Title: What a disappointment from a great author.
Review: I'm sure part of the disappointment comes from the waiting, but the book really lacked in the signature Cormac vistas. There were a few intense images in the book, like the cowboy Billy meets at the end of the novel, but the book doesn't come close to The Crossing or All the Pretty Horses, or even his other books. The book was all dialog, more like a Hollywood screenplay than a Cormac McCarthy novel. Too bad. It could have been a great novel.
