Synopsis

I've always known I was a monster.

My mother abandoned me when I was ten years old because I have a freakish mutant disease that makes me incapable of feeling pain. I bounced from one foster family to another because too many people like to test my medical condition in a game of "Try to Make Ollie Scream." At sixteen, I killed a man for taking that game too far.

Two years later, I'm still on the run in Kodiak, Alaska. Here, I'm the most dangerous person around, until I come face to face with a creature that should only exist in folklore. The monster is an aswang, and I, with my medical anomaly, am uniquely qualified to hunt the beast that haunts the night. At least, that's what the two scarred, mostly crazy 'swang hunters tell me when they kidnap me and take me to Fear University, a school where young students learn to hunt and kill aswangs.

For once in my life, I belong. I'm needed. I make a home for myself inside the university masquerading as an old Alaskan prison. But when certain truths come to light and even more lies are exposed, I fear that I, Ollie Andrews, am the worst kind of monster of all. And, maybe, they should be hunting me.

Goodreads review by Jessica ❥Chatterbooks Book Blog❥ on September 22, 2016

4.5 stars This is my first book by this author so I didn't really know what to expect. I have never read a book about aswangs. That alone made this book interesting to me from the beginning. I love paranormal fantasy, and I thought I had read about most paranormal beings. I was excited to come acros......more

Goodreads review by Laurie (barksbooks) on June 08, 2018

I’m not fond of the title of this one. It gives the book a generic feeling of YA or NA and does the book a disservice because it’s a gritty, violent and action-packed story that deserves a title such as Aswang: Demon Dogs! That’s catchier, don’t you think? Or maybe Devil Dogs Want to Eat Your Tasty......more

Goodreads review by Claire - The Coffeeholic Bookworm on January 27, 2016

For once in my life. I have finally read the most realistic, if not the most comprehensive, novel about aswangs, written by a non-Filipino. And I am impressed with Meg Collett's writing prowess because she was able to inject fear through this petrifying and blood-curling mythical creature. Back when......more

Goodreads review by 1-Click Addict Support Group on September 24, 2015

This book, let me tell you. I was not expecting any of what Fear University brought to the table. It was like a multi-cultural buffet. There was an abundance of adventure, suspense, humor and sadness. There was friendship and family, along with a multitude of wary characters that could friend or foe......more

Goodreads review by Ezi on May 25, 2018

If you liked Ann Aguirre’s , the. You will like this one. It has an unknown monster with leaders of the human resistance proving to be less than honest about the beast. Also, the leaders seem to have their own agenda in the battle against the beast. I liked it a lot and will continue the series......more
