About this listen

 Batman matches wits with The Riddler and uncovers Gotham’s past in this sequel to Batman: Resurrection, set in the world of Tim Burton's iconic Batman.

It’s summer, and Gotham City has cause for celebration. The last vestiges of The Joker’s toxic legacy have finally faded, just in time for the mayor to partner with retail magnate Max Shreck to stage a Fourth of July celebration for the ages. But not everyone is rejoicing. Batman’s eternal vigilance continues as threats from rival gangs and masked criminals escalate by the day. Meanwhile, on the streets, protests grow in opposition to the city’s lavish excesses.

No one is experiencing the struggle between Gotham’s optimism and doubt more than Norman Pinkus. The Gotham Globe’s humble copy boy, he’s the unacknowledged mastermind behind the newspaper’s mega-popular Riddle Me This word puzzles. But Norman harbors a secret. He is the smartest man in Gotham City, using his prodigious skills to solve crimes anonymously for years via the police tip line—before Batman even knows there’s a crime to solve.

While neither fame nor fortune finds Norman, he believes in the promise of Gotham and what’s right . . . until he doesn’t. The man no one notices watches time and again as the city and its leaders cast their eyes high above the rooftops toward Batman. Dejected and unappreciated, Norman devises a scheme: With the help of dangerous new friends, he exploits the simmering tensions of the long hot summer to draw the Caped Crusader into a volatile game of riddles to crown Gotham’s true savior. As they clash, Norman—now known as The Riddler—and Batman will uncover hidden secrets about Gotham’s past that will have dire consequences for the city’s future.

Some of the best Batman stories are the ones that deal with family and trauma and the different ways in which they are dealt with, this is a great story that reveals more of the past and hopefully leads to more novels in the series. It would have been amazing if this version of the Riddler had made it to the screen!

A: this book. I listened to 'Batman: Resurrection' for a second time just before I listened to this book. The author is able to show narrative points in that book which makes this book great. John Jackson-Miller once again captures the gritty vibe of Burton's Batman and delivers a cast of characters which challenges the social, political and moral ideas of the Batman universe. This book takes time to develop characters, even characters like Bruce Wayne and delivers a unique take on the Ridldler. Will Damron also delivers a great narration. Hopefully we will see another installment in this series!

Q:Riddle me this - what makes a great follow up?
