- UltraSane 8mo agoHyperion is the better novel but Carrion Comfort is just really exciting and creepy. And the way the mind controllers treated regular humans like toys hits far too close to home now.
- rwmj 8mo agoYeah, one of the bad guys even had a private island where he invited all his rich psychopathic friends.
- tsumnia 8mo agoOh absolutely, I don't want to spoil anything but (to sound like a nutcase for a second) if there is an Illuminati then I think they were avid readers of Carrion. Apropos given your username XD
- defen 8mo ago> if there is an Illuminati then I think they were avid readers of Carrion lol, I never really thought about that but given recent revelations it does almost seem like they were using it as a template.
- washadjeffmad 8mo agoI still think about it relatively often. It took me almost a year to finish it between breaks to recover.
