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.
I totally agree with you. It's not classic literature, it's just meant to be a fun read, which it was for me. I'm just reading a few short stories from Dresden and then I'm going to start Vendetta. I'll probably get myself up to date with Monster Hunters, then read Dresden from the beginning with Side Jobs this time (I forgot I had it on my last re-read ), then hopefully Skin Game will have been released. Then I'll start Alex Verus based on all the recommendations here.

It's good to have a plan .
