She wants to hang out with her friends, get a good night's sleep, maybe go on a date. Yes, she hunts monsters she goes to university and now, she seems to want to be a little more normal.if there is such a thing. In this second book of the series, Kat is forced to step back and take a deeper look at herself. Kat doesn't want to be a hero.just a monster hunter. A couple monikers had me laughing out loud - I would share, but don't want to spoil the surprise.Īlthough this book contains a full story arc it does build on the previous and is best appreciated after reading Part-Time Monster Hunter - an exciting dive into the gritty post-apocalyptic South Africa Woode-Smith has created. The humor and friendship in this book provides a good foil to the violence and introspection. Well crafted narrative that tied the pieces together in a satisfying manner while opening questions for the rest of the series. New monsters are introduced - and Kat is forced to make difficult decisions. Kat's skills are improving, the stakes are higher, the over all story is darker and grittier but Kat remains true to who she is - an honorable, albeit snarky and irreverent, heroine.įrom a ridiculous but utterly believable lawsuit, to possibly the worst date night ever, to a simple job that went totally sideways, the action and drama never stops. And the "right" thing to do, well, that's not always so clear cut either. That which is morally right is not always legally correct.
