![]() ![]() The villain in this book is far more menacing because he’s much more human. Lord Machado was an over-the-top cipher of a villain, a kind of nebulous presence that felt like a bad retread of all the most camp Dark Lords from epic fantasy (TVTropes). There’s a lot that makes Monster Hunter Vendetta an improvement on the first book. ![]() Nothing is ever easy for a monster hunter. And Grant Jefferson is back at MHI after his brief stint in Hollywood, apparently eager for some more monster-hunting action. But it’s not easy: there’s a spy inside MHI, and Owen has a protective detail assigned to him from the Monster Control Bureau. Owen, understandably not interested in such a trip, has to find out how to stop this necromancer. ![]() Oh, and he wants to send Owen through the portal as a gift to his Elder God master, the Dread Lord. It sounds very similar, I know, but there are some important differences-in this case, the necromancer has a past with Monster Hunter International. This time instead of rushing to stop the shadowy Lord Machado from opening a portal to the realm of the Elder Gods, Owen must stop a shadowy English necromancer from opening a portal to the realm of the Elder Gods. Monster Hunter Vendetta continues the storyline from the first book in the series. the Old Ones/Elder Gods/Creepy Extradimensional Squid Monsters. ![]()
