Distopia

By: Robert Kroese

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

In a land where dragons are a historical footnote and theology is a contact sport, a hapless missionary named Wyngalf embarks on a divine mission with the enthusiasm of a zealot and the competence of a beached fish. Armed with the teachings of the obscure Noninitarian faith—devoted to a God with nine conflicting personalities—Wyngalf sets out to bring enlightenment to the mysterious land of Dis. What begins as a fool’s errand quickly spirals into an epic misadventure involving pirates, monsters, incoherent prophecies, and a girl who really should know better.

Between a dragon who has cornered the real estate market, a goblin who is too smart for his own good, and a sea monster that is no less terrifying for being metaphorical, Wyngalf’s journey is a hilarious and heartfelt exploration of faith, doubt, and the persistent human desire to make sense of a nonsensical world.

Smart, satirical, and sneakily profound, Distopia is high fantasy with low expectations—and somehow all the better for it.
