Welcome to Macguffin, Motherboard, Unicorn, an anthology of genre-hopping oddities where the only constant is surprise… and even that’s negotiable. Here you’ll find AIs with abandonment issues, assassins debating the merits of ginger chews, cosmic bureaucracies tangled in red tape, and existential crises served with a side of sarcasm.
Each story tries, in its own dysfunctional way, to answer the big questions: What does it mean to be human? What if you're not human, but everyone keeps expecting you to act like one? Can love survive the singularity? (Spoiler: sometimes, but only with good Wi-Fi.)
"A truly unique blend of genres that kept me guessing until the very last word. Darkly hilarious and profoundly unsettling. Saurav Mohapatra is a master of the unexpected!"
- Early Reader Review
"Mohapatra's wit shines through every twisted tale. You'll laugh, you'll squirm, you'll question everything. This collection is a must-read for anyone tired of predictable plots."
- Early Reader Review
"From AIs with abandonment issues to cosmic bureaucrats who prefer pancakes over doomsday, *Macguffin, Motherboard, Unicorn* is a masterclass in the absurd and the profound. Dive in, if you dare."
