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.

Great beginning to a fun series

#Audible1, loved this book. This hooked me into the series with a great story and performance. have since listened to the rest, and particularly liked the Monster Hunter Memoirs books as well. Can't wait for more titles.

Departure for me

This isn't something I would normally go for but I'm glad I did. It's still fluff but I quite enjoyed it and the premise is clever. I'm grateful I listened as an audio book because I don't think that I would have stuck with it if I'd gone for the printed version

Pretty amazing

Hooked from the start. I could talk about the book but lots of reviews here already for that. It's the narration that deserves an award because some of the voices make you wonder if it's just one guy. I highly recommend the book and am going to hunt down more books narrated by Oliver Wyman.

An accidental goldmine

Absolutely fantastic series of books. Just unrealistic enough to keep us out of reality long enough to enjoy life for a while. Not my genre in the least going in but will be from now on!!!

Great story, although not for me.

I love monster novels but MHI just doesn't make the cut for this listener. It's well-narrated, well-written with good characterization and lots of action... but there are too many military-like scenes and endless jargon about guns (which bored me). Also, I was disappointed that the monsters are vampires instead of more imaginative creatures. Not very original, in my humble opinion. In any event, this will be a great series for many readers who are into non-stop action and weaponry.

Best listen in a long time!

Give it the first chapter, it gets great! Like the film version of Star Ship Troopers, it's all the cheese of monster stories mixed with paramilitary flavour and gratuitous descriptions of guns and ammo. Believable characters, great descriptions, and exactly right voice work. Recommended !
