Well ... how shall I put it ... the suggestion read "If you like monsters and guns, then you will love that". That I read, and agreed with.

I would like to however put that a little more precisely ... "If you like to play with your guns and knives every evening before going to bed, think that the NRA is the greatest invention of mankind, and want to read lots and lots about that, and something about monsters, then you will love that".
Best regards,

With the exception of adoring the NRA, (whom I generally wouldn't trust with string, let alone firearms), your sentence above summed up EXACTLY why I'm enjoying MHI.
It's fluff reading for me. I love the guns and tech, and I enjoy the nods to cryptozoology and folklore. Is MHI an incredibly well written masterpiece? Nope, but I like it nonethless.
Plus it's filling the void left by Dresden and Verus right now.
