Many novice authors seem to think that writing a humorous first novel will be easier than writing a more straightforward narrative. Many novice authors are wrong. Fortunately, [a:Scott Meyer|7044164|Scott Meyer|http://d.gr-assets.com/authors/1366826945p2/7044164.jpg] is not one of those. [b:Off to Be the Wizard|17713508|Off to Be the Wizard|Scott Meyer|http://d.gr-assets.com/books/1364823191s/17713508.jpg|24775619] has an interesting premise, which I will not divulge lest I set loose too many spoilers. But suffice it to say that the story is fun, the humor is gentle and natural (not forced or too ha-ha funny), and the characters likable. ( ) no reviews | add a review

Martin Banks is just a normal guy who has made an abnormal discovery: he can manipulate reality, thanks to reality being nothing more than a computer program. With every use of this ability, though, Martin finds his little "tweaks" have not escaped notice. Rather than face prosecution, he decides instead to travel back in time to the Middle Ages and pose as a wizard. What could possibly go wrong? An American hacker in King Arthur's court, Martin must now train to become a full-fledged master of his powers, discover the truth behind the ancient wizard Merlin ... and not, y'know, die or anything.
