Publisher Description
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?

"My gosh, I wish that book was longer! But, even though it was short, it definetly wasn't sweet. The Hunt, was exciting, thrilling, addicting, and most of all freakin' creepy! I couldn't imagine living in that world, I'm a paranoid person to begin with, and this book made it worse! But, I can say that it is now one of my favorite books, and I cannot wait to get my hands on the next one. Andrew Fukuda, I raise my glass to the."

“Runnette does an excellent job of slowly adding layers of emotion and confusion to the character, and his cool delivery of the narration adds to the suspense.

The scenario of Andrew Fukuda's ‘The Hunt' is so wildly fantastic (in a good way) that narrator Sean Runnette delivers just what this story needs: a clear, steady voice.

" Wow, this was good! Loved the new take on the vampire tale. And while I'm sure I *should* have seen that twist coming at the end, I was shocked. Bring on the second book! "

" A debt of gratitude is owed Fukuda. His vampire dystopian is bloody creepy and the plot tears along like a fang through flesh! "
— Daniel, 6/11/2013 -
" Wow, this book was AMAZING!! It was totally gruesome and suspenseful and sad all at the same time! Highly recommend, especially if you are a fan of the Hunger Games. "

" it took me a long time to get into this book. the beginning drags a little bit, but i get how they have to explain things at first and all. but once it got to the ending i was on the edge of my seat, it was so awesome. and the ending was a shocker. so i hope the second one comes out soon. "

" It's a easy read, and fairly fun. Exactly what I expected it to be when I decided to picked it up. It's nothing "wow", but it's worth reading. Will look forward to the 2nd book. "
— Fiona, 9/11/2012 -
" 2.5 stars. The vampires didn't fulfill my expectations. They were stupid. I thought the story moved too slowly and some things weren't expounded upon to make them believable. And why exactly were humans called hepers? "
