A Man and His Unicorn


Read by Anthony Matthews

(4.2 stars; 15 reviews)

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.

a new favorite!

I absolutely loves this. Both the book itself and especially the reading. I saw a lot of poor reviews based on the voicing, but he's hilarious! His timing, the voices, the perfect conveyance of 'oh great, a gay horse.' I was laughing so hard at points I had to stop the tape! I would certainly listen to another book from him, anytime. =D

I love it. s

Hi Anthony, I have to be honest, I have not listened to your novel... yet I was attracted to your book because of the cover art. I love it!!!! Being a graphic designer, I think it's great. I am sure your story is great. I look forward to listening to ...

The story was only poor to fair (though there were some mildly humorous portions). Not only was the audio bad but the narration was (IMNSHO) poor. Unfortunately, I can't recommend this: I fear teenagers would be bored, it's a little risque for children, and adults (like me) might slog through ...

I thought this book was fantastic! (Which is probably a good thing for a fantasy book...) I was absolutely hooked within the first couple of minutes. I loved the humour in it which was often understated and hence all the more amusing. The purity and innocence of the characters was ...

I have just finished The Man and His Unicorn and I loved it and had trouble putting my MP3 player down. The humour was subtle and the story was fairly unique. I have found recently that alot of fantasy novels have the same standardies fight scenes, love scenes and magic. ...

I'm more than half-way through the story so far. (I'm listening to Chapter 15 now.) I'm really enjoying it. While it is a little risque in places, the story is actually pro-abstinence (unicorns have certain requirements for their owners, after all). Vern is strong-armed in to being a hero, and ...

I've listened to the whole "book" now, and while I found it whimsical and fun, the author really needs to practice his reading/speaking skills. The storyline was pretty cool, and I laughed a LOT...but really, the author's voice and timing was a distraction. I know I'm being critical, but I'm ...
