Pages : 353
Book Description
In a brilliant debut to a thrilling series, Grady Service gets news that his nemesis, the head of an incestuous clan of poachers, is to be released from prison. But something even more sinister is afoot in the Mosquito Wilderness. Service must call upon his every reserve to track, stalk, and capture the “ice hunter.” MEET GRADY SERVICE: former Marine, renowned tracker, conservation officer, and the last person any errant hunter wants to cross. In Ice Hunter—the first of a series of mysteries set in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula and celebrated for its intricate plots and outrageously unforgettable characters—Service defends his turf with the tenacity of a bear and the wisdom of an ancient. He shuns all creature comforts and consumerism and is most at home stalking the Mosquito Tract, his self-designated wilderness. Times are not easy for Service. As the summer season opens, he gets news that his nemesis, the despicable leader of an incestuous clan of poachers, is to be released from prison. But something even more sinister is afoot—something that inspires untold greed, involves giants of industry and politics, and renders human life dispensable. Service must call upon his every reserve to track, stalk, and capture the “ice hunter.” Full of grit and wilderness lore, Ice Hunter pulls you in and won’t let you go.

Brogan wasn't too sure what he was going to do next, but he did know he was going to fight till there was nothing left. He was a changed man now. His mother had known of the potential beast lurking inside him since he was a boy. She had always hoped that if for some reason this part of him was unleashed, it would be harnessed somehow, and directed towards good things and helping people. Sadly, those who interfered with Brogan's new perspective on life would witness true savagery first hand. He was not one to be messed with. But now his pain and hate, combined with his amazing strength and abilities, would create something no one could ever fathom. His loss, that one act of horrific and devastating violence, had created a force in him that was comparable only to nightmares. The force was still not fully known, even to himself, but it was growing stronger and angrier by the day, with more reason to fear it. It was a force that was even more powerful and terrifying than love itself, and there would be no stopping or controlling him now. Before, Brogan was a man with a beast lurking inside him, waiting to be released. Now he was a beast within a beast, trying to break free.

Fear and Loathing in America
Author: Hunter S. Thompson
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1439126364
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 1116
Book Description
From the king of “Gonzo” journalism and bestselling author who brought you Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas comes another astonishing volume of letters by Hunter S. Thompson. Brazen, incisive, and outrageous as ever, this second volume of Thompson’s private correspondence is the highly anticipated follow-up to The Proud Highway. When that first book of letters appeared in 1997, Time pronounced it "deliriously entertaining"; Rolling Stone called it "brilliant beyond description"; and The New York Times celebrated its "wicked humor and bracing political conviction." Spanning the years between 1968 and 1976, these never-before-published letters show Thompson building his legend: running for sheriff in Aspen, Colorado; creating the seminal road book Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas; twisting political reporting to new heights for Rolling Stone; and making sense of it all in the landmark Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail '72. To read Thompson's dispatches from these years—addressed to the author's friends, enemies, editors, and creditors, and such notables as Jimmy Carter, Tom Wolfe, and Kurt Vonnegut—is to read a raw, revolutionary eyewitness account of one of the most exciting and pivotal eras in American history.
