Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A Great Spiderman Story
This is a good Spiderman story. It reads like a Crime Novel, which is it's strength. It very nice in showing how the police view Superheros in New York, and the story shows dramatic views of Spiderman and how he helps save Venom's ExWife



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A Grrrrreat Book!
I looooved this book! It had all of the great things that I've loved in Spider-Man tales for so many years, but it also had the twist of a police novel mixed in! I always liked it when the city and its citizens were on Spidey's side, and in this book he actually teams up with the NYPD! How great is that?! I also loved how JRN and KRAD show off how truely powerful Venom really is, and how much emotion is inside that villain! You definately have to read this if you haven't already!



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - good, but the title is misleading
This book should not be called "Venom's Wrath." Venom does appear, and he is angry, but the focus of the story is elsewhere. People expecting explosive fights between Spidey and Venom will be very disappointed.

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Venom's Wrath: A Joke of Venom
The story line was excellent but the way Venom was depicted was horrible. It portrayed Venom as a slow-minded fool who wasn't even human. Technically thats true since he's bonded with the alien but in all the other novels Venom is a very intelligent very dangerous being. What was with the author calling him the creature throughout the story, he's always referred to as Venom or the symbiote. He also spends most of his time being blasted to near incapacitation, which has never happened before, ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good Spider-Man/Police story
I guess it was kind of a cross between a Spider-Man novel with elements of Law and Order. Spidey and a cast of NYPD officers attempt to rescue some kidnapped victums including Venom's ex-wife, Ann. Good useage of police crime solving was used here, Keith and Jose did their homework on this one. The final battle between Venom and Spider-Man was a bit disapointing. However this book was a good read for the most part.
