I can’t believe this was published over 110 years ago!!!

Ethan had spent years trying to teach Anna how to fight… But she only learned one lesson from him
Always throw the first punch…
Preferably, to the nose.

Absolute cinema 🤌🏻

End Chapter III.
I should’ve read this sooner! I’m reading the Portuguese edition, but the original must be really good. The writing is great!!

I should’ve read this sooner. So good!!!

Where is this even going? Is it all downhill from here?
Yeah, I’m at the blood part and …

Is this some kind of hypnosis?
Even I’m getting hypnotized after all these amazing close-ups!

The convenience fairy strikes again!!!

Oh God, this actually made me cry!

I’m on The Fourth Power, Vol. 2 — Death in Antiplona. Things are really getting violent here. Giménez’s work has so much depth, and there’s no way I can read this quickly. You have to take your time and appreciate every page!

End of Chapter 10. I’m so invested that the writing brings out such a mix of emotions. I feel like the tone is starting to get darker now, and the suspense is building. Sometimes I almost feel bad because there were moments when I burst out laughing, and then, right after that, things get really heavy.

I’m devouring this book!

— Está vendo? Benzocaína. Só algumas pessoas mais espertas sabem que esse é um nome comercial da cocaína. Se eles dissessem no rótulo que é cocaína, as pessoas iam se ligar e no final acabariam fazendo a mesma coisa que eu. As pessoas simplesmente não têm estudo suficiente para se dar conta. Falo do treinamento científico, igual ao que eu tive.

Uma pena não caber todo esse diálogo aqui! Hahahaha

“During the afternoon, I dozed fitfully. My enemy’s hideous banner flapping dismally in my dreams. That death’s-head it flies above us all… and the heads nailed to the ship’s black prow, those heads are our heads.”

I just got this for my birthday, and I seriously can’t put it down.
Philip k. Dick, whyyy are you so damn good??

This is really good! The pacing is fast!

I finished volume 1, and I really liked the suspenseful atmosphere that’s been building since the beginning!

Gotta thank RPG books for teaching me what a flint is!

So many weird names. I’ve noticed this a lot in contemporary fantasy too…characters being named after some trait, nickname, appearance, or whatever. I wonder how much influence Glen Cook had on this!!

If you’ve read it, you know exactly what part I’m at!!
I wasn’t expecting this!!

I knew it! H. R. Giger vibes!!! I’m a fan now.

A mix of Mad Max, violence, and a LOT of testosterone.
I loved this!

Shall not the Judge of all the earth do right?
The narrative always surprises me every time I reread it.

Juan Giménez drawing spaceships is insane! Actually, anything he draws is insane!
