Blood Meridian: Part I - The Definitive Audiobook
Kim Raw for 'The Mennonite'
(Rugged, light, playful tone of voice)
A prophet whom 'The Kid', Earl, and second corporal encounter while drinking in a bar in Bexar, 'The Mennonite' warns the three men against joining Captain White on his undertaking, for he fears that White’s invasion of Mexico will "wake the wrath of God."
'The Kid' and his companions berate 'The Mennonite' and swear at him - but his prophecy comes true nonetheless.
