    If you need a fun read. this is the one

    It works on many levels, interaction between a technological man and a magician, helping the world's geniuses to discover the technologies he needs, and interaction with a primitive culture. It also is shot full of humor and plays on famous names. The two highly successful authors have crafted another gem.

    The name of the famous main character is revealed in the book by the way the natives sound it out. The name itself has 3 syllables that the natives interpret into six words. It is simplified to Purple. carefully read the first contact and sound out the name.
