3.5
“I didn’t quite know what to expect, since I don’t make a habit of reading handbooks while combatting my archenemy and rescuing that gentleman in distress. But this was so corny it was it was actually fabulous! This handbook comprehensively explains every skill an action heroine and hero may need to thwart those no good villains. It could have done with a bit more corny dust, but then I suppose it won’t be such a nifty pocket book for that heroine on the go.”
