What happens when ancient cosmic beings encounter the ridiculous logic of modern humanity?
Welcome to SAMSARAVERSE: SATIRE SITCOM, a collection of 32 absurd, witty, and delightfully unconventional satirical stories from the SAMSARAVERSE universe. The mysterious Karma Broker has negotiated with desperate souls for centuries. But nothing has prepared him for internet trolls, corporate lawyers, dating apps, insurance agents, and humans who have turned avoiding responsibility into a profitable business. The Masked Minister, a master of comforting words and false mercy, discovers that modern institutions are surprisingly compatible with his philosophy. From customer service departments and marriage counseling to airlines, artificial intelligence, and government bureaucracy, every problem can apparently be solved by changing its definition.
Meanwhile, Nolan Schulman discovers that even eternity cannot protect him from terrible customer service. PREETS questions humanity's obsession with convenience and control. Vesper Brown creates systems that promise perfect lives-provided nobody makes an independent decision. And the ancient Bird King encounters a civilization determined to regulate everything, including nature itself.
Blending science fiction, philosophical humor, workplace comedy, and social satire, this collection explores humanity's extraordinary talent for complicating simple things. The stories are humorous, exaggerated, and entirely non-canon. No previous knowledge of the SAMSARAVERSE novels is required. Because sometimes the universe doesn't need another catastrophe. It just needs a customer service department.
No Heroes. No Villains. Just Ridiculous Consequences.
