Episode #122 Interview with John Shirley author of Suborbital7

Episode 122 of Postcards is a special episode featuring the return of one of my favorite authors. Cyberpunk, Science Fiction, and horror legend John Shirley is most famous as one of the screenwriters of The Crow. He is the author of several dozen novels and multiple award-nominated and acclaimed short story collections including the award-winning Black Butterflies and the recently reissued Really, Really, Really, Really Weird Stories. As a novelist I consider John to have masterpieces in both Science Fiction (City Come A-Walkin) and Horror (Wetbones). The last time he came on we talked about his recently released SF novel Stormland. This time we are talking about his new Science Fiction action novel Subortibal7. Developed alongside the studio Alon Entertainment who developed the TV series of The Expanse and the recent Blade Runner sequel. Suborbital7 will be on my top ten when the year is over so highly recommended. In this interview we breakdown this new fresh take on military science fiction and orbital combat that is ripped from tomorrow’s headlines. We talk about John's recent projects, the real-life inspirations for Suborbital7, deep research, and writing realistic space combat. The first 45 minutes or so is spoiler-free. Then after a spoiler warning, I make John very uncomfortable talking about all of the writing process. He is serious he wants you to read it first. •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/
