Do you enjoy listening to things that go bump in the night? Do you imagine what your favorite horror characters sound like in real life? Enter Psuedopod, a site devoted to bringing you original fiction read by passionate readers. The authors are paid for their efforts, yet the site is free to listeners and survives on the hearts…er…donations of others.

The site is a production of Escape Artists, Inc. and also features a separate podcast site devoted to the best of science fiction and fantasy called Escape Pod.

This particular podcast features the work of Monica Valentinelli entitled “Prey.” This piece of flash fiction is about a necromancer’s moonlit ritual, and was written from the point-of-view of a bird of prey.

Pseudopod was kind enough to allow us to share this fiction with you. We invite you to listen and show your appreciation by letting the author and Pseudopod know what you think!
