Episode #166 Interview W/ CJ Leede author of American Rapture

I was selling books at the San Diego Book Festival and my fellow tabling authors were Chad Stroup (Secrets of the Weird) and Brian Asman (Good Dogs). They talked about Mave Fly for a solid twenty minutes singing its praises. They hyped it so much, and I respect their opinions that I think the novel could not possibly meet the hype. For many readers, CJ Leede’s first novel Mave Fly more than met the hype. It was a massive success, and I was excited to read her follow-up American Rapture. In this episode CJ and I talk about her excellent weird apocalypse novel American Rapture. Inspired by the sexual repression of Catholicism and making a bold statement about rape culture this novel is incredible. This is a wide raging discussion and after a spoiler warning, we get under the hood and talk about the writing process. •You can find my books here: Amazon-https://www.amazon.com/David-Agranoff/e/B004FGT4ZW •And me here: Goodreads-http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/2988332.David_Agranoff Twitter-https://twitter.com/DAgranoffAuthor Blog-http://davidagranoff.blogspot.com/

Episode # 165 Interview W/ Brian Asman author of Good Dogs

SAN DIEGO HORROR REPRESENT! On this episode I welcome Brian Asman author of Man, Fuck That House and his debut novel Good Dogs. It is hard for me to think of this as being the first novel for Brian Asman. I suppose you could say this is the first proper novel, published with an established publisher, but Asman has been publishing for a few years, but those have been novellas published in a DIY punk style have even produced a viral book release. I mean with a title like “Man, Fuck this House.” Asman already has a signature release. The novellas range from funny to weird and the last Our Black Hearts Beat as One could be argued is a short novel, or would have been considered a novel in the past. We talk about Brian's career path and Good Dogs without spoilers for about 40 minutes before a spoiler Warning and then we go under the hood. •You can find my books here: Amazon-https://www.amazon.com/David-Agranoff/e/B004FGT4ZW •And me here: Goodreads-http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/2988332.David_Agranoff Twitter-https://twitter.com/DAgranoffAuthor Blog-http://davidagranoff.blogspot.com/

Two years ago we almost lost author Laird Barron to illness. Not only is he one of the best cosmic horror authors back, but he has returned with his strongest collection yet.

Episode #162 Interview W/ Johnny Compton author of Devils Kill Devils

I am very excited about this episode, author Johnny Compton joins me to talk about his Sophomore novel Devil Kills Devils from Tor Nightfire. I enjoyed coming into this novel cold, not knowing anything about the plot, but it is a supernatural horror novel that knocked my socks off. We talk about Compton’s influences, his background, and how he got into writing and start with a non-spoiler conversation about Devils Kill Devils. After a spoiler warning, we get full under the hood with this powerful novel. Plus we geek out about McCammon’s Swan Song. •You can find my books here: Amazon-https://www.amazon.com/David-Agranoff/e/B004FGT4ZW •And me here: Goodreads-http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/2988332.David_Agranoff Twitter-https://twitter.com/DAgranoffAuthor Blog-http://davidagranoff.blogspot.com/
