NEW ENTRY IN THE BESTSELLING MONSTER HUNTER INTERNATIONAL SERIES BY
DRAGON AWARD-WINNING AUTHORS LARRY CORREIA AND SARAH A. HOYT
REVENGE IS A MOTHER
When Owen Pitt and the rest of the Monster Hunter International crew are
called away to mount a months-long rescue mission in a monster-infested
nightmare dimension, Julie Shackleford--Owen's wife and descendant of
MHI founder Bubba Shackleford--is left behind. Her task: hold down the
fort and take care of her new baby son, Ray.
But then a routine field call brings her face-to-face with an
unspeakable evil calling itself Brother Death. Julie is the Guardian of
a powerful ancient artifact known as the Kamaresh Yar, and Brother Death
longs for it. In the wrong hands, it could destroy reality as we know
it. Julie would die before giving it up. Then little Ray goes missing,
taken by Brother Death. The price for his safe return? The Kamaresh Yar.
To reclaim her son, Julie Shackleford must fight her way through
necromantic death cults, child-stealing monsters, and worse. And she'll
have to do it all before Brother Death can unleash the Kamaresh Yar. It
may be one woman against an army of monsters, but Julie Shackleford is
no ordinary woman--she's maybe the toughest mother on the planet!

About Larry Correia and the Monster Hunter International series:

horrifying array, good struggling against the darkness, and most of all
people--gorgeously flawed human beings faced with horrible moral choices
that force them to question and change and grow." --Jim Butcher
"[A] no-holds-barred all-out page turner that is part science fiction,
part horror, and an absolute blast to read." --Bookreporter.com
"If you love monsters and action, you'll love this book. If you love
guns, you'll love this book. If you love fantasy, and especially horror
fantasy, you'll love this book." --Knotclan.com
"A gun person who likes science fiction--or, heck, anyone who likes
science fiction--will enjoy [these books] . . . The plotting is
excellent, and Correia makes you care about the characters . . . I read
both books without putting them down except for work . . . so whaddaya
waitin' for? Go and buy some . . . for yourself and for stocking
stuffers." --Massad Ayoob

International will delight fans of action horror with elaborate
