Of Monsters and Mushrooms, Ch. 1 (book 1 NEW) ep.753 Paragon of Manliness NOTE: This is a rewrite of book 1. Originally, 'Of Monsters and Mushrooms' was supposed to be a multi-part short story that transformed halfway through into a novel. This left the plot (and the voice acting, to be honest) lacking. We decided to go back and completely rewrite book one to fix any plot holes and bring the quality in line with the rest of the series. Listen to the new book one playlist here
