Potatoes, Come Forth!

By: H. Jonas Rhynedahll

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Everett is a down-on-his-luck magical tradesman just trying to make a living. He has manifested the seven spells required to earn the rank of Journeyman Magicker, but few of his spells are useful enough to earn coin, and when he does manage to find work, he is often paid in farm produce. His life is simple, ponderous, and unexciting. Then, almost miraculously, he manifests an eighth spell: Beautiful Woman, come forth! And this is when his troubles truly begin. Potatoes, Come Forth! is a fantasy novel of 89,400 words or approximately 357 pages.

interesting system of technology and Magic

I'm going to say I got this because I read the book and it was one of my first books on Amazon Kindle back when I was still a new thing and then I recently saw a virtual Voice version of this and I thought well it's two bucks I can try it out even if I'm not a big fan of virtual voices over performed narrators. so first off virtual voice wasn't that bad it was at least better than the Google read aloud of voices that I get sometimes when I'm listening to fanfiction or an article online. now answer the story itself it kind of reminds me of some of the earlier books I used to read as a child back in the '80s in the 90s like by such authors as Piers Anthony or Terry Brooks where they have an interesting little conflict between technology and Magic and all those who do have magical talents get a certain number of spells and the Spells can never change or grow more powerful and they only do the exact thing that they say and never anything else for example if you have a spell that asks you to dig up carrots and gather them in a pile that's all it'll do and you can't control what spells you get. alongside that is a continuing development of technology which is more industrious and more usable by everyone though that too like the Spells seems to be spontaneously generated by certain people who just suddenly know how to build things without the normal technological development that we're familiar with in the real world it's an entertaining book and inoffensive I would certainly sit down and listen to it again sometime
