Despite all the gore and sexual violence, Gods Fare No Better is at its core a story about the power of friendship turning despair into a blade powerful enough to cut through the endless pointless stories we’re buried under. It is anti-nihilistic. It’s a grimbright story. That’s why it feels alive.

Just throwing my two cents in. It is actually that good.

USA. A Mexican restaurant. We had not yet ordered anything, and the food was already arriving. Chips. Salsa. Unrequested. Free. I stopped the waiter. "We have not earned these." "They just come with the table, man." They come with the TABLE. In my land, hospitality is a debt. Every gift creates an obligation, weighed carefully, returned in the proper season with interest of feeling. Here, the gift arrives before you have even proven you can pay for dinner. This is not an appetizer. This is a declaration: we trust you. Eat. I ate with the gravity the moment deserved. And then — I must report this calmly — the basket emptied, and a new one appeared. "Did we…?" "Refill," the waiter said. "It's bottomless." Bottomless. They have wells of salsa. The supply lines of this nation are beyond anything my ancestors imagined. My friend warned me. "Don't fill up on chips, dude." Too late. I had accepted three baskets. Honor demanded each one be finished — an unfinished gift is an insult. By the time my actual food arrived, I was a ruined man. I was not hungry. I was not comfortable. I had been defeated by a courtesy. Generosity that arrives before the request cannot be repaid. It can only be survived. I know the rule now. I have made my peace with the basket. One basket. Two at the most. Who am I deceiving. There is no number of baskets I would refuse. The trust of a nation is in that salsa, and I intend to honor all of it.

This looks amazing. Easy purchase.

one of the easiest ways to tell if a book is good or not is to take a quick look at the cover

I’ve been doing a lot of promo for Gods Fare No Better, but I can’t forget about the other book I dropped last year. Berserker Club is a much shorter, more intense entry point. Review quotes from Janglebones’ stack.

I'm looking forward to the Whalefall movie. The highly recommend the book. It's the extremely rare double threat: it moves at a thriller's pace AND the sentences sing.

Early Father’s Day haul. Rooster Fighter is incredible. It’s a great premise (a rooster fights demons) with sharp art and perfectly paced little stories about toucans, turtles, and yakuza. Very funny and at times sad. Then The Invisibles, one of my favorite books of all time!

My new book is once again about the sacred bond of male friendship, but this time it has an armored car heist.

Entering a world of survival horror

Comecei a jogar The Ring: Terror’s Realm do Dreamcast, uma adaptação dos livros que depois viraram o filme O Chamado. Eu to completamente chocado como isso passou tão despercebido. Ele é um clone de RE só que misturando horror com scifi e uma história completamente “????”

Immaculate film, so innovative in its direction for a murder mystery

THE TUNNEL Akira Kurosawa

🚨 Kowloon’s Gate English Patch!!!! 🚨

Available through all the finest retailers. CROWBAR.

I think it's good gatekeeping. If you think you're too good for a book where a shirtless dude rides a monster horse into battle whilst wielding a broken executioner's sword, you don't deserve the heady stuff that also lies within.

Many people have been saying it's dope. Gonna check it out.
