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.

A light story for those of us who like dogs and magic

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

Fun, but pretty short intro.

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.

A Fantastic Listen

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.

fun story for kids

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.

It’s a good novella, but not a novel

The quality of Hayes writing is terrific as always. But it’s very short, just the beginning of a story. It seems like this is the first entry of a novel that was split into novellas. I’m looking forward to reading the other novellas, but going from the epics of Super Powereds to this leaves me feeling like it’s missing a lot.

Heartwarming surprise

Initially I was hoping this would be similar to superpowereds, but was delightfully surprised to find myself in a completely different world. The story is full of imagination and charm often found in Drew Hayes writing. Looking forward to seeing more development in this world he’s created. Wanda and Wumble are such a wonderful pair. <3
