It's been a couple years bud, get back on the horse! You've developed Ananse into a great character and your version of him should have more than one tale. Anyway, great job on both the writing and the acting-character voice work. I think this podiobook is way overdue for a couple of awards, just to bring more attention to it. Anybody reading this should be giving this book a shot. What a great book, but where’s the sequel? It’s been a couple years bud, get back on the horse!

Even though I haven't listened to the book, the summary reminds me a lot of Neil Gaiman's "American Gods". Do the similarities end there or was it an active inspiration for the author? If it's an original story, I might give it a shot. Thanks for your reply!

I knew it was about ancient gods, and was very surprised with the imaginative way he saw this story. He incorporated ancient gods into the modern world with ease and believability. I was impressed with his knowledge the ease he passed the information to his audience. I wasn't bored for one minute. Drew's sense of timing and humor had me amazed and smiling all through this story. I like it and recommend it for any who want a good tale to pass the time. Lost Gods By Drew Beatty

You have quite a cast of unfamiliar characters, but they were all so well written that I had no trouble keeping them all sorted out. Good luck with publishing and thanks for presenting your work in this format. Hi Drew, I loved Lost Gods from start to very creative and unexpected finish.

I gave up writing science fiction because I found keeping on the straight and narrow too hard! Thanks again rabarts for the kind words. Drew Hey Juuro,

My heartfelt thanks for a good listen. I recall I had minor nitpickery over some of the science, but then, I usually have. I love it when mythology finds its way to the mundane world.

I was sure that I had responded already. So, you can also listen to my 1st novel White Trash Land here at Podiobooks.com, and I have a short story on www.horroraddicts.net. If you check out my main blog at www.drewbeatty.com, I usually update it with stories and things of that nature. Thanks for listening! Drew Hey John,
