“A legion of horribles, hundreds in number, half naked or clad in costumes attic or biblical or wardrobed out of a fevered dream with the skins of animals and silk finery and pieces of uniform still tracked with the blood of prior owners, coats of slain dragoons, frogged and braided cavalry jackets, one in a stovepipe hat and one with an umbrella and one in white stockings and a bloodstained wedding veil and some in headgear or cranefeathers or rawhide helmets that bore the horns of bull or buffalo and one in a pigeontailed coat worn backwards and otherwise naked and one in the armor of a Spanish conquistador, the breastplate and pauldrons deeply dented with old blows of mace or sabre done in another country by men whose very bones were dust and many with their braids spliced up with the hair of other beasts until they trailed upon the ground and their horses' ears and tails worked with bits of brightly colored cloth and one whose horse's whole head was painted crimson red and all the horsemen's faces gaudy and grotesque with daubings like a company of mounted clowns, death hilarious, all howling in a barbarous tongue and riding down upon them like a horde from a hell more horrible yet than the brimstone land of Christian reckoning, screeching and yammering and clothed in smoke like those vaporous beings in regions beyond right knowing where the eye wanders and the lip jerks and drools.”
― Cormac McCarthy, Blood Meridian, or the Evening Redness in the West

Maybe I'll read that on my vacation instead of Time Lords 2034.

Wait for the trilogy to be complete and then binge read.

pump. I used to feel like I did an ironman after brewday prior to the pump. Brewday is so much more enjoyable now with one.

Love having a pump. brings so much to the table. I also don't like lifting heavy burny hot ****.

You haven't read Time Lords 2034 yet? What are you even doing with your life?
DO YOU EVEN READ BRO? Omg. I. Can't. Even. Right now.

Probably waiting for the trilogy to be able to binge read.

Holy flock. 1 sentence. Kinda breathless reading that. I've gone off him a bit now but did like The Road.
 
I just tried a few times to read that entire quote. I couldn't. Frustration keeps taking over and I lose interest. If that is how that guy writes, I'll have to pass.

I had to skim it, too many bits. I'd have to pass on that too. Brain-addling stuff there, and not the good kind.

The Road was definitely not like that. I assume the rest of his work isn't either, but couldn't say for sure.

Blood Meridian is a very dense read. The closest thing I could compare it to might be Heart of Darkness cranked up to eleven.
 
Never read it, nope.

Dude, its a must read. The movie was boring by comparison. That is probably the most evil villain of all time, and the book version was worse.
If you want to seriously depress yourself, read The Road. I wanted to die like weeks after reading it
 
Want to propose a question of the day? Im a bit inebriated from lunch beers

I'm all for Gavinci trying out the QOTD.
