I highly recommend this book if you like modern-day, well written, action books. The premise is that monsters are real, that President Teddy Roosevelt put in place a bounty system for killing monsters, and there are professional monster hunters out there.
Couple this with a government agency charged with keeping the existence of monsters secret and you have a free-market oriented, weapon happy, monster killing environment.
I own every book in this series. It is awesome!!!! I've given copies of the book to buddies. Everyone I gave it to bought every other book in the series.
Warning - if you read the first book you may have sold your soul to reading every other book in this series. This is the Baen "here - try the crack for free! marketing method."
Thanks for the heads-up!
How do these compare to the 'Laundry Files' series of books by Charles Stross? (assuming that you've read any :)))
Thanks. I'll check it out.
Thanks for the tip! This sounds like a great read.
Excellent - just downloaded it for free on my Kindle O0
I'm more than half way through and it is a very entertaining book. I can see me eventually reading the rest of the series. Good stuff.

Glad you enjoyed it. The audio versions are also exceptionally well done.
I was given "monster hunter" swag for my birthday.
Finished the first one, and enjoyed it - the rest are on my 'to read' pile. O0
