The Mycelium Uprising

di Rick Brown (Autore)

Rick Brown, 2026

The race to save the planet begins beneath our feet. Research mycologist Robin Flynn travels to the blistering deserts of East Africa to test an experimental fungal system designed to sequester atmospheric carbon through resilient fungal networks in one of the world's harshest climates. When a devastating sandstorm reveals the organism is doing far more than anyone imagined, Robin returns to Oregon, where her research team discovers the field trial may have awakened an extraordinary biological response. The underground network is adapting. It remembers. It anticipates. It reorganizes itself to protect its weakest links, exhibiting behaviors no one believed possible in a living system. As climate disasters accelerate, a powerful biotech conglomerate and governments launch a global race to control the discovery. Outmatched but unwilling to walk away, Robin and her research team rely on science, grit, and one another as they race to understand a breakthrough that could help stabilize a warming planet before fear and the pursuit of power turn it into humanity's next great mistake. Grounded in real climate science, fungal ecology, systems biology, and emerging biotechnology, The Mycelium Uprising is a character-driven climate thriller where every scientific breakthrough carries a human cost. The real conflict is not whether the Earth can save itself. It is what people will do when confronted with an adaptive living system it cannot own, command, or control.
