The One Who Eats Monsters	comment	The One Who Eats Monsters is a 2017 YA urban fantasy sapphic romance novel by Casey Matthews. Long ago, before history split in two, the elder monster Erynis was banished from civilized lands, never to be welcome among gods or kings. Fast forward untold millennia to the modern day, and a temporarily weakened Ryn is captured by a gang of nuclear arms smugglers, and then later "rescued" by the US military. The military mistakes her for a feral child, and brings her back to the US.Turns out there's a loophole in the ancient banishment that allows Ryn to enter the United States if she was invited by its people. Unfortunately, the banishment still makes her subject to human laws, so she can't just escape from the mental institution they place her in. Luckily for her, eighteen months later, funding cuts force the institution closed, and Ryn is released into a group home. With her newly regained freedom, she goes back to her life's purpose; Hunting and consuming monsters both human and supernatural. On one of her night time hunts, she runs across Naomi Bradford, daughter of a Republican senator, and finds out that a cabal of spirits (here called Asura) is targeting her for assassination. Naomi is rather pretty and her soul smells nice, so Ryn makes an unbreakable vow to protect her.

The One Who Eats Monsters / int_1161fb48	type	Bizarre Alien Biology
The One Who Eats Monsters / int_1161fb48	comment	Bizarre Alien Biology: Among Ryn's various biological differences from humans, she has six gill-like slits on her back, from which she can produce black, razor-sharp fibres she calls her "kanaf", which she can control to use as armour, clothes, a weapon, camouflage, grappling hook, ect. She can even change its colour and texture, which she uses to make it appear that she is wearing human clothes. It's a little bit like an angel's wings, and a little bit like an eldritch abomination's tentacles. The clothing made from her kanaf can be removed from her body and worn by somebody else. However, it remains a part of her. Naomi describes it as oddly warm, and Ryn is rather embarrassed by being wrapped tightly around her entire torso.

The One Who Eats Monsters / int_13f7da6	comment	Instant Expert: So long as she can witness them beforehand, Ryn is capable of easily performing complex tasks that usually require years of training and practise — justified by her being millennia old and having superhuman perceptive and motor-control skills. School is so easy for her that within a few days of her arriving she has to invoke Do Well, But Not Perfect to avoid drawing undue attention to herself; while institutionalized she learns to play complex piano pieces with the grace of a master after watching another inmate do it once; and she easily beats Muse — a seasoned gambler — in a game of pool despite never having played before in her life. The pool game is notable because it's the only one we see from Ryn's perspective. She spends several minutes trying to find the trick, the thing that actually makes the game difficult... and then realizes there isn't one.

She later tries this with Patrick, but he's too twisted with hatred towards her for it to have any effect. When Ryn finally corners the Asura Cabal, Ghorm tries this on her using his ability to stretch her perception of time to make moments last for years, giving him as long as he needs to convince anyone of anything. Except Ryn, being older than time, has infinite patience and far too much experience to get bogged down in trivialities, and is also powerful enough that she can just negate what he's doing if she wants to.

After learning that Naomi's new friend Ryn was the one who coaxed her into leaving the safety of her home to go to the Nine Lives nightclub, where she and her friend Denise were almost raped by some drug dealers, he furiously forbids Ryn from ever seeing his daughter again... only to immediately rescind this after being shown a video of Ryn curb-stomping the drug dealers to protect Naomi, and personally asks Ryn to keep his daughter safe.

Her other "aliases," including Nemesis, the Implacable One, and She Who Cannot Be Escaped, back this up. It should be noted that these aliases were given to her by gods.

The One Who Eats Monsters / int_2c628d38	comment	Worf Had the Flu: Ryn is overpowered, brutally tortured, and raped by terrorists at the start of the novel. This only happened because she had just resurrected someone (which exhausted her), given the girl some of her power to heal her (which exhausts her), given the girl some more power to heal her brother (which further exhausted her), it was a new moon (which means her powers were at their weakest to start with), and the terrorists managed to ambush her due to bad luck. Even so, she killed half of them before they stapled her to a post, and later events in the novel make it clear that she was going to kill the rest of them the second she had recovered enough to break free from the pole. Statements made by some of them strongly imply that they realized this and tried to kill her, and failed so miserably that one mook begs Kessler to kill him and take his body far away from her, while she's still stapled to the post, because she can't die and she's going to break free soon.

Later in the book she starts teasing Naomi about being a Shameless Fanservice Girl for changing clothes in front of Ryn. Ms. Cross encourages Ryn to explore her feelings for Naomi hoping it would help her learn to socialize better and cope with the trauma of having been tortured and raped by the smugglers.

Seeing a recording of it gets Senator Bradford to flip from forbidding Ryn from ever seeing Naomi again to personally requesting her service as Naomi's unofficial bodyguard; and Mark, a trained soldier, expresses jealousy and awe at Ryn's superhuman combat skills. Subverted when she fights Mr. Saxby, who puts up a decent fight due to her being severely emotionally unbalanced at the time to the point of letting him land several hits. He then uses his special ability to develop a poison actually capable of killing her, prompting her to start taking it seriously. When they have their rematch, both of them are significantly better prepared, and Ryn crushes him despite him still having a poison able to kill her with one injection.

They're utterly horrified and immediately start cutting her free as quickly as possible. Ryn takes it badly, assuming they're like the rest of the "soldiers" who populate the area, and lashes out at them; the only reason Kessler and the other soldiers survive is because Ryn is so weakened. Also, at one point Ryn stops a bullied girl from stabbing Harper Pruett, who'd been Slut-Shaming her, but she moves so quickly by the time people realize what's going on, all they see is Ryn standing behind Harper — who she'd previously attacked — with the knife. Later, video evidence shows that Ryn was not the attacker, but it's still a big mess that gets her expelled from the school.

She ends up gang-raped and murdered by a group of terrorists smuggling nuclear material. Erynis resurrects and heals her, then gives Aina some of her essence to heal her brother. Ryn hunts and devours all kinds of evil, but she seems to hate rapists most of all. In the prologue it's mentioned that Aina's uncle was taken by the Great Spirit (the locals' name for Ryn) for molesting his daughter. It's revealed later in the book that she herself was raped by the smugglers at the start of the novel, and was intent on slaughtering them for violating her as soon as she regained her strength.

The One Who Eats Monsters / int_8ed5c6e4	comment	Asshole Victim: Due to Ryn's nature as a hunter of the evil, if you're at the wrong end of her claws, you deserve it. In the prologue, a group of terrorists gang-rape Aina before cutting her throat and leaving her for dead. Ryn resurrects Aina and goes after the terrorists, slaughtering several of them before they manage to overpower her. Splat, a particularly sadistic asura spawned from a snuff-porn ring, gets tortured out of his Hollow by Ryn, leaving Walter Banich in a full-body cast. John Laek — a drug dealer affiliated with the Black Sea mafia — drugs Denise intending to rape and blackmail her like he's done to at least one other girl. When Naomi intervenes, Laek and his comrades threaten to rape her too... until Ryn makes Laek wet himself with a Death Glare and curb-stomps his thugs with brutal efficiency. At the end of the novel, Ryn makes a point of hunting them down and butchering them. Burns — a racist white supremacist who'd been recruited by the asura cabal alongside Casper — and three of his friends end up being turned into a horrifying flesh-golem by Mr. Saxby, who sends them after Muse. Ryn rips the amalgam apart and eats their hearts, leaving the half-exploded corpse spattered across an ally and a couple of rooftops. The final human agent of the Asura cabal, Patrick Dailey, was one of the people posting ways to kidnap, rape, and torture Naomi to death on the anti-Bradford forum. He attempts to seduce Naomi to get her alone, and when his attempts on Naomi's life fail thanks to Ryn he attempts to stab her in her sleep. With Ryn occupied fighting Saxby, Denise bashes him upside the head with a tree branch, Naomi kicks him in the nuts, Elli maces him with peppermint mouthspray, and then the three pin him down, strangle him into unconsciousness, and hog-tie him for the cops. When Ryn catches Albert Birch masturbating next to her former roommate, she throws him through a wall. The ensuing police investigation shuts down Roosevelt Place.

She also can go without eating, drinking, and breathing, and will only become ever so slightly weaker as a result.

Despite this, the soldiers who rescue her immediately conclude from her appearance that she is not native to the unnamed country they found her in and is probably English or American. It is implied that Ryn can shapeshift, but it is never explained why she chose to appear Caucasian instead of the same ethnicity as the locals.

The Cabal gets a special god-killing alien weapon to deal with her... and she still catches the bullets. The only difference is that the force knocks her back a step every time.

In the final arc of the novel, Naomi — frustrated over Ryn jealously intervening in her romance with Patrick — learns that Ryn has feelings for her and has been stalking her, and furiously berates her before telling her to leave her alone forever, though she comes to regret it when Patrick reveals himself as a bad guy and tries to drown her.

Ryn foils his attempts to get her alone out of jealousy and saves Naomi from drowning when Patrick pushes her into the river, whereupon Patrick snaps and goes berserk.

A loophole lets her live in the United States when their government invites her in, but she's still bound by human laws. There's apparently a similar one for "temples of the new religions," presumably churches, mosques, and probably some other houses of worship. This one applies to all Devas and Asuras, and it's unclear who placed it or how.

She can't feel fear, she doesn't care about pain, and she can't be (permanently) killed. One of her Greek names, Adrasteia, literally means "inescapable." Even if you find a way to seriously hurt her with, say, Godkiller poison, she'll cut off her own arm to stop the spread of the poison.

One of the few stories we are given about Naomi's mother to show what she was like centers entirely around biting comments she made to her dean because he was "pro-Marxist". Of the Cabal's human minions, only the ex-military religious fanatic is shown to be remotely sympathetic and able to be redeemed. The "Gaia-hugging hippy" and the gun hater are almost as vile as the racist rapist, and Naomi's attempt to talk Patrick down has no effect at all, unlike with Owens.

When she realizes what his intent is, she furiously headbutts him through the door. Splat plans to rape and torture Naomi Bradford to death, though Ryn torches his van and foils his attempt on Naomi's life. Naomi is left traumatized by the encounter with Splat's mutilated Hollow and Ryn's borderline Living Shadow form, and suffers from chronic night-terrors. At the Nine Lives nightclub, Denise is drugged into a stupor by John Laek and his thugs and almost winds up their sex-slave (he is later revealed to have gotten a blowjob from an underage girl, but this may have been a different girl). When Naomi intervenes to save her friend, Ryn delivers a thorough Curb-Stomp Battle provoked by one of the thugs declaring his intent to rape them too, stopping just short of killing them... this time — the novel's epilogue makes it clear she hunted them down and killed them once Naomi was safe.
