Hard-hitting stories from the creator of Monster Hunter International feature the first short story collection from best-selling author Larry Correia. Known for his urban fantasy and military adventure novels, Correia presents fourteen action-packed tales filled with demons, monsters, vampires, and cosmic horrors, alongside an interdimensional insurance salesman. Readers will encounter an elven princess on a mission to save her people, a samurai pirate seeking vengeance against a colossal sea beast, and a magic-wielding P.I. navigating Detroit's streets. The collection includes the origin story of Monster Hunter International in "Bubba Shackleford's Professional Monster Hunters," as well as the backstory of a key character from Dead Six in "Sweothi City." Celebrate the holidays with Jake Sullivan from the Grimnoir Chronicles in "Detroit Christmas." Correia also pays homage to David Drake's Hammer's Slammers series and explores the impact of a vampire who was once a Green Beret in Jonathan Maberry's V Wars universe. This collection features three previously unpublished stories, including "Murder on the Orient Elite" and "The Adventures of Tom Strange, Interdimensional Insurance Salesman," along with "Blood on the Water." Fans of action, fantasy, and horror will find much to enjoy in these tales.
