Editorial reviews

Why we think it's Essential - Quick, who directed The Evil Dead? What action hero starred in The Blob? Which movie studio became synonymous with horror for producing Frankenstein and The Wolf Man? If you can answer these questions correctly, you'll likely be thrilled with Monster Hunter International. B-movie aficionados know there's a fine line between gleefully gory camp and flat-out dross. Not to worry, Monster Hunter International knows the line. Oliver Wyman brings just the right amount of bombastic, smirking swagger to this story of big guns, big action, and a heck of a lot of monsters. —Michael

Publisher's summary

Five days after Owen Zastava Pitt pushed his insufferable boss out of a 14th 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.

Surprised by how good the book was despite its weird beginning!

As a fantasy lover, this book was right up my alley. I didn't care for the narrator's portrayal of women voices and wasn't my favorite narrator but could definitely overlook it because the book was so good. I even laughed at times because of the sarcasm. I would definitely recommend if you're into fantasy vampires werewolves anything supernatural.

Awful narration

The narrator really ruins this whole thing. The book starts with an attack by a werewolf. Oliver Wyman sounds as if he might nod off and start snoring throughout the entire scene. And he delivers all of it that way. The same sleepy cadence and lack of inflection that he uses to describe mortal peril is the same that he uses to describe everything. I would recommend you buy the book and read it if you're interested in the series.

MHI where do I sign up!

Would you consider the audio edition of Monster Hunter International to be better than the print version?

Yes the performer is fantastic. Even though I am sure reading the book would be great anyway the audio version is an enhancement.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

The story is riveting and full of action, humour and just all around fun.

Any additional comments?

In my top 10 for sure.

Slow start, light read, ok by the end

Any additional comments?

This book was entertaining to hear, not sure it would have been the same to read. I would say that it is an easy listen and did become compelling about half way through (before that it was just "ok"). It had a lot of things in it that appeared extraneous or like the author was trying too hard to fit as many fantasy concepts in as he could.
