Join us for a fantastic and instructive evening on Thursday, November 12, at 7:00 PM. Larry Correia's biography
on his web site reads: "Larry Correia. Utah, USA. Description: Male,
33. Very large. Very bald. Occupation: Writer. Merchant of Death
(retired). Firearms Instructor. Accountant." Linda is a particular fan
of his first novel, Monster Hunter International, in which Owen Pitt becomes the newest recruit in a monster killing organization. His current project is The Grimnoir Chronicle, a fantasy/alternative history where magic began to randomly appear in the mid 1800s, set in the early 20th century.

According to his web site, yes, if John Brown's
name compels you to sing to him, it's okay. This Writers of the Future
winner and OSC Literary Boot Camp participant's debut novel postulates
a dark fantasy with a very disturbing premise -- a world where the days
of a person's life can be harvested, bought, and stolen – in Servant of a Dark God.
Talen is a resident of this world, living in a place where the Divine
ruler who protects men from the soul-eaters is missing ... and an
ancient power, Hunger, is on the rise to devour men like cattle.

Fantasy author David Farland
wears many hats. He also is author David Wolverton, a video game
designer, and an editor and teacher (many of his students have become
published novelists -- some best-selling ones!). In The Wyrmling Horde,
The Earthking's son, Flameweaver Fallion Orden, used his sorcerous
powers to unite all of the shadow worlds into "One True World" where
mankind can live in peace and harmony. In Chaosbound, Borenson is bound to warrior Aaath Ulber as the worlds merge, and the choice to bind the worlds reveals its costs.

Five days after Owen Zastava Pitt pushed his insufferable boss out of a fourteenth story window, he woke up in the hospital with a scarred face, an unbelievable memory, and a job offer.

 

It turns out that monsters are real. All the things from myth, legend, and B-movies are out there, waiting in the shadows. Officially secret, some of them are evil, and some are just hungry. On the other side are the people who kill monsters for a living. Monster Hunter International is the premier eradication company in the business. And now Owen is their newest recruit.

 

It's actually a pretty sweet gig, except for one little problem. An ancient entity known as the Cursed One has returned to settle a centuries old vendetta. Should the Cursed One succeed, it means the end of the world, and MHI is the only thing standing in his way. With the clock ticking towards Armageddon, Owen finds himself trapped between legions of undead minions, belligerent federal agents, a cryptic ghost who has taken up residence inside his head, and the cursed family of the woman he loves.

 

Business is good . . .
