Book Description:
What
can your phone do for you?
This is the story of a girl and her iPhone. No, that’s not quite right. This is
the story of a middle-aged statistician and her best friend. Though she didn’t
consider herself middle-aged. And the best friend was more of a
roommate-with-whom-she’d-developed-a-friendship. And this description
completely ignores the 6,000-year-old elf with whom the woman and her best
friend enjoyed story gaming.
So let’s try this
again.
This is the story of a woman who wished to find love, but who would rather play
story games than actively look for it. Especially in the wake of a horrid
break-up six months before from a man who had never sent her a single gift.
Until this Valentine’s Day, when she received a brand new iPhone in a box with
his name on it.
Between story gaming and succumbing to the phone’s insidious sleekness, she
learns that friendship trumps romance.
In Cracked! A Magic
iPhone Story, award-winning author Janine A. Southard (a Seattle denizen) shows
you how the geeks of Seattle
live, provides a running and often-hilarious social commentary on today’s
world, and reminds you that, so long as you have friends, you are never alone.
