reading it against LOTR was fascinating

Worth reading for the landscape descriptions alone

Blood Meridian - Cormac McCarthy. Worth reading for the landscape descriptions alone, McCarthy transforms the American west into a hellscape of inhuman violence, savagery, and evil; and yet, it's a beautiful descent into madness.

I liked Name of the Wind because it's a perfect counterpoint to Lord of The Rings, in a way.
