Morphinizin' Chroma Corps #1

Morphinizin' Chroma Corps

Rate this book
Martial arts, giant robots, corny alien monsters, and conveniently color-coded fashion? It must be Morphinizin’ Time!

After the Watchers of All Worlds choose karate champion and three-time-employee of the month Jason Caulfield to lead the reformed Chroma Corps against the monsters of Lord Evilface, he ends up in charge of four female warriors, each with their own quirks.

But his new life isn’t all pizza, karate, friendship, and romantic tension. The monsters he and his fellow rangers face are super dangerous... and super weird. Also, they keep making these horrible puns.

Can Jason, Doctor Goodbrain, and his beautiful teammates stop Lord Evilface from conquering the galaxy? Can our red ranger handle living in the same town as his ex-girlfriend, who’s now Lord Evilface’s spider-themed henchwoman? Can he handle living with four improbably beautiful ladies at the same time?

The cosmos calls for heroes. Which means it's... Go Time, Chroma Rangers!

Radical homage!

First off, I would highly recommend this book. The story was a wonderful incorporation of all the fun aspects from the series it's based off of.
Jason is the captain of a group of alien/monster girl karate fighters that he has to figure out how to make into a radical team to fight the Lord Evilface.
I really enjoyed the relationships that get built throughout the story, both between Jason and the girls and also their enemies. Because even good and evil need breaks right?

Fantastic Fun

This is absolutely hilarious and excellent. As a 90s kid, this scratched an itch I didn’t know I had. Can’t say enough about it.

I personally found the main character to be quite annoying. He was described as a “golden retriever” with two main interests: karate and exercise. Kitty or (AKA)Pink was undoubtedly the star of the show. She single-handedly carried the entire book for me. If you haven’t read one of Virgil Knightley’s other series, you might want to start there. However, if you’re seeking something lighthearted and don’t mind suspending disbelief, this might be a good choice to listen to in the background.

You have to read this book.

Anyone that’s ever heard of or watched episodes of the Power Rangers this is a must read book. This book is like the Spaceballs or Austin Powers of the Power Rangers. It will leave you laughing at with the over the top monologues and bantering. I really can’t wait for the second book.

I feel like maybe I missed the joke on this one. Because if the joke is just that they’re all really, really stupid, so all the dialogue is terrible and the descriptions are idiotic, I found that more annoying than funny. A lot more annoying. And not funny at all. But like I said, I think maybe I am not getting the joke, so give it a chance.

Want to laugh, read this.

I won't tell you it's great literature, because it isn't. What it is is a funny, enjoyable escape from reality. I don't know about you, but thats what I need right now.

Fan Fic?

This is like reading a 7 year old's Power Rangers fan Fic, that their jerky older brother jammed sex scenes into. I was expecting a clever satire and what I got was infantile and slightly offensive. Very disappointed.

DNF. I love Power Rangers, I say that unashamedly and I absolutely could not get through this book. Even I thought it was too over the top. The dialog was clunky without the charm of the source material. I was very excited to read this book, but it just didn't land for me.

I mean if the goal was to capture the power rangers vibe, they've accomplished that. Problem is that, it's really hard for an adult to read a serious story about evilface and goodbrain quipping to characters that love to say golly gee...

Just stupid fun

The characters are likeable. The story is fun. I'll buy the second book if there is one. Also Aura needed more screen time!

Silly erotic fun!

With no knowledge of the source material I went in with an open mind. The ,somewhat, subtle sarcasm is entertaining. You’ll laugh and enjoy reading this.

Great book

Very good book. Loved the lead "clueless" Fed Chrome. The other Chromes were hot/sexy. The fights were funny. Thank you.

Great Power Rangers Spoof. Might even be able to turn a spider Gold! Don't know where she would fit in the cockpit!

I'm sure that if a reader was/is a huge fan of the Power Rangers, this book would be awesome. I never found that show even remotely interesting. So this book just didn't work for me. I keep notes as I read, and the most common thing I wrote down was the word "cringe". And I wrote it an awful lot in the 134 pages I read before I stopped.

Just about every piece of dialogue is awful. I'm all for a good pun or some witty lines, but they weren't to be found here. Like machine translated Japanese to English kind of awful. Schlockey kind of awful.

Plus, the MC can't seem to stop noting how large the women's assets are. He can't seem to not think about how cool karate is. He even thinks about what kind of poses he needs to make, the fact that they won't be able to curse because they're the good guys, and anything else hokey he can come up with.

I guess I'm just too old to appreciate this one.
