Oh, I kinda enjoyed Drood (like a snack I’m already fed up with yet keep munching), but in comparison some passages felt fatiguing, style a bit different, topics a bit mondaine (again, might have been intentional to show opium changes, idk).
Didn’t read Black Hills, almost don’t want to, but prob will at some point (thx for reminding me).
Drood was so … long to read (I mean weird pacing) and I couldn’t decide if it was intentional or not.
Also not giving us more of the tusk lady etc was criminal (but I knew that fairly from the start that I’m getting snubbed in my ghostly lore needs).
Drood isn’t for everyone, but I enjoyed the craziness.
‘Black Hills’ is also pretty good. Native man gets a job working on the Mount Rushmore project. It’s a desecration but he needs the work.
