Twelve stories. Zero sanity. One gloriously unhinged collection.
From malfunctioning smart homes staging emotional interventions... to genetically altered floating sharks that demand snacks... to Evel Knievel's stunt manager fighting physics, fame, and a star-spangled cat... to a bald eagle with enough patriotic anxiety to power a small nation.
This anthology dives headfirst into the absurd, the dark, the heartfelt, and the catastrophically human.
Dark Humor, Office Monsters & Sweet Errors gathers twelve of Cody Poston's most chaotic short stories from the Dystopocon universe. Inside, you'll find:
Courtroom dramas starring Alexa and a deeply offended Roomba
Workplace battles waged like military campaigns
Floating apex predators with emotional needs
Vegas convention chaos of the highest (or lowest) order
A patriotic eagle spiraling into existential madness
And plenty more strange, sweet, disastrous moments of humanity
If you love weird speculative satire, office-culture absurdity, sentimental chaos, and stories that make you laugh and question your life choices, welcome to the Dystopocon collection.
It's messy.
It's sharp.
It's deeply human.
And it's probably the most fun you'll have reading about emotional appliances and airborne sharks.
