For those not familiar, here's a repeat of my post from the
Re: Need More Sci Fi Book Suggestions thread:
Monster Hunter International by Larry Correia of the Monster Hunter Nation came out in the stores and on Amazon this week.
Larry is the guy that wrote the classic
H&K, because you suck and we hate you
I read the first chapter online some time ago and am saving the full book for a business trip coming up in a couple of weeks.
He also has MHI patches available again

I'm currently on p. 467 and I'm thoroughly enjoying the book. Get up, go get it.

Read the first 7 chapters online, free.
Totally hooked, pre-ordered the book on Amazon and got it yesterday.
Just ordered two patches, thanks for the heads-up.

On a mission to find it this weekend. Only downside of a small town, we have one tiny bookstore, so I had to wait to come into the real city or order online, and I like brick and mortar bookstores. It's the smell, I think.

The only problem with this book is that it will completely destroy you ability to enjoy most horror and supernatural fiction. I can't even watch something like True Blood without yelling "wheres the extraction team!" or "there called guns, BUY SOME!" at my TV.

I've read the preview chapters on the Baen website, and have it on order from Amazon. It's in transit. Grrrrr.

Just finished reading the book, if you don't have it, get it as soon as possible. This book kicks ass and takes names.
