Synopsis

Born to a rarified breed of Russian aristocracy, Kraven the Hunter had stalked and killed every animal known to man and considered himself the world's best big-game hunter. It was this confidence that brought him to New York years ago, in an obsessive quest to hunt what he considered the city's greatest prey: Spider-Man. But his target eluded him time and again, mocking him at every turn. Now, after years of crushing defeats against the web-slinger, Kraven has hatched one last plan to best Spider-Man. In a stunning instant of shocking violence, Kraven stands finally triumphant over Peter Parker's seemingly dead body. And to prove that he is the hero's master...Kraven will pull on his costume and become him! This GraphicAudio® Production is adapted from the graphic novel by J.M. DeMatteis and Mike Zeck.

This book was between two and three stars for me; maybe 2.4 - 2.6ish? I liked most of it; some of it was just a little weird, and some of it was just . . . meh? I confess, I never read the comics that this book attempts to novelize; neither have I read the graphic novel. As I cannot compare the nove......more

Kraven the Hunter is probably my favorite of Spider-Man's illustrious rogue gallery. I think what always drew me to his character was how formidable he was despite not having a major tool or enhanced power like Doctor Octopus or Green Goblin for example. Don't get me wrong, I know Kraven has taken a......more

Goodreads review by Johnson on January 28, 2023

This is a twisted, dark, and disturbing story of the battle for self-proven existence and purpose. Spider-Man is literally the least-fascinating character; Kraven the Hunter is the literal heart and soul of the story. The story begins with him and ends with his triumph. I had not read the comics wri......more
