One comes to The Croning, then, with great expectations, anticipating horror of the highest order, and indeed, this is delightful dark fantasy, as delicate as it is inevitably devastating. What an honor and what a blessing it was. I've hit the ceiling of my sacrifice room and there is nowhere else to go. Jul 29thBring on the Croning – BooYah!! Chris Moses and I recently co-created our first Croning Ceremony and I was the honored crone. Laird Barron's first full length book feels exactly like it sounds, a first full length book. I stumbled across Barron on one of my forums reading up about the 'cosmic horror' genre. Another novel that came highly recommended, and I will pass on that recommendation like a piece of parchment festooned with occult runes to the next innocent idler, is THE CRONING by Laird Barron. The Merriam-Webster Dictionary called a crone an ugly, withered (and usually wicked) old woman. Thus, in the opening phrases of The Croning , Barron begins this juxtaposition of the down to earth with what we might describe as out of this world. You see, I'm woefully under read on the Lovecraft mythos. It started out with feeling like I just don't have one more thing to give. So, here we are at book #22 for 2012; Laird Barron's “The Croning”!
