![]() ![]() ![]() Our hero, Owen Pitt (brother of the heavy metal artist Mosh Pitt - not kidding about that one, either), gets involved in the monster hunting business when he defeats his evil-boss-turned-werewolf in single combat. These days, the only thing they fear is the EPA (and Fish and Wildlife, and OSHA, and…). In the years since, Monster Hunter has made its founder’s family rich by collecting government-sponsored bounties on supernatural creatures like werewolves, zombies, and vampires. The company called Monster Hunter International was founded when a group of good Southern boys got a lynch mob together in order to drive some unsavory elements (read: vampires) out of their town. The plot reads like something intended for a weekend of tabletop gaming, complete with prophetic visions from the storyteller to keep the protagonists on track. Because it was self-published and only later picked up by Baen, Monster Hunter International shows no sign of an editor’s pen. I don’t have space to cover all the flaws in this book, so I’ll just hit the highlights.

To be honest, there’s not much I can say that I didn’t say a couple of days ago about the first one. ![]() Because of course our protagonist is conveniently closed to important historical occasions. But it’s good having something I actually know* about as the setting, not just “medieval Welshness occurs”. I am led to believe they keep doing that for a while, with various mildly improbably escapes and so forth, so it may be a backdrop I stay used to. Shockingly, given how much I enjoyed the first one, I continue to be much enamoured of the doings of Brother Cadfael – this time, with additional historical shenanigans, as it’s more clearly entrenched in the history of the period (a few years after A Morbid Taste for Bones), and Stephen and Matilda are having it out to decide who gets to be monarch. And when I know the whole series is 20+ books long, so it’s not even like I have to pace myself to make sure it lasts me, what am I supposed to do? If you answer “exercise some restraint”, then I’m afraid you don’t know me well enough. The problem with murder mysteries, right, is that once I’m in the mood for them, it’s really really hard to… stop. Did I just immediately buy and read the second Cadfael book?
