Redge reviewed Monster Hunter International by Larry Correia
None
4 stars
Disclaimer: I am neither a gun nut / connoisseur nor do I usually enjoy "eldritch horrors" or splatter.
And although this book contains all of the above (and generous amounts, to boot), it was still a very enjoyable read for me. The tone was snarky enough to keep me entertained when things got a bit too splattery for my taste.
I liked the cast of characters and rooted for them (yes, even Agent Franks), though not everybody made it through alive or in one piece.
One of my favourite quotes:
"Everyone dug down into the ditch, prepared to fight. Nervous but competent. Scared but professional. We were ready to put some smack down. Not bad for an accountant, a librarian, a schoolteacher, and a stripper.”
Not bad at all. :)
