About this audiobook

Genetic Freaks. Celestial Beings. A Talking Goat Head.

Enter an obscure universe through the lives of 22 souls as the Nameless One and their ghoulish companion attempt to unlock the mysterious past of how they died. Yet, danger lurks even in the post-death realm, the Midway, and it is not keen on mortal visitors.

Award-winning author Konn Lavery's short story collection explores his expanding macrocosm, sharing the same universe as his previous works such as the horror novel Seed Me, thriller YEGman, and the dark fantasy series Mental Damnation. These interconnected tales bring everything under one, strange, unsettling, cosmos.

Praise for Into the Macrocosm

"Konn Lavery's Into The Macrocosm is an exceptional short story collection that explores some provocative ideas through a darkly imaginative lens reminiscent of Edgar Allen Poe or H.P. Lovecraft." - Literary Titan

"Captivating characters and a cleverly designed, fantastical plot. A highly recommended set of shorts." - Wishing Shelf Awards
