This episode's story, taken from our Mermaids & Mythology issue, is Ladies of the Abyss, by Alex Rollings, read by Matthew Blurton.

Alex Rollings is a self-published author of weird and ridiculous tales, based in Glasgow, Scotland, who teaches through the day and writes through the night. 

If you enjoyed this short story, then you might enjoy Adventuring with Extreme Prejudice, which follows Percy, a lad destined for a tedious future of words and numbers, as he apprentices himself to Marc, a man hunting a murky kind of glory. Percy’s decision will take him to the deepest, darkest places and put his world’s future squarely on his somewhat scrawny shoulders, and before the end, Percy will learn that being a hero is a dirty job.
