Spoiler: Stick a cork up your ass
definitely “Pynchon Lite,” but that’s still a great read as far as i’m concerned. not sure why so many Pynchon snobs have turned that designation derogatory. the man was in his 70s when he published IV & Bleeding Edge, & gifted the world Mason & Dixon (his late masterpiece) & Against the Day (his longest novel) in his 60s. IV is more sentimental & more expository (these made more sense once my perspective changed by the end) than his best novels, but it’s still a super fun, hilarious, & ultimately a bit depressing, read w/ plenty of Pynchonisms & subtleties to keep me satisfied in regards to late-career output. + it was way better than Vineland.

Is there only 6 total in the series.Still slogging my way through book 6 of The Malazan Tale of The Fallen: The Bonehunters.
Books 1-4 were excellent. 5 and 6, mehhhh. I'm having/had trouble getting into them.
This might help.Tried to read a book last week when my power was out for 4 days and I just can't read the small print. It's all blurry. Feels bad man.
