Great interview.
I've ordered a copy of Koenig's Little Odessa on the strength of it.

Koenig's an interesting lost writer and thanks for reminding me of Bride
of Blood which is overdue a re-read - I remember enjoying a lot. I
interviewed him twenty years ago for Into The Badlands, and a very
strange fellow he was too, if you're interested you can read the
