Murder-poet extraordinaire Anthony O'Connor joins us for some bloody grouse mouth-gear about dystopias, the Aussie Spirit, why we all love a little battler, and the world he crafted in his mellifluous debut novel 'Straya'.

I did a review of the book in a previous podcast (TTF38), and you can grab your own copy of 'Straya' here or here. For more great content from Anthony, including live readings of the novel itself (once you hear the Noble and Poetic 'Strayan' language spoken, you'll never go back) you can check out his website and Facebook Page.

And once you've checked that out, you can continue the conversation over on the Talking Fiction Discord Server! I'll be on there a bit over the coming weeks as I finish pulling together the final edits for my second Short Story Collection, Tales of Magic and Miasma, and very keen to have a chat about Straya, the 22 Murders of Madison May, or anything that you're watching/reading/gaming at the moment!

Talk soon,

Terry.
