<b>For fans of Jim Butcher and Kevin Hearne comes an action-packed new urban fantasy series featuring a tough, bleakly funny, down-on-his luck oil rig worker with an unlikely destiny as a monster-slayer and savior of the planet.</b><br> <b> </b><br> <i>“Monsters,” said Vince Martinelli. “There are monsters on the rig, Dave.”</i><br> <br>Dave Hooper has a hangover from hell, a horrible ex-wife, and the fangs of the IRS deep in his side. The last thing he needs is an explosion at work. A real explosion. On his off-shore oil rig.<br> <br> But this is no accident, and despite the news reports, Dave knows that terrorists aren’t to blame. He knows because he killed one of the <i>things</i> responsible.<br> <br> When he wakes up in a hospital bed guarded by Navy SEALs, he realizes this is more than just a bad acid trip. Yeah, Dave’s had a few. This trip is way weirder.<br> <br> Killing a seven-foot-tall, tattooed demon has transformed the overweight, balding safety manager into something else entirely. An honest-to-A$%& monster-slayer.
