In this exciting matchup, I pit legendary authors against one another to see who comes out on top! Yessiree, folks, step right up for the fight of the century. In one corner, we’ve got legendary suspense author of over sixty-five books and counting, Stephen King, and his novella, The Body. And in the opposite corner, we’ve got Pulitzer Prize winner and minimalist wordsmith, Cormac McCarthy, and his terse novel, Child of God. Who is the better author, which is the better book, and does anyone really care?
Also in today’s podcast: Are dislikable protagonists worth reading about? Does style matter more than substance? Did someone try to scam me while recording this podcast? What’s with this book everyone keeps talking about . . . Doom? Dune? Dude? And what’s with these new, D&D-themed animes, Frieren and Delicious in Dungeon? And what about Patrick Rothfuss? Is he any good?
