This is an anthology of stories that were originally written in Czech by Czech authors, set in my Monster Hunter International universe, and published in the Czech Republic, but now by popular demand, have been translated into English.
The e-book will be available at Baen.com on Thursday. . https://www.baen.com/monster-hunter-fantom.html
Unless there’s been a change that I’m not aware of, it’s not coming out Thursday, it’s coming out tomorrow.
I am very much looking forward to it. Thanks!
Seems it’s available today (Tuesday). I pre-ordered, but logging out, it is available for purchase.
When will this be available in a book format??
And all I can see is an animated set of armor coming to chop up a dude with an Uzi. I sincerely hope he’s got some more impressive hardware nearby!
Looking forward to this one!
This is the definition of scraping through the bottom of the MHI barrel for a few shekels.
Heh. Because so many other authors are popular enough in a foreign country that their authors want to do an antho in that world in their language published in their country, and then by popular demand from the US customers, it gets translated into English, but all those other authors would like totally turn that down on principle. 😀
Cope and seethe, bitch. 😀
“Shekels”? 🤨 You’re really using that line?
Two different comments from two different emails on two different posts within 4 minutes, but from the same IP.
We got us a genius up in here. 😀
Two stories in and I’m really enjoying this collection.
Just in time for my flight overseas. More monster hunting goodness!
Is there going to be a physical print of this book? When is Vendetta going to have a reprint?
I really wanted to love this one as I’ve spent a lot of time in the Czech Republic and Slovakia. I excitedly pre-ordered the audiobook. Unfortunately, it suffered from a mediocre translator (a lot of idiomatic stuff was just left verbatim) and an editor who didn’t catch a lot of errors that made the flow harder to catch. (e.g. “She was a tutor and a children”) Larry’s story was great, of course. But, I got about 2 more deep and I had to return the book . . .
I’m looking forward to the next installment of the main story!!!
FYI for those of us who still prefer the dead-trees versions…
Amazon is showing a release date of 01/18/2025 for the paperback of this one. Just pre-ordered mine.
