Publisher's summary

Monster Hunter International might be the premier monster eradication company in the business, but they’ve got competition.

When hunters from around the world gather in Las Vegas for a conference, a creature left over from a World War Two weapons experiment wakes up and goes on a rampage across the desert. A not-so-friendly wager between the rival companies turns into a race to see who can bag the mysterious creature first. Only there is far more to this particular case than meets the eye, and as Hunters fall prey to their worst nightmares, Owen Zastava Pitt and the staff of Monster Hunter International have to stop an ancient god from turning Sin City into a literal hell on earth.

Critic reviews

"Oliver Wyman narrates the entire tale with a swagger in his voice. Even the chapter headings sound aggressive. His characters are so unique that at times listeners may think there's a second narrator." ( AudioFile)

Book 4 down... heading to 5

Very entertaining. Franks is my favorite. Glad to see the next book will involve him more....

Always a Great Read or Listen

Really enjoy this and every book before. I drive a lot so entertainment is king. The story and story teller are great. I'm moving through these fast.

ENJOY!

Best series I've listened to.

I'm now a serious fan of this series and can't wait for the next book in this series. I highly recommend this for anyone looking for a great story.

Fun well narrated book

There should be a TV series like supernatural! I've read all the books and would love to see these broken into episodes in a series.

Awesome’

Always a great listen, they just keep getting better and better . Can’t wait for the next one

More of the Same, Which is Fine by Me

I read all four MHI books in a flurry of credit usage one week, and thought I'd dislocate something kicking myself as they were put on sale over and over again in subsequent months. The truth though is that I thoroughly enjoyed them then and am sure (with the possible exception of Alpha) will again.

One who notices such things may wonder at how the books appear to be getting shorter and shorter. I think this represents a fair measure of how the author has improved at tightening up his plotting and really developing a good pace that keeps you engaged and wanting to continue until there's no more book for you to plow through.

The monsters remain creative and the framework of the story allows for us to run into all sorts of new baddies without having to endure loads of travel scenes, probably the only good thing that can be said about the monsters coming to you. We also get little glimpses at some of our favorite characters' origins and how they've grown. Lastly, we get more hints that we're in for one heck of an endgame, with some more players making themselves known before the main event.

Anyone who may have wandered off after Alpha is strongly encouraged to give this one a try, particularly as we return to Z's stellar first-person narrative.

These are just fun books

Any additional comments?

These books deliver everything they promise. Lots of action. Lots of humor. Characters you want to get to know better and would go out and have a beer with. Plus tons of well thought out monsters. If you haven't read the rest of the series, I would start there. this book can stand on its own, but is much better paired with the info from the first books.

Dang, I Love this Series!

Any additional comments?

I could listen to as many MHI books as Correia will write. I love the characters; they're like old friends by now. Where he gets all his ideas is beyond me. If you liked the others books in the series, this is a no-brainer. Buy it.

Solid

Any additional comments?

This is a great series. I don't know how Correia manages to write so prolifically or so well, but he does. The narrator is fantastic. I wish them both the best.

This series just doesn't get stale!

I stumbled on this series, and was hooked in the first 15 minutes. Each story is original, and this was no exception. In fact this book is better than the previous books. Is that possible? If you like Harry Dresden, you'll like this series. The two series cover completely different material, but the underlying sense of humor and the original plots are common characteristics. And Zee and Harry are both tall and capable.

The downside of discovering a fresh and new book that becomes a series is the waiting! It's like waiting for Christmas when you were 5 years old. Wait, is that a bad thing?
