Abyssal Echoes

Martin Miklas

In a near dystopian future where ocean pollution has rendered aquaculture obsolete, humanity turns to the haunting beauty of farming fish in space - cosmoculture.

Story is a gripping exploration of the human spirit's relentless pursuit of survival and redemption amidst a desolate cosmos, where the terrors of our own creation become a twisted work of art.

 "Abyssal Echoes" is set in a world ravaged by environmental devastation, where the oceans have succumbed to pollution and the Earth is on the brink of collapse. As a last desperate attempt to secure sustenance, humanity turns to an ethereal yet disturbing practice known as spaceculture.

*Cosmoculture, also known as spaceculture is breeding, raising, and harvesting fish, shellfish, and former aquatic plants. Basically, it's farming in space. Global spaceculture is an environmentally responsible source of food and commercial products, helps to create healthier habitats, and is used to rebuild stocks of threatened or endangered species.*
