The Vowels of the Earth

By: Matthew David Brozik

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Jeremiah Carp is happy in his academic career...when a persuasive pair of ad men approach him with an intriguing brief: Work with them to "invent" a new letter. What looks like a lark, however, turns out to be something sinister, and soon Carp has his hands full, hectically helping to head off a huge hassle for humanity.

An interesting and witty story.

I came across this book and decided to give it a try. I'm glad I did. It's difficult to find a good humorous novel, but this one definitely didn't disappoint. The story was coherent, and the writing was solid. It's a great blend of a sophisticated plot and subtle wit. The virtual voice was better than expected but lacked enthusiasm.
