About this listen
Marvel's Captain America: Civil War
Following Ultron's war on humanity, the world no longer trusts the Avengers. After a controversial decision to hold the team accountable is made, Captain America is torn - he can understand people's fear, but the fall of S.H.I.E.L.D. taught him just how dangerous unchecked power can be, and he trusts his own judgment above all to do what's right. The Avengers themselves are bitterly divided as to the best course of action. Captain America will have to take a stand and fight for what he believes in - even if it hurls him down the road to civil war.
Marvel's Doctor Strange
Marvel's Doctor Strange follows the story of the talented neurosurgeon Doctor Stephen Strange, who, after a tragic car accident, must put ego aside and learn the secrets of a hidden world of mysticism and alternate dimensions. Based in New York City's Greenwich Village, Doctor Strange must act as an intermediary between the real world and what lies beyond, utilizing a vast array of metaphysical abilities and artifacts to protect the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol. 2
After saving the known universe once already, you'd think Peter Quill, Gamora, Drax, Rocket, and a sapling Groot would be sitting pretty. But nothing is ever easy for the Guardians of the Galaxy. After wrapping up their heroic and totally altruistic guardianship of expensive resources for the Sovereign, Rocket slips back into old habits and steals a couple. You know, for fun. Just like that, the Guardians are back on the run, and Yondu and his Ravagers are looking to cash in on the bounty. Their survival depends on the godlike figure who calls himself Ego - and claims to be Peter's father. Family is important, but for the Guardians of the Galaxy, it could be the difference between life and death.

Exactly What I Was Looking For
These are precise novelizations of MCU offerings. Although I never saw the films, they appear to recreate scene-by-scene what has been presented on the Big Screen.
(I was diagnosed with a Brain Tumor shortly after the release of 'Age Of Ultron', so I never got to see these films at my local theatre and can no longer see well enough to do so - I am limited to audiobooks (I can't read for longer than about 90 seconds at a time either), so I was thrilled to see Marvel Studios making this effort).
These productions let me immerse myself into a Comic-Book reality. The tales are 100% plot-driven, the dialogue follows screenplay conventions closely, and the descriptions are vivid - perfect for a deprived geek like me.
Overall, the readers are great. Tom Taylorson, Bradford Hastings, and MacLeod Andrews all read these stories with emotion and estimable timbre (although their pacing is a little slow and attempts at impressions of actors are occasionally painful). Furthermore, these books could easily be overproduced (with sound effects and music), but Marvel Studios admirably sticks to the plot in these offerings.
These story treatments don't appear to add much - there's no room for character development beyond what was revealed in the movies, for example - but I'm just fine with that. The writing is descriptive, the narration is professional, and the production standards are creditable. Even though GOTG2 is *terrible*, I give this collection 8 stars out of 10.
