Cassandra Khaw and Richard Kadrey are both powerhouse bestselling authors in their own rights. Now, they've merged their considerable talents in cosmic horror and urban fantasy to create the new novel, THE DEAD TAKE THE A TRAIN. In a New York City absolutely filthy with magic—monsters and the mundane intermingle. When that cohabitation breeds horrific problems—and it always does—you need people like Julie Crews to clean up the mess. But being a coked-out, broke ass, pig-pen disaster of a magician like Julie creates as many issues as it solves. Struggling to make rent and constantly getting screwed by her clients, Julie is desperate to score some real paying work. Complicating matters is the arrival of her childhood friend Sarah, the prim and pretty opposite to Julie's deadbeat, mage-punk lifestyle. Sarah's brightness is just what she needs, and the vibes are way more than platonic. But Sarah brought her own baggage to the big city. When Julie's pompous Wall Street ex-boyfriend Tyler calls, offering big money for a highly suspicious job, she can't refuse. Getting tangled up in his lies, and the innumerable arms of a dream-eating demon, will be least of their issues, though. Because Tyler's corporate job serves some seriously eldritch monstrosities, big ugly elder god-things on a schedule to consume their workforce. And maybe the world. This, of course, is all about to become Julie's giant mess to solve—and make infinitely worse along the way. THE DEAD TAKE THE A TRAIN is a visceral, violent, wickedly fun urban fantasy available now from Tor Nightfire: Amazon »  Bookshop »  About Cassandra Khaw Cassandra Khaw is an award-winning game writer and former scriptwriter at Ubisoft Montreal.

There were widely mixed reviews for Nothing But Blackened Teeth by Cassandra Khaw and I am very late to the game. I will always think of this as one of the best presented books in a long time - the cover art is beautiful. I also enjoyed the story, and the more I think on it, it strikes me as a manga-style, 90s teen horror cycle tale told with a far more modern take on language, with more than one cardboard cut-out character. But that is fine, since we have our hero Cat to guide us through this; whether it be in our search for true horror or fan-service easter-eggs. Looking forward to reading their next book, The Salt Grows Heavy, sooner rather than this much later!

Bill welcomes fantasy and science fiction author Cassandra Khaw to the show. Cassandra is an award-winning game writer and former scriptwriter at Ubisoft Montreal. Khaw's work can be found in places like The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction, Lightspeed, and Tor.com. Khaw's first original novella, Hammers on Bone, was a British Fantasy Award and Locus Award finalist, and their novella, Nothing But Blackened Teeth, was a USA Today bestseller, Bram Stoker Award nominee, and Indie Next Pick. The Salt Grows Heavy is their latest novel.

Lindsay and Barbara dig into Cassandra Khaw's novella about five friends navigating a haunted Japanese mansion. Featuring: 20+ minutes of chit chat on vasectomies and nerf-gun-kid-drama, getting left at the altar and then buried alive, pulling out your own tooth, and accidentally disemboweling your friend.

I must admit, there was an element of selfishness involved in this podcast. I'm currently doing a creative writing course in my spare time (rather than in my news stories, ho ho) and one of the things I'm struggling with, weird as it is to admit, is the idea that I can write anything. I don't have to be bound by the rules of this world, or any world, or any rules. I can conceive of something totally and utterly new. And that's... I still can't quite wrap my head around it.   But my guest on the podcast today, Cassandra Khaw, has long made their peace with this, producing works of - usually - pitch black horror that I'm not sure I'd have the nerve to imagine. The most famous of their pieces is probably the novella Nothing But Blackened Teeth, which was a USA Today bestseller when it came out roughly a year ago.    So I wanted to find out from Cassandra, who seems to imagine new stories at the speed other people think of things to eat for dinner, where their ideas came from and how to shape them from there. I also wanted to find out where their life-long love of horror came from - and I was treated to a wonderful real-life Malaysian horror story when I asked.   Cassandra isn't only a horror writer, though. They've written for Eurogamer and now they help write games. They've contributed to games like Fallen London and Sunless Skies and Falcon Age, and more recently were working at Ubisoft Montreal on Hyperspace (and some undisclosed projects) and, to get us right up to date, Gotham Knights. Cassandra's already gone on to two new game projects they're not able to talk about yet.   They sound busy, right? Well, let's not forget their debut collection Breakable Things, coming out on 8th November. We talk about it in this podcast and it sounds great; it revolves around a theme of people pushing back against the world, like a werewolf out for revenge, or mermaids - who were pulled out of the ocean by humans, and impregnated - doing the same. There are some quieter explorations of grief too, including one tale that's personal and close to Cassandra's heart.   They have two other books coming out next year, too. One is a twisted mermaid novella called The Salt Grows Heavy, due May 2023, and the other is a collaboration with Richard Kadrey called The Dead Take the A Train, due March.   "Pathologic workaholic" is how they'd describe themselves, and on this evidence, I'd have to agree! Incidentally, the scary Malaysian film Cassandra mentions at the beginning is Impetigore, and the book recommendation is The Least of My Scars, by Stephen Graham Jones. Oh and apologies for a bit of keyboard clacking at the beginning of the recording - we relocate quickly to a quieter area. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

In which we discuss that the reasons why Nate loves this story are the same reasons why Kirstyn does not. Also nuance in dissecting interpersonal relationships, decaying haunted houses as allegories, and screaming at characters to please, please, just leave the dangerous place. Also, proof that two people can read the same story and have completely different experiences. TL;DR we really wanted this to be a full novel and have more of the story, but for contrasting reasons.

Tennille and Sara give their book report on Nothing But Blackened Teeth by Cassandra Khaw. They reveal new possible names for the skeleton in the coffin - what WILL it be?!?

The gang finishes up "Nothing But Blackened Teeth" and it continues to not be a book about ohaguro. It does continue to be a story about a bunch of rich a-holes in a haunted Japanese mansion, so look forward to their continuing stupid escapades. You'll laugh like you heard the joke that killed God!

Nope, it's not a how to book on the art of ohaguro, just a story of a bunch of rich a-holes shacked up in a haunted Japanese mansion. The gang reads the first half of “Nothing But Blackened Teeth” and are marveled by prose so purple even Lovecraft would say to tone it down a little. Derek also educates JR on Kappas, but neglects to mention their love of mythical anus organs. Japanese mythology folks!

Wolves are a staple of horror literature and fairy tales alike. They are fierce creatures that walk the woods, reminding us of the dangers that lurk once we leave the confines of comfortable and safe civilization. In her short story “The Company of Wolves,” Angela Carter retells the familiar tale of "little red riding hood," examining the very real world danger that women often navigate every day.

The guest is Cassandra Khaw and their novella Nothing But Blackened Teeth will use it's liquorice-stained smile to chew you up.The book transports us to a crumbling mansion in Japan, where a hideous spectre haunts a group of utterly loathsome tourists. Honestly, you'll want them dead for their taste in music alone!Despite the slimness of the volume, Cass packs a lot into this book, just as we pack a lot into this conversation. As well as discussing the novella specifically, we also talk our fear and fondness for Ellen Datlow, the rich heritage of South East Asian ghost stories and the haunting house as colonised space. She also gives perhaps the best ever answer to the question “what really scares you?” It is a life lesson. Excuse my whining about my dog. Enjoy Nothing But Blackened Teeth was published on Tor Nightfire on 20th OctoberBooks discussed on this episode include: Queen of the Cicadas (2021), by V.

TW: Horror and goreHorror writer extraordinaire Cassandra Khaw joins me on the podcast this week chatting all about researching for their visceral horror writing, the impact and inclusion of Malaysian mythos and folklore in their work, and how the pandemic has affected not only their daily life, but also their writing. We chat about how horror can be a comforting experience for the reader and how the writing process can be cathartic.
