Whimsical, satiric, and sometimes even outrageous, Mushroom Apocalypse, author-mycologist Lawrence Millman's 16th book, is the first ever collection of fungal fiction. Its memorable gallery of characters includes a pair of foodies who contemplate eating a mushroom cloud, the Dalai Lama as magic mushroom aficionado, Sherlock Holmes as an expert mushroom identifier, a Russian czar named Ivan who's a terrible mushroom identifier, and a mycologist named Rowland Faust who makes a deal with the devil.
