Iron Man: Femmes Fatales was an OK read. I had a difficult time with placing the world in which the story takes place. It didn't seem set in the movie time line, nor the comic book ones that I remembered.

This book is a little disingenuous. In it, Nick Fury and his Dum Dum boys knock heads with HYDRA for the very first time. In many ways Iron Man is merely an ancillary character in his own novel. Not that I'm complaining. This is Jim Steranko-era SHIELD, and that's a good thing.
Not bad, but this type of story lends itself more readily to a more visual medium - either film/tv or comic book. I guess I shouldn't complain as that is the origin of the character - it just didn't come across that greatly int the form of a 300-page novel.
5 stars on the fun scale, but only 2 on the savored reading scale. So 3 overall. And I can still read a book in less than a month.
As far as Iron Man stories go, this one was barely mediocre at best.
It was an OK read for couple of cold december evenings.
Good, fun story.
