A Man and His Unicorn

8

In this podiobook: Vern was an ordinary college instructor and looking forward to spring break. But on the last day of classes and dreaming about a gorgeous gal, he woke up in a white washed world with nothing there! ... That included his clothes (oops). He found himself on the other side of the mirrors and could look out of any mirror. With a few false starts (didn't that woman ever hear of someone asking for directions), he got himself out and back into the real world and his own home ... He then wished he stayed put.A wizard from a race of humanoid toads wanted Vern to come to his world to aid in defending the toads from two different races. Vern's talents were hidden - he was a special bachelor (did that mean "easy to get rid of"?). He would be a powerful though inexperienced wizard in the other world. "Please come, the situation is desperate", pleaded the toad. Vern, of course, refused. Then after some persuading (and turning Vern's world even more upside down), Vern said he'd think about it.Sunday morning, Vern found himself in another world. "I said I'd THINK about it!" snapped Vern. But he was now committed. After meeting a few individuals who wanted to slice, dice, or otherwise harm him, Vern got into the quest. Then he met a beautiful Red unicorn stallion with magical powers. The unicorn took immediately to Vern. Vern was thrilled - then he remembered why unicorns took to certain people ... Vern didn't have too much success in dating (he swore he was a good kisser). Hopefully, he'll have more success in staying alive.

    Love this
    I love this podcast. So much that I’ve been pacing myself with it. I love that the author is the reader

    Decent work by a novice writer
    I found this book to be a good example of a first novel. The audio quality was poor and the author spoke much too fast. The plot has some good ideas, and an interesting setting, but the story suffers from poor dialog and writing. Still, Matthews shows some potential. In time, he will mature into a competent writer. Certainly it is worth what you pay for it.

    This is great
    this is a funny, imaginative fast moving story that will bring you joy and happiness! it is witty, intelligent and real. the author’s reading is critical to the enjoyment of this tale. there is, in his voice, in his portrayal, particularly of the main character, a truth that i believe could not be captured by another. this podcast is well worth your time.

    Good story
    It's a fun story with a quarky sense of humor, His voice isn't that bad and he does improve in later chapers where his voice doesn't sound so robotic. At least listen to the first 2 chapers.

    Great story but . . .
    The story itself seems great, but I couldn't get past the author's reading of the tale. I could only get to the third chapter before I gave up. I went so far as to try to find the title to read the book but could not locate it. I would love to hear it read by someone else or at least be able to read the book.
