I’m rereading early Laird Barron stories via audiobook.
1. Ray Porter was and is a wonderful narrstor. He didn’t sound anything like Laird Barron, but he sure sounds like Laird’s protagonists and narrators.
2. Barron was writing great horror from the very beginning. “Proboscis”, “Shiva Open Your Eye”, “Procession of the Black Sloth”, “Hallucinagenia”, and “The Imago Sequence” are all top-notch stories that would look good in anyone’s bibliography. Watching a mythos build up is fascinating, too.
