I need to revisit ol' H.P. Lovecraft, The Whisperer in the Darkness was adapted to a movie that I haven't seen yet.

I haven't seen that one yet either...was just looking it up...looks like it was made by the same guy who made the Call of Cthulhu movie.

I have them both in my Amazon cart right now, lol. I haven't squeezed the trigger. (If you pull the trigger you can throw your shot off)

I've seen the Call of Cthulhu...I thought it was really well done...I'll have to check out this other one too.

I haven't seen either one, I'll trust your judgement on The Call of Cthulhu. I liked Dagon

George MacDonald: An Anthology 365 Readings by C.S. LEWIS​

1. a day to keep the devil at bay? Just Kidding ,,,maybe

 

[Christos D. Tsatsaronis]

Reading now the wonderful (as all others by the same author) book "A Time to Keep Silence" by Sir Patrick Leigh Fermor (1915 - 2011), one of the most important, if not the greatest travel writer of the 20th century. He travelled a lot, also in Greece, where he lived for many years. The book is about his staying and visits at monasteries in France and Cappadocia, Turkey. The mighty "Paddy" mixes up in his unique style information about the life of monks, from his readings of innumerous books, his observation capabilities, conversations with people and travels in so many places... The result: a fascinating and fun to read book!

Hell I Was There by Elmer Keith

 

[rmbittner]

Just finished Nothing But the Night, a true-crime book taking a fresh look at the 100-year-old Leopold and Loeb case, and am beginning yet another re-read of George Gissing’s New Grub Street, one of my favorite 19th-century novels. Also fitting in a re-read of Alfred Henry Dunhill’s The Gentle Art of Smoking and plugging away at Stephen King’s Needful Things.

Damn good book, but haunting and visceral. There were times I had to take a "break" from the book because of its intensity and depth. I'd love to hear what you think of it when you finish it!

Haunting and visceral is to put it mildly. I've read Blood Meridian several times and still unsure what to make of it, it affected me more than any book I've read.

Don't Sleep, There Are Snakes. Missionary goes to live with Pirahâ tribe to convert and learn their language that has no words for colors or numbers.

Currently reading through Mike Carey and Peter Gross' comic series, "The Unwritten." It's very enjoyable. It is definitely part of the whole "story about stories" subgenre of dark fantasy, which is like nip to me.

My third reread of "The Robber Barons." So much to be learned about some of my favorite Americans ... so little time left. A few of them spanned the continent with iron rails and only used government funds. Never spent a dime of their own moneys.
