By: John Birmingham | Series: David Hooper TrilogyFor fans of Jim Butcher and Kevin Hearne comes a heart-pounding new urban fantasy series featuring monster slayer Dave Hooper and his magical splitting maul.
When you drop a monster-killer on the Strip, all bets are off.
Holed up in Las Vegas after the tumultuous Battle of New Orleans, Dave is enjoying the VIP perks afforded a champion monster-slayer. He may be a superhero of swag and the toast of the town, but if some fire-breathing dragons have their way, odds are everyone will soon be toast. As the hordes from the UnderRealms regroup for their next attack, Dave parties with celebrities, lunches with A-listers, and gets his ass lawyered up—because his hellacious ex is looking for a piece of that sweet, sweet action.
It’s all good, until new monsters roll in, looking to parley with “the Dave.”
WTF, monsters. Do you think the Dave can’t spot a trap before he falls into it? And when things go to hell at warp 10, a suit from a shadow operation swoops in to offer Dave a deal he can’t refuse. Now Dave’s about to face off against an opponent who makes battling bloodthirsty behemoths look like child’s play—a ravishing Russian spy with a few superpowers of her own.

A Must-Have for History Enthusiasts and Young Readers!
Format: Paperback
As an avid history enthusiast and a parent, I am always on the lookout for engaging and educational books that can captivate my children's interest in the subject. "Great Battles for Boys: Bunker Hill to WWI" exceeded my expectations on all fronts, making it an absolute gem in our family library.
From the moment I picked up this book, I was impressed with the attention to detail and the beautifully presented information. The author, Joe Giorello, has a remarkable talent for simplifying complex historical events and presenting them in a manner that is both informative and accessible to young readers. This book is perfectly suited for boys aged 8-12, but it can certainly be enjoyed by readers of all ages.
The book takes readers on an incredible journey through some of the most significant battles in history, covering a wide range of conflicts from the American Revolution to World War I. Each battle is meticulously described, allowing young readers to visualize and understand the strategies, key figures, and outcomes of these momentous events. The inclusion of maps, illustrations, and photographs further enhances the reading experience, making it all the more immersive.
One aspect that sets "Great Battles for Boys" apart from other history books is its interactive nature. Throughout the chapters, readers are encouraged to actively engage in the material through trivia questions, hypothetical scenarios, and thought-provoking discussion points. This interactive approach not only keeps young readers engaged and entertained but also encourages critical thinking and a deeper understanding of the subject matter.
Additionally, I appreciated the inclusion of personal stories and firsthand accounts, which added a human element to the historical events. By highlighting the experiences of individual soldiers and their contributions, this book successfully humanizes the battles and helps young readers relate to the courageous men who fought on the frontlines.
In terms of writing style, Giorello has a knack for keeping the narrative engaging and exciting without sacrificing historical accuracy. The pacing is well-balanced, and the author's passion for history shines through in every chapter. It's clear that extensive research was conducted, and the information is presented in a manner that is both educational and entertaining.
In conclusion, "Great Battles for Boys: Bunker Hill to WWI" is an outstanding resource for history enthusiasts and young readers alike. With its engaging writing style, interactive elements, and comprehensive coverage of pivotal battles, this book is an excellent addition to any library. Highly recommended!

8yo son and mom love this book
Format: Paperback
I’m a mom of two boys and one girl. I would first like to address the people complaining about the title saying “for boys.” The author has addressed this too and it’s part of the reason why I purchased this book. Boys are falling behind in school and reading. Not sure why some people are allowed to review these books when they haven’t read them or purchased them. Do your research if you have a boy in your life. I would also like to point out that bookstores frequently have shelves dedicated to girls about strong women, strong girls, etc and yes boys can read books in those sections just like girls can read these Great Battles for Boys books.
My 8yo son loves history and is devouring this book. I highly recommend. This book is really exciting and I (mom) am enjoying it too. We use it for read aloud time and independent reading. As soon as I finish this review I will be ordering more in the series, per my sons request.
