Imagine a planet where mushrooms are king, and an intelligent fungal spore turns people into zombies. That’s the world of my latest e-book from Pie Press, The Shrooms of Benares. Get a load of the sweet cover by blazing Ben Baldwin:
I hope you’ll check it out! You can order the e-book here for the Kindle, here for the Nook, and here from Smashwords for multiple formats. Now here’s a little bit about the story:
Benares: planet of fungi on the far frontier. Mushrooms grow taller than trees, fungal creatures roam the landscape…and a terrible new spore turns humans into the walking dead. The one man left alive, a genetically modified super space priest named Father Obregon, sets out to confront this threat and save the woman he loves. But the deadly fungal spore has other plans in store, plans that will push Father Obregon to his limits and test whether his faith can sustain him in the darkest corner of deep space among soulless
aliens who have no capacity for mercy.
