Synopsis
Set in our own time along the bloody frontier between Texas and Mexico, this is Cormac McCarthy's first novel since Cities of the Plain completed his acclaimed, best-selling Border Trilogy . Llewelyn Moss, hunting antelope near the Rio Grande, instead finds men shot dead, a load of heroin, and more than $2 million in cash. Packing the money out, he knows, will change everything. But only after two more men are murdered does a victim's burning car lead Sheriff Bell to the carnage out in the desert, and he soon realizes how desperately Moss and his young wife need protection. One party in the failed transaction hires an exSpecial Forces officer to defend his interests against a mesmerizing freelancer, while on either side are men accustomed to spectacular violence and mayhem. The pursuit stretches up and down and across the border, each participant seemingly determined to answer what one asks another: how does a man decide in what order to abandon his life? A harrowing story of a war that society is waging on itself, and an enduring meditation on the ties of love and blood and duty that inform lives and shape destinies, No Country for Old Men is a novel of extraordinary resonance and power.

    All Cormac McCarthy is good!

    love all cormac mccarthy. the setting is more contemporary than the border trilogy but is still an intense good read. not as great as blood meridian however, which is one the best books i've ever read.

    Worth reading, then see the movie!

    First let me say that my opinion is currupted having seen the movie prior to reading the book. I have to say that I enjoyed the movie better as it gave a darker view of the story and the acting was outstanding. Without giving any spoilers, I will say that the book varies somewhat from the movie and does provide a few more answers to questions that I had after watching it. There was a balance of characters that had more of a roll in the book but less or not at all in the movie. The book stayed true to the main characters overall but I thought the book made Anton's character seem a bit more human (if thats possible) than the movies depiction of him being this evil, almost ghost of a man. I was not crazy about the authors style of writing when he was giving descriptions of things or actions ...

    No Country For Old Men

    Cormac McCarthy is an incredible author. His command of the English language is awsome. I am not a particular fan of novels of the Old West, but McCarthy could make his grocery list entertaining. He is discriptive in the extreme and his vocaublary is enormous. His tales are most often tragic and they just seem to stop rather than end. If you want a story with a happy ending, skip his books. If you like a book where the author is able give your a vivid mental image of the setting and deep insight into the characters, you will not find a better writter. I have now read everthing he has published and place him among my favorite authors.

    No Country for Old Men

    No Country for Old Men is a taut powerhouse of suspense and moral quandaries. Despite being perhaps one of McCarthy's more outwardly simplistic novels in form, it dwells in unmistakable themes of fate and chaos. It will not disappoint with either its thrilling action or its philosophy.

    Great Story

    The movie was great, and the book is even better. Impossible to put it down once I started. The book explains things that the film does not.
