods to the canon to make me wonder if it will - but for anyone who's seen a few movies or read a few comics, it is not interesting, exciting, or unique enough to elevate itself beyond the fanfiction level. The parts of the book that were done very well are book showed Bruce's intelligence. He is not just some rich kid getting by on his parents money, going to the best schools because of his family name he is an intelligent young man (still a little naive) doing well at school and shouldering the responsibilities of his company, with good people to help him. He is not as well trained as a fighter, but he has great instincts. When threatened, he does not flinch away from danger but moves towards it. There are some familiar characters and a couple of new ones, but I was surprised how little Alfred was used in the book. The writing style was good as usual, the characters were kind of fleshed out properly, the usual Marie Lu style in short! But another problem I faced here was the story-line and the twists; a few chapters into the story and I guessed everything and how will it proceed (I am not exaggerating here, I got all the twists right and had the courage to add one more twist that Marie didn't.. lol)

Batman Nightwalker was a perfect entertaiment. I read my copy during Christmas and it was the last book I read in 2017. I am so happy to say I finished a year with a great book in my hands. edited@08/05/2019: Guess what........I've been soaking myself in Batman online fanfics for months and I swear to the BatGod that I'd read plenty of better written, closer-to-canon-fanfics with better-constructed characters, better-plotted romances and much deeper understanding to the characters' mentalities than this... and those good fanfic writers have never charged me anything for their good works. So this could have been a story of any rich man with a sense of justice and some martial arts, nothing too special... what I am saying here is that Lu did not use the full potential of the Batman character.
