Laird Barron Podcast Interview

 

 
When Laird Barron first announced Blood Standard as his first straight crime novel I was excited that an author known for cosmic horror and dread was giving his talents to a project like this. He was a 2007 and 2010 Shirley Jackson Award winner for his collections The Imago Sequence and Other Stories and Occultation and Other Stories. "Mysterium Tremendum" won a 2010 Shirley Jackson Award for best novella. He is also a 2009 nominee for his novelette "Catch Hell" Other award nominations include the Crawford Award, Sturgeon Award, International Horror Guild Award, World Fantasy Award, Bram Stoker Award, and the Locus Award.

The Isiah Coleridge novels are weird crime classics, the titles are Blood Standard, Black Mountain, and Worse Angels. The majority of our conversation is focused on these books with a bit of Samurai movie talk.
