About this listen
Imagine if Edgar Allan Poe’s poetic darkness met the mind-bending tales of American Horror Story. Rowdy Olson’s Diary of a Dying Describer: Volume 1 isn’t just about tales—it’s about experiences that lurk in the shadows of our own minds. This isn’t merely listening—it’s an encounter. Dare to dip into the abyss?
“Greetings curious travelers. I invite you to delve into the haunting pages of my personal diary, where I have recorded some of the most eerie and unnerving tales from the far reaches of my imagination. These stories range from cautionary tales with deadly moral lessons to tales plucked from the most terrifying nightmares.
Beware, for not all creatures are what they appear to be.
Some nightmares leave lasting impressions.
Religion can sometimes breed dangerous beliefs.
And so much more.
Join me as I take you on a journey through the twisted and distorted remnants of a once beautiful world, as derived from the diary of a dying describer.”

In the middle of the night, in a house on a quiet street in suburban Minneapolis, intruders silently murder Luke Ellis' parents and load him into a black SUV. The operation takes less than two minutes. Luke will wake up at The Institute, in a room that looks just like his own, except there's no window. And outside his door are other doors, behind which are other kids with special talents - telekinesis and telepathy - who got to this place the same way Luke did: Kalisha, Nick, George, Iris, and 10-year-old Avery Dixon.

Except, perhaps, for Winston Smith. Whilst working at the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history, he secretly dreams of freedom. And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

When Heather McKinley dreamed of becoming a doctor, she imagined curing sick kids and sporting pink stethoscopes. She never anticipated the sleepless nights, grueling exams, and endless labs. And she certainly never knew that her medical school earned the nickname Dead Med thanks to the tragic history of students overdosing on illegal drugs. But Heather would never consider doing anything like that. That is, until her longtime boyfriend dumps her, she finds herself failing anatomy, and her world starts to crumble.

The 13 chapters of The Art of War, each devoted to one aspect of warfare, were compiled by the high-ranking Chinese military general, strategist, and philosopher Sun-Tzu. In spite of its battlefield specificity, The Art of War has found new life in the modern age, with leaders in fields as wide and far-reaching as world politics, human psychology, and corporate strategy finding valuable insight in its timeworn words.

Each story was a unique ride…
The author has a unique way of storytelling. Each of the stories in this anthology held a uniqueness, yet blended well with the others. The twists and turns will have you wanting to listen again to try and catch the nuances that build the storyline. I like stories that don’t follow the usual “horror recipe”, leading to predictability. This author’s storytelling style is unique in that you will be guessing until the very end. I can’t wait to see Volume 2!
