Lost in the Shell LIVE with Gabriel!

from LIVE with Gabriel the Podcast Hosted by Gabriel O. Maestas

Lost in the Shell by Micheal B. Morgan Are you a page turner or a page thinker? If you’re looking for space battles, laser guns, or epic sagas, this isn’t your book. But if you enjoy surreal, experimental, and thought-provoking fiction that blurs Inspired by Philip K. Dick, J.G. Ballard, and Kafka, these short stories explore identity, consciousness, and the absurdity of modern life—with dark irony and philosophical bite. The Running Man by Richard Bachman Ben Richards has no job, no money, and a young daughter who urgently needs medical attention. Desperate, out of options, he signs up for The Running Man, “the biggest show in the country.” It’s an ultraviolent competition where the stakes could not be higher. Ben must stay alive for thirty days while an elite strike force, trained to kill, hunts for him. If he can survive for a month, he wins a billion dollars. No contestant has ever lasted longer than eight days. Can Ben Richards win this ultimate game of life and death? But wait, in case you missed the reading from author Jyl Glenn’s books Cubby and Reservations for the Damned, dive back into them! 😲 This is a public episode.
