I feel like I'm feeling my way around this story better. The Indian vampire is killing the white settlers who are killing the buffalo because of the significance of the buffalo to his culture and mythos. I need to hold this thought while we parse through the gore and dread. Also, 1/3 of the way in, maybe through regularity and clarity, the horror isn't so stark anymore. it just feels violent.

Began with a bang, middled around in from the 60% mark and fizzled out with a wimp. For how it started, this ended up being quite disappointing. For how difficult this was to read, most of the metaphors existed in the first half and after that, it all became a meaningless acid trip. 3 stars for a wonderful first 2/3.

So the point of the whole story is the vampire is unkillable? What is this a metaphor for?

This book suffers from being a long read that is difficult to trudge through. 3 star read at best.

I'm dreading Good Stab's final account because I'm tired of his story.

Attempting to finish this today. I'm torn on rating. Giving middling pacing in the midway point, should be a 3 star but maybe might be a 3.5 star for good horror and critique.

The lingering question at the back of my mind as I enter the second half of this book is this - Why is Good Stab relaying this confession to Reverend Beaucarne?
1 - What is the reason behind him making this confession?
2 - Why has he chosen Beaucarne as his confessor?
