"This is New Orleans." That mantra had rung in Chad Gadenier's ears since his first day working in the Big Easy. Everything was different in New Orleans. The food. The climate. The monsters. Even the shadowy and reprehensible MCB was different. But that's just the beginning.

The real reason New Orleans is so different is a larval Great Old One growing day by day in power and just about ready to pop. If Chad can't convince "the powers that be" to get involved, not only New Orleans, but the entire world, is going to fall under the power of the nastiest of nasties.

Now on the outs with the US government and in exile from his usual job of saving the world, Chad must rally the forces of light against the coming darkness. The problem is one guy with a sword and a sub-gun isn't going to solve this one.

Fortunately, Chad's made a few friends over the years - and the Fey hate Old Ones as much as God's people, and they're not about to give up this world without a fight.

If the saints don't come marching in on this one...there won't be a final battle; there will be a final massacre. Now, where'd he put that number for the ditzy Fey princess?

One of the best! It CAN'T be the last one! NOooooooooo

Oh, man. This can't be the end--please! I am a retired cookie-baking, obsessive-reader-now-that-I-have-time, grandma who discovered the monster hunting genre with the first MHI book about a year ago, and what fun it has been. These books grab you from page 1, and at least for me, I simply can't put it down--then I want more. Please! More! The time between books is painful! The writing is beautifully done, the narrative almost lyrical. The plots are original and exceedingly well thought out. The characters stay true to form, and their interactions are consistent throughout the series. The fight scenes and weapons descriptions are detailed but not overdone. I am not a military or space opera fan (though I have tried and occasionally find something I really like), so I cannot speak to the rest of the writer(s)' work, but I do love these monster hunter books. The genre leaves room for soooo many more stories. These are literally the only books I buy without a thought if I cannot get them free from KUnltd or the library (I am on a really tight budget). More, please! Please?

Best Book in the Series

Reviewed in the United States on July 7, 2018

Verified Purchase

This is the third and probably unfortunately the last book in the Monster Hunter Memoirs series. It is by far the best edited story of the bunch.

Throughout the three books it has been foretold that Chad would die in battle. His death was truly heroic. The book is tightly written and has an excellent story flow.

One of the better aspects of the book was the two afterwards, one by Milo and the other by Earl. Both of them capture both the positive qualities of Chad and his glaring faults.

Although all of the main characters in the Monster Hunter books classify as super heroes (some with actual powers), Chad is the character across the entire series that has very strong weaknesses in his character. Those weaknesses make Chad what he is - both for good and for annoying.

If you enjoyed any book in the Monster Hunter Series, this book will really hit the sweet spot.

Enjoyable but not up to Correia's Main Series.

Reviewed in the United States on August 23, 2020

John Ringo is an excellent collaborative writer, but this is not a collaboration, and his weaknesses undermined an otherwise promising series. This is the third installment of the nost Gary Sue hunter imaginable: Chad is a chosen holy warrior, super genius, perfect marksman, so awesome with a sword that (unlike characters with limits) he kills monsters twenty times his size and major vampires with single chops of his super-katana. A multimillionaire, political genius, man-whoring sex God who has people demanding to be his servant. This overcompensating macho Gary Sue is the only reason the world isn't destroyed.

It turns out that these novels are waswntially canonized fan fixcyion, and they read like fan fiction: overcompensating main characters, a hundred times more sexual content than the main series, and a mysteriously unknown superhuman hero without limitations, adored by masses, feared by enemies.... Look, Ringo is a successful writer, but this series demonstrates that he has never matured past the mental age of 14. The cliches are endless. I'm sure that an endless supply of sexually insecure high school children will make this overcompensation of a story financially successful, but adults over the age of 25 might want to stick to the main series.

(I forgot that the super genous, elite Marine, master of everything is also a world-class musician the like of which even fairy courts have never encountered.)

And of course, if you want to see how only the Gary Sue enabled the entire MHI main story to exist, this is the campy fan fiction for you.

Terrible series.

Reviewed in the United States on August 1, 2020

I'm surprised Correia actually let these get published. The entire series, Ringo just tried to prove he could make a cooler character than Pitt.
Instead of getting sent back by a old Jewish man, Chad gets sent back by St. Peter.
Instead of being naturally gifted with languages, this guy has to write scholarly texts on a monster language.
Instead of dealing with Gnome gangs, we have Yakuza.
Instead of using big ganga rams knives, this character had to use a Samuri Sword.
Pitt has a somewhat messed up family, Ringo made this character's family even more messed up.
Healed by the Old Ones and their magic? Gotcha covered.
Want to know how The Boss got injured? Well, Chad was part of that too.
Pitt is a gun nut who does some of his own gunsmithing. Chad invented a mod to an Uzi that most hunters are still using today!
And the list goes on. And on.

Instead of trying to be original, Ringo must have spent the entire time he wrote in an effort to one-up Correia. And the character he created is not likable in any way.

Save your money for something else.

I've read all three of this particular series. They were all worth every penny. More action than you could shake a sword at. Great characters. I've read a few other Monster Hunter books written by Larry Correia and did not regret spending the money at all. I have read just about everything John Ringo has written and loved every one of those. These three books were about the best action stories I have ever had the pleasure of reading. Thank you both, Mr. Correia and Mr. Ringo, for several nights of intensely pleasurable reading. I really loved the combination of the action with the academic background.

Monster Hunter Memoirs is a great spin-off from the original Monster Hunter International series for those in need of a Monster Hunter fix whilst waiting for the next installment. Chad is a great character and Saints is the perfect ending to this trilogy. Highly recommended!

Too predictible

Reviewed in Canada on August 14, 2018

Verified Purchase

I like Ringo's writing style; his characters are usually bold, and the action loud. [Some spoilers ahead]

However, in this particular series the main character is just a little too capable. We already know he is going to succeed, because he ALWAYS succeeds. There's some complications here and there, but nothing that stops, or even really slows this guy down. And because of this, the book ultimately becomes predictable, and sort of boring, leading me to rate it a mere 3 stars.

He's a genius, super-soldier with supernatural friends, lots of favors to call in, and even the ultimate battle that MHI fights against a potentially extinction-level monster lacks any actual tension - the good guys are going to win, no important characters die, etc.

After about the 50th time that the author reinforces exactly how much of a know-it-all, bad-a$$ Chad is, I lost all enthusiasm for how the book ends. I already knew that super-Chad would win the day. The only sort of interesting bit came at the end, where Earl describes how Iron Hand finally bites the dust. Even knowing that he dies (incredibly valiantly and selflessly, of course, since he's the ultimate super-soldier), there's plenty of cliff-hanger left, leading me to believe that there's another book being planned.
