The Mud Woman

In 2222 We didn’t know what to do Our leaders lied People died We were animals in a zoo From the forest, the Mud Man came… Following the deep footsteps of 2017’s The Mud Man, The Mud Woman picks up 200 years in the future, when politics, spiritualism, and fear clash in a way that mirrors modern times. Compiled as a series of classified military reports, The Mud Woman searches for truth in a world of deception, and explores the motivations that push us to embrace the soft lie. Meanwhile, an indestructible man of stone smashes up military tanks, tears soldiers to pieces, and battles monsters on the ocean floor on his own quest for redemption and change. This is a splendid oddity. The Mud Woman has a wonderfully bonkers premise, but is so well-written and detailed that the experience of reading it is as awe-inspiring as the muddy deities who grace the pages.
