1.5 stars | It breaks my fangirl heart to do this, but I cannot finish this. The first one was bad, this is worse. You are telling me this is a BLACK WIDOW novel?


Natasha is my absolute favourite character ever, and the characterization in this novel is TERRIBLE. It's like the author doesn't even KNOW who Natasha is. There's no way Nat would take Ava (a freaking kid!) on a super dangerous OP.

I'll stick to reading fanfic, thank you very much.

Black Widow Red Vengeance is another story featuring Natasha Romanoff and Ava Orlova. The two Widows are out looking for what remains of the Red Room and seeking revenge for the death of Alexei, Natasha's brother and Ava's boyfriend. Both are still struggling with their grief, Ava to the point of seeing and talking to what can only be described as Alexei's ghost who gives her advice and makes her feel better about her loss. Natasha and Ava stumble onto an operation involving six experimental nuclear missiles. The race is on to discover who owns the missiles and what their intentions are. In the meantime, Ava uses her newfound abilities to exact the revenge that she has been looking for.
Several of the characters from the Avengers appear in this story. Tony Stark and Phil Coulson play important roles as well as Carol Danvers, aka Captain Marvel. 
This is a good addition to the Black Widow story. We learn more about her past as well as developing the character of the Red Widow. The beginning of the story is a little hard to follow because of the flash-fast banter between Tony Stark and Natasha Romanoff, but overall this is a good story with lots of action, adventure, and emotion. I hope there will be another book in this series.
