Wyrd Sisters

Wrote a review for

As always some fun from Terry Pratchett hand. Those who've read him know what to expect, and this who haven't should read something by the author. Not necessarily this one, as I'm not sure if I would see it as one of the best. However it definitely is one of his better works! Recommend, but not overly so.

Not amazing, not boring. I had some chuckles.

The Long Goodbye

Wrote a review for

Interesting, and well written. However it seemed to me to drag on a bit at spots. I take it that was because of the time of writing, were I'm accustomed to a somewhat more hurried writing style.

It wasn't a bad book, it was a good who-dun-it, however, the langauge meant i longer reading time than I would have prefered for a who-dun-it.

Blood Meridian: Or the Evening Redness in the West

Wrote a review for

A tough read!

The language is slow, the story is gruesome and filled with violence and the story is without true excitement. With all that being said, it was a very interesting read!

It's well written, however the linguistic choices lend it a very slow pace and I was never truly ‘excited' or ‘glued to my seat' waiting for another thrill.

With all that being said, it's a good book with an interesting story to tell about mans abilities, desires and actions when there is no moral or ethical compass to guide them, except their own greed and lust.
