Ron and Jake welcome Cassandra Khaw and Richard Kadrey to the podcast! They chat about their collaboration, the urban horror novel, The Dead Take The A Train.

You'd be hard-pressed to find a more impressive horror co-writing team than Cassandra Khaw and Richard Kadrey.

A British Fantasy Award, Bram Stoker Award, and Locus Award finalist, Cassandra won a Stoker last year for Superior Achievement in a Fiction Collection for
Breakable Things. Widely published, their short fiction may be found in such venues as Fantasy Science Fiction, Lightspeed, Tor. com, and Nature. Cassandra is also a game writer, with credits on She Remembered Caterpillars, Wasteland 3, and Falcon Age, and projects for Magic the Gathering, Dungeons & Dragons, World of Darkness, and Warhammer 40k.

Richard Kadrey is the author of the acclaimed New York Times best-selling
Sandman Slim series, the first volume of which William Gibson called "a dirty ass masterpiece," and which Amazon included in its 100 science fiction and fantasy books to read in a lifetime. Kadrey's other books include King Bullet, The Grand Dark, and Butcher Bird.

Richard and Cassandra joined us to discuss their first collaboration, the urban fantasy horror novel
The Dead Take the A Train, part of the Carrion City duology published by Tor Nightfire. For fans of Hellblazer, Angel, The Magicians, and yes, Sandman Slim, this is a must-read.
