Re: Monster Hunter International
I ripped through the first seven online chapters, and can't wait to find out what evil lurks on the old cargo ship. Because obviously something had to be left behind.

I just had a mental picture of Sir Integra Wingate Hellsing(Head of the Hellsing Organization) having a conversation with Quentin Travers(Head of the Watchers council)Highspeed wrote:The genre of fighting supernatural monsters has been ruined for me by having to sit through endless episodes of 'Buffy'.
Q: The Slayer is destined to fight the darkness.
I: You don't fight monsters with Children you fool!..
I: You fight monsters with bigger, scarier monsters.

I finished it last night. It gets kind of pulpy, but that's OK.
He's also pretty good at dialog and character interaction. And his sense of humor overlaps with mine pretty well.
"Boy. You not very good at this job. [spoiler]Werewolf scar you. Wight paralyze you. Fall off boat. Vampire beat you. Policeman beat you. Gargoyle chase you, and now you fall off car. Moving car at that. Maybe I think we should have picked some other person.[/spoiler] You can no seem to help. You are like, how you say.... punching bag. You say, hey monster, here I am. Hit me in head."
This had me falling off my couch.

When I read one of the older versions of MHI, I thought it was pretty good, but could've done with some better editing. I'll have to pick up a copy of this version at some point.

Thank God the book came! I'm taking it to my mother-in-law's house this week. I have to avoid politics (she's a Kennedy Dhimmicrat) so I'll read it all before I come home. Almost makes me wish I was an accountant!

...even before I read MHI, my response to seeing a poster for the stars of the latest Twilight movies was "I see 2 targets and a collaborator".

It was fantastic! I buy most of my sci fi from baen via webscriptions and I can't say enough good things about them. I love drm free ebooks.

Re: Monster Hunter International
thanks, Highspeed. We may have just found the official motto for this site.Come back when you have a proper name, a chainsaw, some tattoos and look like a man instead of a homosexual.
There must be an end to this intimidation by those who come to this great country, but reject its culture.
