Book Of The Hunt

A group of animals search for the perfect book at the library.

Don't Sweat. Don't Laugh. Don't draw attention to yourself. And most of all, whatever you do, do not fall in love with one of them. Gene is different from everyone else around him. He can't run with lightning speed, sunlight doesn't hurt him and he doesn't have an unquenchable lust for blood. Gene is a human, and he knows the rules. Keep the truth a secret. It's the only way to stay alive in a world of night—a world where humans are considered a delicacy and hunted for their blood. When he's chosen for a once in a lifetime opportunity to hunt the last remaining humans, Gene's carefully constructed life begins to crumble around him. He's thrust into the path of a girl who makes him feel things he never thought possible—and into a ruthless pack of hunters whose suspicions about his true nature are growing. Now that Gene has finally found something worth fighting for, his need to survive is stronger than ever—but is it worth the cost of his humanity?

This memoir is a compilation of fifteen hunting stories recanted with high-stakes enthusiasm, making the reader feel like they're right there with the author- on the hunt

Brings vividly to life the centrality of hunting to medieval societies and also offers an historical perspective on the current debates concerning hunting.

John Barsness, author of Western Skies and Montana Time, shares his adventures pursuing big game around the world, from Montana to Alaska, Africa to the Czech Republic. For John, the hunt is much more than the trophy. Sometimes funny, and always engaging, he shares with us the entire experience of the hunt, from meditations on the concept of "sport" itself to the adrenaline rush of the shot. In The Life of the Hunt, an appreciation for wild things meets the thrill of the chase head-on and blends into a harmonious philosophy. Hunting connects us to the patterns that govern our lives: life and death, past and future. Barsness says it best, "I cannot imagine an existence without a taste of the life of the game". This is John's best book yet.
