Publisher's summary
Around midnight, under a lonely streetlamp in a provincial town in Japan, lies a white woman, a blonde, alone, robbed of all four limbs yet undead. Indeed, a rumor's been circulating among the local girls that a vampire has come to their backwater, of all places.
Koyomi Araragi, who prefers to avoid having friends because they'd lower his "intensity as a human", is naturally skeptical. Yet it is to him that the bloodsucking demon, a concept "dated twice over", beckons on the first day of spring break as he makes his way home with a fresh loot of morally compromising periodicals.
Always disarmingly candid, often hilariously playful, and sometimes devastatingly moving, KIZUMONOGATARI: Wound Tale is the perfect gateway into the world of author NISIOISIN, the best-selling young novelist in Japan today. The prequel to BAKEMONOGATARI ("Monster Tale"), this is where the legendary MONOGATARI series, whose anime adaptations have enjoyed international popularity and critical acclaim, begins.

Story
There's a girl at their school who is always ill. She routinely arrives late, leaves early, or doesn't show up at all, and skips gym as a matter of course. She's pretty, and the boys take to whispering that she's a cloistered princess. As the self-described worst loser in her class soon finds out, they just don't know what a monster she is.

Story
Bunny girls do not live in libraries. This is simply common sense. And yet, that’s exactly where Sakuta finds one in the wild. More bewildering is who the bunny girl is: Mai Sakurajima, a girl one year older than Sakuta, famous at their school for her acting career even though she’s currently on break. To top it all off, it seems like no one else in the library can see Mai at all, no matter what she does or...wears.

The Republic of San Magnolia has long been under attack from the neighboring Giadian Empire's army of unmanned drones known as the Legion. After years of painstaking research, the Republic finally developed autonomous drones of their own, turning the one-sided struggle into a war without casualties-or at least, that's what the government claims. In truth, there is no such thing as a bloodless war. Beyond the fortified walls protecting the eighty-five Republic territories lies the "nonexistent" Eighty-Sixth Sector.

On the planet Tython, the ancient Je’daii order was founded. And at the feet of its wise Masters, Lanoree Brock learned the mysteries and methods of the Force - and found her calling as one of its most powerful disciples. But as strongly as the Force flowed within Lanoree and her parents, it remained absent in her brother, who grew to despise and shun the Je’daii, and whose training in its ancient ways ended in tragedy. Now, from her solitary life as a Ranger keeping order across the galaxy, Lanoree has been summoned by the Je’daii Council on a matter of utmost urgency.

Story
Sagara Sousuke isn't your typical high school student. He reads military enthusiast magazines; he responds to questions with "affirmative;" he brings grenades to school in his bag. Though everyone at school takes him for a hopeless military geek, Chidori Kaname thinks there might be something more to him. When their plane is hijacked in the middle of a field trip, Kaname's instincts will prove correct: Sousuke is an elite, mech-piloting mercenary... and he's here to protect her!

But when the game goes live, the elation of the players quickly turns to horror as they discover that, for all its amazing features, SAO is missing one of the most basic functions of any MMORPG - a logout button.

Story
A young girl is arguing with a cherry tree. That's a new one for Lily, who's managed to reach the end of her first year at high school without too much weirdness. Unfortunately for her, it's not long after solving this odd mystery that her untroubled life begins to unravel. Discovering an abandoned room at the end of the music department corridor, she finds that aside from it being utterly run-down, it's also devoid of its sole occupant: Sonata Sonoda, the missing journalism club president.

Story
As Ayanokouji and his classmates begin their second year at the Advanced Nurturing High School, they're greeted by a fresh gauntlet of exams and a fresh batch of rather unique first-year students. They'll have to get to know each other quickly, because the first special exam pairs the first-years with the second-years on a written test--with only the second-years facing expulsion if their team performs poorly! Worse yet? It seems one of the new first-years is also from the White Room. Can Ayanokouji avoid expulsion while sussing out the identity of this hidden foe?

I used to be a normal high school girl but in the blink of an eye, I woke up in a place I've never seen before and-and I was reborn as a spider?! How could something that's nothing more than a tiny spider (that's me) possibly survive in literally the worst dungeon ever? Are there no rules? There should be some rules! Who the hell is responsible for this? SHOW YOUR FACE!

Something New, Different, and very Unique
Any additional comments?
A phenomenally good book, but maybe not one for everyone.
I didn't and don't know anything about this series, but this book at least seems to have stolen my list of everything I want in a book. Humor, psychological, a protagonist that I scarily resonate with, a superb ending that makes you think, and the list goes on. What it boils down to is a book with a very unique writing style and no way to categorize the genre (humorous psychological horror slice of life?). It's just something new that will have you laughing out loud one page, then three pages later cringing, and four after that thinking about a moral quandary.
There are what I can only assume are cultural difference with two or three brief parts that might put off some people, but they are so few and handled with tongue in cheek. So, I don't think they are too bad to completely put off people, but it is worth noting.
I recommend this book to anyone who just wants something new and different. And anyone who wants to laugh as they take a crack at what amounts to thought experiments. Definitely a good book.

Fantastic supernatural sci-fi story
Would you listen to KIZUMONOGATARI again? Why?
I enjoyed the book a ton. To keep it in mind this is a translation of a Japanese light novel and it is really well done.
What was one of the most memorable moments of KIZUMONOGATARI?
To put it simply, if you haven't had much experience with Japanese light novels, manga or anime some of the moments are a little odd.
What does the narrators bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
The narrators are very good and enjoyable to listen too. I am going to be listening to the following books.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Of course! and I did.
Any additional comments?
Vertical did a fantastic job with the translation. I look forward to the following books in the Monogatari series, as well as other ones translated by Vertical.

Phenomenal Audio Drama
Would you listen to KIZUMONOGATARI again? Why?
I have twice already.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Yes
Any additional comments?
So I want to be clear this is an audio-drama not an audio-book complete with sound effects background music and voice acting rather than just reading the dialog and it's quite well done and works really well for this work. As for the plot, it's urban fantasy????? but it's nothing like what you are used to. The protagonist gets pulled into these increasingly weird events that are occurring just in the underbelly of the city and of course has new found ways to deal with these problems but mostly wants nothing to do with any of it and is an average person before. But the rules of the world are far less "hard" magicy that you see in modern works and instead more symbolic and weird and that is how the main character survives. All in all it's a unique experience on audible and I recommend you give it a shot.

An amazing audio work
The cast was perfect and there was even music. I hope they continue to make more of these for the Monogatari series. I love reading light novels, but this was my first time listening to one. I highly recommend giving this a listen or read if you prefer.

Need More
This is an absolute must for any fans of the monogatari series, but also a great entry point for newcomers. All of the VAs you've probably heard before if you watch dubbed anime or play enough video games, and they bring their A game here. If you guys are even remotely interested, please pick this one up. Listen to it in the car, while playing games, while doing chores, etc. I want this to do well so we can get audiobooks for the whole franchise.
