Synopsis

Richard always believed he'd enjoy a few golden years before Death's bony hand reached for him. But what does he get? He gets to live across the hall from friggin' Stanley Kapcheck with his shiny bald head and perfect teeth that are all his own; Stanley Kapcheck who struts around like a peacock in his leather coat. Honestly! What kind of respectable senior citizen wears leather? But Stanley isn't your average senior citizen. He's a Hunter—a slayer of all things unnatural. He reveals to Richard that the one monster that has eluded him is the same beast that killed Richard's wife, and it's due to kill again before the next new moon.​​​​​​​The two men load up on ibuprofen and prune juice and embark on a cross-country demon-hunting adventure, but when The Devil Herself kidnaps Stanley, Richard realizes the line between Hunter and hunted is very thin, indeed, and the ornery octogenarian only has a few days left to trap The Devil, save Stanley, and slay the monster who murdered his bride.

Some monsters never die I was given a copy of this book for review. Being a senior citizen myself, the cover and description had my attention. I could easily relate to Richard, walker, and aches, as he tries to keep up with Stanley, the senior citizen hunter. The humor used here within made all the c......more

I really liked this book; over 4 stars but not quite 5. The "not quite" is because it felt like Richard's seething about Stanley was a bit over the top in the first half of the book, pretty much hatred, which didn't quite mesh - it was just a tad too harsh for his flawed but likeable character.
