The Smartphone Saga: A Distracted Journey of Spells and Signals
Truck-kun fell from the sky.
It was a terrible accident involving several casualties who found eternal rest. Unfortunately for Jasson Boar, a normal modern teenager, death was just the beginning of his problems.
After a brief conversation with Kami, Jason was reborn in another world. In a feat of divine mercy Kami chose to reconstruct Jasson's phone, avoiding making Jasson's next life Hell on (another) earth.
Unfortunately, Kami decided to put his own spin on things.
Now without a goal or signal, Jasson is left to explore the world in search of both. Wandering with his phone held high, Jasson must overcome being an annoying Gen Alpha and find what matters in life. After all, the “five ‘F’s of life” do not include Phone. It just doesn't work with the acronym FFFFF.
Come with Jasson as he gets a life, starts a substance abuse epidemic, walks right past his love interests while on TikTik, and finds the key to unlimited power (for his phone).
I really enjoyed the quirky use of imagery. The description of the chair that made the man large because he fit it was a very different way of dealing with an age old description necessity. The funny quip about the old house looking good like an old actress with a now rich surgeon really made me feel the age while seeing the pretty new paint. I really "saw" the house size when it was compared to an older brother in a family picture. This author has very unique ways at looking at things and his metaphors are startling, fresh and vivid because of that.
