bushpocker's review against another edition

4.0

Certainly not as deep or well-written as Blood Meridian (what is?), but still remarkable in pacing and dialogue. McCarthy's control of his themes, and his perverse playfulness with them, is as hypnotic as the Coen brothers film. Controversially, I find the film better, perhaps because this book reads like screenplay to begin with.
