About this audiobook

When we think of life on Earth, most of us picture what is above ground: forests of trees, fields of crops, the oceans shimmering under sunlight, or the wildlife moving across landscapes. Rarely do we consider that the true foundation of life — the quiet architecture holding everything together — lies beneath our feet. Hidden in the dark, threaded through soil particles and wrapping around roots, is a vast living web: mycelium. Mycelium is the vegetative body of fungi, composed of tiny filaments called hyphae. To the naked eye, these threads appear almost invisible, finer than human hair, yet collectively they form networks that can stretch for miles. If you’ve ever overturned a log in the woods and seen delicate white threads fanning across the underside, you’ve glimpsed this secret kingdom.
