#4 in the groundbreaking New York Times bestselling series.

Monster Hunter International might be the premier monster eradication company in the business, but they’ve got competition.

When hunters from around the world gather in Las Vegas for a conference, a creature left over from a World War Two weapons experiment wakes up and goes on a rampage across the desert. A not-so-friendly wager between the rival companies turns into a race to see who can bag the mysterious creature first.

Only there is far more to this particular case than meets the eye, and as Hunters fall prey to their worst nightmares, Owen Zastava Pitt and the staff of Monster Hunter International have to stop an ancient god from turning Sin City into a literal hell on earth.

He burst onto the literary scene with his Monster Hunter International series, a perfect showcase of his ability to write characters that are both tough and relatable, while throwing them into extraordinary, often absurd situations. The series captivated readers with its mix of humor, gunfire, and monster-slaying action—everything a fan of urban fantasy could want, and more.

Larry’s works often explore themes of duty, honor, and the grey areas of morality. His protagonists aren’t flawless heroes, but people driven by a sense of justice and a relentless desire to protect those who can’t protect themselves. This combination of realism and fantastical elements makes his work stand out in a genre full of larger-than-life characters. His books don’t just offer action—they delve into the personal stakes of those who find themselves in extraordinary circumstances, giving readers a chance to connect with characters in ways that feel visceral and honest.

Beyond his Monster Hunter International series, Larry has also worked in the Grimnoir Chronicles and The Saga of the Forgotten Warrior series, further solidifying his place as a go-to author for fans of urban fantasy and science fiction.

Whether he’s writing about a team of misfits fighting to save the world from supernatural threats or exploring darker, more nuanced themes of power and corruption, Larry’s books are known for one thing: they never let up. They pull readers into fast-paced worlds where danger lurks at every turn, and the only way out is to fight like hell.

For Larry, writing is a chance to create worlds where readers can escape into action and adventure, while also getting a glimpse of what it takes to survive the battles that aren’t always so clear-cut. It’s a journey that’s just as thrilling as it is thought-provoking—one that keeps readers coming back for more.

Monster Hunter

In a world where monsters lurk in the shadows and the supernatural is an everyday reality, the Monster Hunter series by Larry Correia brings a refreshing mix of explosive action, dark humor, and heart-pounding adventure. Forget everything you think you know about traditional urban fantasy—this series flips the script, offering a unique blend of gun-toting anti-heroes, dangerous creatures, and a touch of the absurd.

The Monster Hunter series follows a ragtag group of misfit hunters who have taken on the dangerous and lucrative job of eliminating the world’s deadliest monsters. From the first book, Monster Hunter International, readers are thrown into a world where no creature is safe, and the only way to survive is to outgun or outwit the terrifying supernatural threats that plague humanity. The stakes are high, and the action never lets up, as these hunters face creatures of all shapes and sizes—from vampires to werewolves, to much darker things lurking beneath the surface.

At its core, the series is about more than just killing monsters. It's about duty, honor, and what it means to fight for something bigger than yourself. Each character, from the tough-as-nails protagonist Owen Zastava Pitt to his team of colorful and capable misfits, is more than just a monster-slayer—they’re people with flaws, dreams, and personal demons. The bonds they form, the conflicts they face, and the growth they undergo make the Monster Hunter series a journey as much about the characters as it is about the battles they fight.

Larry Correia’s signature blend of fast-paced action, gun-fight intensity, and clever world-building makes this series stand out in a genre often dominated by more traditional heroes and vampires. His witty dialogue and dark humor add a unique flavor to the traditional monster-hunting story, creating a world that feels lived-in and richly detailed, where danger is always around the corner, but the characters' courage and camaraderie shine through.

Perfect for fans of urban fantasy and supernatural thrillers, the Monster Hunter series is a thrilling ride that doesn’t hold back. If you’ve ever wondered what it would be like to live in a world where fighting monsters is just another day at the office, this series is your answer.
