An io9 Can't Miss Science Fiction and Fantasy title in March 2014.

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.

Würden Sie dieses Buch einem Freund empfehlen? Warum oder warum nicht?

This book is only for people that are really into computers and like playing games with reality.The speaker was unfortunately instructed to speak with a (at least to me) very penetrating voice that grated on my nerves. The beginning is great but after a while the plot becomes very repetitive.

for teenagers only

Was wäre für andere Hörer sonst noch hilfreich zu wissen, um das Hörbuch richtig einschätzen zu können?

(R)ead (T)he E(f)fing (M)anual - errr... ...description - it says: Off to Be the Wizard is a light, comedic novel about computers, time travel, and human stupidity. So, yes, it helps to be "into computers" and "into playing games with reality" and other nerdy stuff.

It is a fun read/listening, at least it has been for me. The speaker is really good (I can't understand the "penetrating voice" statement in an other review) and makes the characters live.

Off to Be the Wizard is a light, comedic novel...

And the best of it: He is turning an already greatly enjoyable Story into an even more plastic experience. A story by the way which will envelop you into hours of delight. Well, that is if you have even an ounce of nerd inside of you. If you do: Stop reading these recensions and get yourself a download already. My listening Queue for once is set.

I think I wouldn't have enjoyed this book as much if I had read it. The narrator really succeeds in bringing the characters to life and giving them depth. The basic premise of to book is simple engaging and funny, but not much happens within the story. The third act feels really rushed and there isn't much surprising happening throughout.
Still, I enjoyed listening to it and didn't struggle to finish it.
One final criticism: The last 30 Minutes are a preview for the next book in the series.

Fun characters, fun setting, not much of a story
