1 1 y separately published work icon Doodling Jonathan Gould , California : Jonathan Gould , 2011 Z1855867 2011 single work novella young adult fantasy 'Neville Lansdowne fell off the world.

'Actually, he did not so much fall off as let go. The world had been moving so quickly lately and Neville was finding it almost impossible to keep up.

'Doodling is an engaging comic fantasy which relates the events that befall Neville after he finds himself abandoned by the world and adrift in the middle of an asteroid field. Douglas Adams meets Lewis Carroll (with just a touch of Gulliver's Travels) as Neville wanders through his new home, meeting a variety of eccentric characters and experiencing some most unexpected adventures.'
