THE KINOKO TRILOGY
The Kinoko Trilogy is a sci-fi, biotech, fungalpunk series set in the fictional secondary world of the Fungalverse. Taking place during tumultuous period of change, various powerful technologies are converging around political, social and economic landscapes. Starting with the explosive events of Spore City, the books propel readers from the Agarican metropolis of Neo Kinoko to far-flung nations across the world of Theia.
One question remains: how will we use our technology, or how will it use us?
Spore City (Book One)
THE FUTURE IS FUNGAL.
In the post-war, biotech, fungal metropolis of NEO KINOKO, capital city of AGARICA, the lives of a detective, a tattoo artist and a bioengineer come crashing together as they investigate brutal deaths, face powerful enemies, uncover haunting mysteries and confront their troubled pasts in a struggle for their futures—and the future of the city.
Mycomocracy (Book Two)
SPEAK TRUTH TO POWER.
Nearly a year after the events of SPORE CITY, the metropolis of NEO KINOKO is back in the hands of AGARICA and its people and the transition of control presents the nation with a new challenge: its first-ever democratic election. As newly formed political parties amass support and accrue power, political and ideological frictions arise. Leading the divisive polls: the ONE AGARICA PARTY ignites nationalistic fervor while the NEW LABOR PARTY dreams of a unified socialist state. Amidst this fiery division, an activist hacker, a hitman, a digital nomad, a data analyst and a bioterrorist monk will see their paths intertwine in an increasingly complex web of political corruption, terrorism and biotechnology gone awry—both in Agarica and beyond its shores.
Fungicide (Book Three)
WHEN TRUTH FAILS, WAR IS INEVITABLE.
Following the contentious election of the ultranationalist, right-wing ONE AGARICA PARTY in MYCOMOCRACY, extremist notions take rise throughout the Agarican Archipelago. Feeding a wave of vengeful sentiment, the OAP launches an illegal shadow war against COPRINIA in retaliation to decades of oppression. Pressures escalate as the horrors of war are leaked to the world, causing outcry from countless nations. Through the eyes of a covert operative, a mycohistorian, a whistleblower and a narcotrafficker, history will be questioned, rights will be violated, and the limits and costs of war will be pushed to the brink of destruction.
