Hidden World of Fungi in North America: Real Stories of the Mushrooms You Can Find on Your Next Hike and the Honest Science of How Fungi Feed Our Forests

You have walked past a ring of mushrooms on the trail or a crusty patch of lichen on a city wall and wondered what was really going on. The answer is stranger and older than most of us were ever told.

Each chapter of this six-hour audiobook opens in a living scene with a fungus you can actually find in North America. You stand among morels rising after a spring burn, walk the vast honey mushroom of Oregon's Blue Mountains and kneel for chanterelles under oaks. Along the way you hear how fungi feed forests, break down rock, glow in the dark and even hunt. Every story ends with a short note on what scientists know and what they are still guessing, including an honest look at the debated wood wide web.

After listening, a walk in the woods or a stroll through your garden looks different. Press play on your next hike and start noticing the life beneath your feet.
