Publisher's Summary

Two multiple New York Times best-selling authors team up to expand Larry Correia's Monster Hunter universe!

When marine private Oliver Chadwick Gardenier is killed in the marine barrack bombing in Beirut, somebody who might be Saint Peter gives him a choice: Go to heaven, which, while nice, might be a little boring, or return to earth. The Boss has a mission for him, and he's to look for a sign. He's a marine: He'll choose the mission.

Unfortunately, the sign he's to look for is "57". Which, given the food services contract in Bethesda Hospital, creates some difficulty. Eventually it appears that God's will is for Chad to join a group called Monster Hunters International and protect people from things that go bump in the night. From there, things trend downhill.

Monster Hunter Memoirs is the (mostly) true story of the life and times of one of MHI's most effective - and flamboyant - hunters. Protips for up-and-coming hunters range from how to dress appropriately for jogging (low-profile body armor and multiple weapons) to how to develop contacts among the Japanese yakuza to why it's not a good idea to make billy goat jokes to trolls.

Grunge harkens back to the Golden Days of Monster Hunting, when Reagan was in office, Ray and Susan Shackleford were top hunters, and Seattle sushi was authentic.

Lots of people hate it, but I dig it

Okay, so I know a lot of people hate the 'Chad'-iness of the protagonist, and if you look at this as a "true fiction" then that would make sense. However if you look at this like the main character is Deadpool, it becomes much more fun and a bit ridiculous. Yes, he is larger than life-- it's his Journal after all. If you were writing your own story, wouldn't you turn yourself into a "Mary sue?"

I had a great time listening to the whole saga, I only have one regret though throughout the saga; What happened in New York?!

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
