"Monster Hunter Alpha (Monster Hunters International Book 3)" by Larry Correia
  https://www.amazon.com/Monster-Hunter-MONSTER-HUNTER-Paperback/dp/B00QO3ZXJK/
Book number three 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.  The accountant even somewhat reminds me of Owen Deathstalker.  If you like Urban Fantasy, you will love this hardcore story.  If not, oh well.

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 federal agent Franks, who would not like Frankenstein's monster ?
But this book is is not about Owen Pitt, Skippy, and Franks.  Earl Harbinger, the 100+ year old werewolf in charge of MHI, has been told by an old friend that there are werewolves hanging around a nearby town. So Harbinger takes off to investigate, by himself.  After all, he is the meanest and baddest werewolf on the planet.  Or so he thinks.
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 if you annoy him.
