I'm pretty much a sucker for any John Ringo books or
collaborations. I wasn't disappointed
here. This is apparently an entire
series that I was unaware of before reading Urban Allies. That book was my introduction to Monster
Hunters International.
Iron Hand or Chad
or formal name of Oliver Chadwick Gardenier is the main focus, besides
monsters, of this novel.
The premise is that everything we have ever seen in B rated
monster movies, comic book horror and the SciFi channel is real. The governments of the world all maintain
secret organizations to keep the monsters under control. As a cost cutting measure many of those
governments sub-contract the work out to specialized monster hunting
companies. Chad was a key member of one of
those companies.
The book deals with many monster hunts, provides lots of
weapons details and some pro-tips from Chad for hunting monsters. There is some Seattle oriented not very subtle but
nevertheless humor in the book.
I recommend.

This book may have been received free of charge from a publisher or a publicist. That will NEVER have a bearing on my recommendations.
