Aren’t we all a little nerdy for the wonderful world of fungi? Hobby mycophile that would shrink myself down to live amongst the slime molds if I could! lol
Per the title, I’m looking for fictional stories that utilize fungi & mushrooms as a major motif/setting/plot point/etc. I would be overjoyed if it was an uplifting story of interconnectedness, wonder, and inspiration. I’m aware so many authors use fungi as a vessel for sci-fi horror (dystopian, body horror, etc.), and I’m not closed off to those options if they’re truly gripping! However, I would absolutely prefer a dreamy, magical, uplifting mushroom world to escape in. Whatcha got, Reddit?! Thank you so much in advanced. 🍄

Ok. Neither are really hopeful, and they both have horror elements, but also are kinda fundamentally hopeful at heart.
