Book Recommendation: Hotel Daydream

06/24/23 • 22 min

This week, we're recommending a show we think you should listen to: Hotel Daydream from Steven Cousler

Catering to the needs of mythical beings, monstrous clients, and mathematical abstractions is tough work. Tune in every other Sunday for hospitality updates from the hotel for the real, the imagined, and everything in between. This is their first episode: The Pilot

The hotel faces some difficulties when guests complain about a peckish statue out in the garden. Also there is a shortage of blood for the vampire clients, a supply chain breakdown of eggs, a discussion of the dietary nature of flies, and one guest who can't stay away from his exploding fruit. Just another day in the hospitality business for the odd and incorporeal.

Interlude: John Smith and the Cost of the Hungry Blade

This week, we're doing something a bit different. What you're about to hear is our entry from the October 2022 Phonic Fiction Fest, John Smith and the Cost of the Hungry Blade, as it was created by people all involved in making the show, and is an idea we want to develop further.

Detective John Smith is a hardboiled detective in a strange world. When a body is found with a mysterious knife which isn't the murder weapon, Smith must turn to Doe, his magical partner for help. Doe has been sent by the Guardians of the Forest as an envoy to the human world. But they’ve found a new candidate to represent them — too bad he doesn’t believe in magic.

Dramatis Personae:

J. R. STEELE as DOE

NIGEL MCKEON as SMITH

EIRA MAJOR as ZARGOTH

ALEX KINGSLEY as JAZARAG

Written by ALEX KINGSLEY, J. R. STEELE, and NIGEL MCKEON
