I really enjoyed this novel and had so much fun listening to it. I’m not a huge apocalyptic genre fan or like war heavy stuff so some parts of this were rough to get through or just not my cup of tea, but this will definitely stick with me for a while and I did enjoy myself. Heed the trigger warnings!!!!

This was a hard book to read, but wow, was it great. With just enough humor sprinkled in to make the horror digestible, Manhunt left me feeling deeply unsettled. I'm newer to the horror genre, so this was a lot to handle, but the story and characters were so beautifully written that it made the discomfort worth it.

Violent, gory and disturbing in the best possible way. Felker-Martin does not shy away from the darkness in all of us. All of the characters eventually have to face the lies they tell themselves. There is a note of hope but it's slender and fragile. Not a book for the faint-hearted or weak-stomached.
