Commentary As Books Monster Hunter International (Monster Hunter International #1)
Five days after Owen Zastava Pitt pushed his insufferable boss out of a fourteenth story window, he woke up in the hospital with a scarred face, an unbelievable memory, and a job offer.It turns out that monsters are real. All the things from myth, legend, and B-movies are out there, waiting in the shadows. Officially secret, some of them are evil, and some are just hungry. On the other side are the people who kill monsters for a living. Monster Hunter International is the premier eradication company in the business. And now Owen is their newest recruit.
It’s actually a pretty sweet gig, except for one little problem. An ancient entity known as the Cursed One has returned to settle a centuries old vendetta. Should the Cursed One succeed, it means the end of the world, and MHI is the only thing standing in his way. With the clock ticking towards Armageddon, Owen finds himself trapped between legions of undead minions, belligerent federal agents, a cryptic ghost who has taken up residence inside his head, and the cursed family of the woman he loves.
Business is good... Welcome to Monster Hunter International.

"We're walking in the valley of the shadow of death, but we shall fear no evil! Because evil is about to get a stake put through its black heart because we are the baddest mother-fuckers to ever set foot in the valley!"Ooooooh, yeah!!!!What a unique, crazy, exciting world Larry Correia has created! Monster Hunter International, the first book in his Monster Hunters International series is fast paced, funny and, at times, poignant. Vampires, shifters, ghouls, demons, ghosts, gargoyles... thisI thought I knew what this would be before I even looked at the first page. Yet another want to be Dresden book. Something to quickly read, enjoy, and forget about afterwards. Well it took me completely by surprise. I loved it. Great take on the world of urban fantasy. Wonderfully choreographed action. Characters I actually cared about.I recommend this book to fans of urban fantasy and fantasy. Any horror fans, especially if you're the type who has to watch every made for Sci FI movie. Fans of
Read this book years ago. Really liked it. Lots of fun and stars. I became a fan. So did my husband. Between the two of us, we gave Mr. Correia lots of our hard earned money.Then the author decided he wasn't content writing books - he has to spew his political commentary across the genre and destroy the Hugos.And his "fans" have been attacking a respected friend recently.So, no more buying books by this author. I can no longer enjoy his work. His words and actions and the actions of his so
Previously three stars *(1)Turned out to be a fun, engaging read, and I'll definitely check out the next book in the series. The first person point of view is told by an unusual hero; a large, "ugly," now scarred accountant who was raised in family that emphasized guns and survival skills. As such, his language is straightforward, but not so simplistic that I was bored. Flashes of humor and modern references kept the voice fresh, making me feel like although he took situations seriously, he also
At first glance (say at the title) anyone would probably take this book to be basically "brain candy". And they'd be right....but sometimes you find some really good brain candy. While this book is openly a little on the "hokey" side...it's an excellent read. I enjoyed this book immensely. I was looking at the time for something light and had this book recommended to me by a stranger while browsing the shelves in Books-A-Million. (Okay, so I talk to people I meet in the fantasy isles in book
I'll write a proper review later, but this was so much fun to revisit ^__^I did notice some interesting things though, that I might touch upon in the review 🤔 I'll put it in spoilers ^__^- - -Okay then, guys and dolls, let's try and review this good and proper, or, as good and proper as can be expected from me, which I suppose isn't very well, my track record being taken into consideration, but here goes none the less...First off, I love this series, I think it's a lot of fun, I'm not too fond
This book is perfect for it's niche audience, which apparently is the southern redneck libertarian male juvenile gun nut.I confess I had mitigating circumstances when I bought this: There were time constraints. We had a coupon expiring that day, and we had a loyal doggie sitting in the car outside.
