About the Creator- Drew Hayes

About the Creator

Drew Hayes is an author from Texas who has written several books and found the gumption to publish a few (so far). He graduated from Texas Tech with a B.A. in English, because evidently he's not familiar with what the term “employable” means. Drew has been called one of the most profound, prolific, and talented authors of his generation, but a table full of drunks will say almost anything when offered a round of free shots. Drew feels kind of like a D-bag writing about himself in the third person like this. He does appreciate that you're still reading, though.
Drew would like to sit down and have a beer with you. Or a cocktail. He's not here to judge your preferences. Drew is terrible at being serious, and has no real idea what a snippet biography is meant to convey anyway. Drew thinks you are awesome just the way you are. That part, he meant. Drew is off to go high-five random people, because who doesn't love a good high-five? No one, that's who.

She continues to follow her dreams of taking over the universe, circling the globe on two wheels and trying to bake the perfect biscuit.

The premise of this book is wonderful! A dog gets real power and does... dog things. It loves it's partner, loves belly rubs, and loves fetch. Despite being beyond overpowered, the dog does not change at all. The partner has no idea and remains unchanged as well. I just wish this book was longer, as it is very well written.

A Fantastic Listen

This is a beautiful story. I look forward to book 2. This a wonderful tribute to the memory of DH furry friend.

this was a very cute story, the characters were enjoyable. my issue was that the narrator was easy to tune out and struggled to distinguish her characters and topics. this story felt a little rushed, there wasn't much building of what was going on and at times I got confused on how things transpired.

sweet but rushed

It reminded me of playing DnD as a child, and will probably read the second one even though it's not aimed at my age group.

fun story for kids

I suppose it says something quite good about a work if the primary complaint is that you want more!
Seriously though, this is more like "Book 1, Episode 1" than an actual whole book, with most other similar books being at least 5 to 10 times the length per book. I really hope this isn't just a strategy to work around Audible's pricing model by spliting one regular book up into a bunch of tiny "books" that they can still charge 1 credit each for?
Super great story! Not a great value in terms of content per dollar.

Way too short!

This is a light story for those of us who like dogs and magic and has great promise. As you sure, the story is being told in a way that builds up the suspense and enriches the story at the same time.Can't wait for the next one

Like most of Hayes’s stories, this one is engaging and interesting, but for the first time, I had a terrible time actually listening to the whole story - and this is barely a novella! I guess I’ve become spoiled by voice actors because this narrator is simply a reader, clearly not an actor. The whole story is read with the insipid artificial cheer and excitement throughout like she’s reading to a toddler, regardless whether it’s appropriate for the tone of the scene. The only thing worse is computer reading.

Poor narration

This is not my normal genre, but I found the writing solid, and enjoyed the characters quite a bit. This felt like the opening half of a full novel due to a pretty short duration of a bit over 3 hours. That issue aside, it certianly got my attention, and will likely check out the next entry in the story.

Fun, but pretty short intro.

Reads like the opening quest of a fantasy game. Lots of fun and lots of heart!
