Just finished this book. I know Suttree is held in high regard but wanted to get some other book recs from Cormac McCarthy or authors with a similar writing style.

I'm 80% of the way through pic related, so far I'd give it a 7/10, are the other two books in the trilogy worth reading?

So I've read the first six pages of this book. I think the writing and the story are pretty interesting so far. But I'm getting really lost and confused about whose talking. I understand he doesn't use quotation marks. Anyone here whose a fan of his work. Do you have any suggesitons, advice, or tips for how to apporach reading this book and the other works of Cormac McCarthy? I'd love to become a fan of his. I've been told this book was by far one of the easier to read of his. Any advice is helpful.

I finished reading pic related a couple days ago and got to thinking about the section where John Grady manages to get back Blevins horse with the captive Captain, and the subsequent chase. There were 4-6 riders chasing after him when he was originally shot in the leg, and the night after he burned out his wound and was confronted by three "hombre del pais". My question is, are these men the same that were originally pursuing him,like maybe they split up, or are they just people who live in the wilderness? My first thought was maybe the old man that John Grady freed from the jail might have sent them or been associated with them. But I'm a fucking idiot so I have no clue, any thoughts?

We all like to rave about Blood Meridian on this board, but can't we all agree that this is the superior McCarthy work?
