The novel’s poignancy and the dark nature of its conflict are offset with brilliantly sweet and funny scenes like Owen’s meeting with Poly, the one-eyed, comic-book loving cyclops. Owen’s relationships with his father, and with the lost hunter and ex-nemesis, Lococo, are authentically moving. We’re talking sheer fun and lots of firepower, here.Ĭorreia writes with a droll sense of humor and doesn’t compromise on characterization two reasons I love the Monster Hunter International series.
