About this listen
Once he was a valued key operative in Canada's special forces. Now the man known only as Logan has been forever transformed into Weapon X - an unstoppable, indestructible killing machine, a bringer of mayhem with retractable harder-than-diamond steel claws and the ability to recover from any wound.
It has been months since Logan escaped the secret research complex in the Canadian Rockies where he was held captive, breaking through punishing psychological conditioning, slaughtering all those who stood in his way, and fleeing into the wilderness. Now, at the clandestine agency known as Department K, the director of the Weapon X program decides it's time to reclaim the most successful experiment for his group.
But before Weapon X is to be brought in, the director opts to present Logan with a few more challenges to see how this modern-day Frankenstein's monster has adapted to its new abilities - and he magnifies the intensity of the external threat in order to gauge Logan's full potential....

Action-driven Pre-'X-men' Story
Marc Cerasini provides an entertaining exploration of 'Logan' reclaiming his humanity shortly after his murderous escape from the 'Weapon X' program (where he allowed his savage instincts to take over). Officials at 'Department K' send a succession of highly-trained, superpowered, and "experimental" foes against Logan in an effort to both test and reclaim him. The future X-man hides in a cave in the Canadian Rockies - neighbor to a reclusive community of societal outcasts (who both befriend him and need his protection from the unscrupulous military that wants to wipe them out in the name of secrecy).
Cerasini's plot is mainly combat oriented, introduces imaginative opponents & tactics just prior to each attack, and choreographs Wolverine encounters nicely.. but also spends an inordinate amount of effort developing the "local village" plotline.
Distinctly "average" reading from David Bendena contributes to my "acceptable" assessment of the book. His diction is professional, his timbre & cadence are comfortable for hours of listening, and he maintains a remarkably interested tone - but Bendena reads much too slowly (listen at 1.20X speed) and sometimes displays cartoonish voice-acting.
This fight-after-fight story is enjoyable - and worthy of 7 stars out of 10 - but spends too much time on the backstory of the locals and treats Logan very two-dimensionally.
Better Wolverine stories beckon.
