In Book One of this series, there are three stories. In "Hypnagogia" we meet two residents, Buzz and Magus. While vacuuming dark matter to feed their god, they accidentally kill another god in the process, setting off a bizarre chain of events.
In "The Invalids," Samantha and Norm discover a mysterious microphone in each of their apartments. They decide to investigate, tracing the wires down into the basement of the tower, uncovering a disturbing link between the microphones and a string of bizarre, unsolved murders.
In the final tale, "Under Green Brain," a resident named Crater plugs his ears with a set of earbuds, listening to old self help tapes in order to control his obsession with the hum of radiation inside the walls. He refuses to believe he's been affected by the poisonous tower and is irritated by the madness infecting the others. After a fateful meeting with another resident, he lets go of his inhibitions and dives head first into the madness he's always denied, opening his mind to fantastic visions and wondrous beasts. But he can't help but wonder...is any of it real?
