Publisher's summary

Dirty Harry meets Twilight. Number 3 in the break-out series and a follow-up to Monster Hunter International and Monster Hunter Vendetta.

Earl Harbinger may be the leader of Monster Hunter International, but he's also got a secret. Nearly a century ago, Earl was cursed to be a werewolf. When Earl receives word that one of his oldest foes, a legendarily vicious werewolf that worked for the KGB, has mysteriously appeared in the remote woods of Michigan, he decides to take care of some unfinished business. But another force is working to bring about the creation of a whole new species of werewolf. When darkness falls, the final hunt begins, and the only thing standing in their way is a handful of locals, a lot of firepower, and Earl Harbinger's stubborn refusal to roll over and play dead.

20 Thumbs Up!

Another great one from the from the horror combat Master. Love the storyline and the narrator is perfect as always.

Very Impressive Story

I loved every second of this book. can't wait to read the next one. Awesome!

The best in the series

I have had this book in my library for years, and I can't believe I've never reviewed it. If you're new to the series, you might be put off by the fact that the story follows Earl instead of Owen... don't be! In my humble opinion, this book is probably the most perfect in the series. you get a lot of background information on mhi, and Earl himself.
Not to mention the fact, Mr Wyman was in rare form when he put this one together. I'm not going to spoil anything, but trust me... The performance is fantastic.

Introduction of some key new characters, and of course Baen's favorite whipping boy, Joe Buckley... this book is a Non-Stop roller coaster of emotions and when you're done, you will be wanting to write me personally to thank me for this recommendation.

Larry Correia writes the bomb s***

I've read the MHI series up thru this one and the trilogy about the Grim Noir, and I've been hooked since day one. Can't wait to start MHI number 4 and see what else Wyman and Correia can do!

just keeps getting better

though from a different perspective, the 3rd boom is just as good as the other 2. can't wait to see what happens next

Best in series!

Really enjoyable listen. Very good story. Earl is awesome as always but in this story he's even better. Go wolf!

Gripping story

This is the third of a four part series, and in my opinion, the best of the lot. It is almost a standalone story and has little bearing on the final story (well, there are a couple of things...). The story is intense and hard to pause once you start. Interesting plot twists as the story unwinds and steeped with suspense. I enjoyed this story very much.

Good addition

A little jarring when Nikolai transformed from russian to Christopher Walken, but otherwise well performed

Christopher Walken!?!!

Have you listened to any of Oliver Wyman’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I just wanted to comment on Wyman's performance -- I did a veritable double-take and a big grin spread across my face as I heard his portrayal of the character Nicolai. He gave one of the two voices for the schizophrenic Russian a distinct impersonated inflection like the actor Christopher Walken -- how oddly appropriate! It gave me a good chuckle.

Somehow it's blood, and gore with humor, very good

Any additional comments?

I have always liked Sci-Fi but have stayed away from vampires and werewolves, this book changed my mind. I could not stop listening to it. Although I don't think I will be listening to any of the other authors.
