"Monster Hunter Vendetta (Monster Hunter International Book 2)" by Larry Correia
https://www.amazon.com/Monster-Hunter-Vendetta-Larry-Correia/dp/1439133913/Book number two of an eight book dark fantasy series. There are several other books that are spinoffs from the series, prequels and such. I first read this book in 2011. I reread the well printed and well bound MMPB published by Baen that I bought new on Amazon rather than find the book in my garage stash. I have all of the books in the series and am rereading through them.
Anita Blake meets Buffy the Vampire Slayer and turns into a guy named Owen Pitt. An accountant turns into a Monster Hunter after a close encounter with a werewolf in his office. Even somewhat reminds me of Owen Deathstalker. If you like Urban Fantasy, you will love this hardcore story. If not, oh well.
https://www.amazon.com/Deathstalker-1-Simon-R-Green/dp/1625672071/The story is sound, the concept is good, the good guys are imperfect and the bad guys are real bad.
And, I like Skippy. It just works that an Uzbekistan Orc can fly a Hind 24 with the best of them.
I also like agent Franks. Who would not like Frankenstein's monster ?
The author has a website. Note, the author does not suffer fools at all and will write a 2,000 word essay on why you suck.
