Monster Hunter Quarterly

A project of Emby Press (see other related projects).

This project is believed to be defunct. (August 2015)

About

Monster hunters have long been glorified in the pages of short stories and novels, but there is another, almost perfect length for these adventures: the novella. A novella is just short enough to read before bed, but long enough to create atmosphere, to introduce multiple layers of complexity and to tangle characters into a knot that is truly satisfying to unwind. Monster Hunter Quarterly is dedicated to this type of storytelling. Each volume will present exactly 4 novellas, some of which will be stand-alone tales and some of which will be continuations of our favorite character’s adventures.
