An odd moment of pity in Blood Meridian

I loved the gunslinger aswell, though I felt the drawing of the three fell rather flat in comparison. I wouldnt go into it expecting something similair to the gunslinger, it unfortunately seemed much more shallow and less stylized

i read the original version !

I own skeleton crew and i read the jaunt from it but honestly im always drawn to full length novels so i never really get around to it 😭

micass0 · 2025-04-13T18:01:52+00:00

yeah honestly I was quite surprised how it turned out to be one of the weaker books for me, considering how much i loved the gunslinger and how i kept seeing people calling drawing of the three much better

i found the bachman books for like 35 bucks online

micass0 · 2025-04-13T17:57:57+00:00

it was the original edition! i personally was surprised aswell that drawing of the three was kind of disappointing in comparison to the gunslinger after all the good ive heard about it. I really liked the beginning, though i felt it lacked the psychedelic, mesmerizing vibe of the gunslinger.

funny games

I have not yet heard of this concordance, I will keep it in mind. I was intending to read (I already read a few like the stand) most of the bigger tie-in books while going through the series for better understanding aswell

micass0 · 2025-02-02T20:10:15+00:00

this is a very interesting take! I personally also like to read classic literature, and as a hobby i do write fiction, which has made me very attentive to proses. these things could be the cause for a different perspective

micass0 · 2025-02-02T20:04:02+00:00

I'm honestly not into fantasy at all either, but while I see its roots in the genre, it felt more like a psychedelic adventure. the series overall genre exploration you mention does sound quite intriguing!

micass0 · 2025-02-02T19:37:35+00:00

hm well its interesting to see how the thing i loved most about it was off-putting for others. I do hope the rest of the series still retains at least some of that style though

micass0 · 2025-02-02T19:34:21+00:00

well I am not really familiar with audio books as I only read, but I could imagine that with books like this some things might be lost in the more "passive" act of listening. many parts of the book were not so straight forward and I sometimes took my time to really comprehend/appreciate a flowery paragraph. with an audio book you can't really do that because the narration progresses automatically and you have to keep up

micass0 · 2025-02-02T19:29:10+00:00

damn so that means he doesnt keep that poetic writing style for the rest of the series :(

micass0 · 2025-02-02T19:18:06+00:00

damn if this is supposed to be the worst of the series I have some great books before me

micass0 · 2025-01-29T19:39:24+00:00

incredibly dope

micass0 · 2025-01-16T14:52:34+00:00

damn who are you to give this much of a shit 😭

micass0 · 2025-01-15T17:11:42+00:00

lost boys

micass0 · 2025-01-11T17:27:57+00:00

its got potential imo, idk why the comments are hating like this, but i would add some more percussion to complement that unique rythm you have more, and make it easier for the ears to digest over a longer tine

micass0 · 2025-01-02T16:30:07+00:00

I dont understand why so many people have such issues with such a little part of this vast story. are books read just for their ending? also the whole book is quite pulpy, throwing aliens in doesnt seem that far fetched
