A laugh-out-loud tale of love, life lessons and an odd little man named Mungo Thunk.

Bathroom scales were not an appropriate gift for his fiancée’s birthday...apparently.

Ever since he ate seven pickled gherkins for lunch at school and subsequently shat himself during a maths lesson, Adam Maxwell has been cursed by a lack of common sense.

Now in his early 30s, that lack of common sense is about to throw Adam’s life into turmoil after one particularly ill-judged decision backfires...with disastrous consequences.

As Adam begins a rapid descent towards rock bottom, a strange little man by the name of Mungo Thunk enters his life. However, not everything about Mungo Thunk is as it first seems. After insisting Adam can rediscover his common sense by agreeing to an unorthodox brand of therapy, the two set about dealing with a raft of challenges.

Can Adam trust the mysterious stranger to fix his thinking and get his life back on track? Or, will he come to rue the day he invited Mungo Thunk into his life?

I read the Mungo Thunk a couple of years ago and loved it. As is my practice if I have read a book I enjoy and it is available on audible I will purchase it and listen to it.
So This was my second time round with Mungo Thunk. It was a very enjoyable experience. The story was as good as I remember and the narration was very very good. The narrator bought Mungo to life, the voice for Mungo was exactly how I imagined it should be. It bought out the quirkiness of Mungo's character. I am a big fan of the author Keith A Pearson and have got all of his ebooks and I am slowly collecting them on audible. I have very much enjoyed listening to them.

Mungo Thunk Just as good the second time around.

Funny, tragic, cringey, best thing I listened to for ages, I found it quite an interesting storyline and following the main characters changes n consequently changes in attitude nicely played out

Brilliant

The story started off reasonably well and then improved somewhat with the introduction of the title character. The narration was very well done with the exception, maybe, of the protagonist’s mother who was made to sound around 90! Having said that, this was, I would say, the fault of the author rather than he narrator, as it was the way she was written (calling her son ‘young man’ more in the manner of a much older woman, even though she was purported to be in her 60’s’. I’m 60 next year and trust me, I don’t speak like that!

The story continued with the usual grammatical errors I’ve now come to expect from the author’s works; ‘sat, stood or knelt’ instead of ‘sitting, standing or kneeling’, ‘tone deaf’ used in the wrong context in chapter five (clearly was meant to be ‘stone’ deaf) and towards the end of the book, ‘residue shock’ rather than ‘residual’. The benefit of the doubt must be given to the author here, however, as it may be a narration error (I haven’t seen the written version).

The last third of the book became rather tedious, centring way too much on how to build up a small business and all the necessary steps that go with that; it felt too much like a filler than a relevant part of the story. It needed to be incorporated for the storyline to grow, but it went on for far too long.

All in all a great story idea which was very well narrated by Stewart Crank, who deserves a special mention. I’m not sure I would have enjoyed it as much had I read it myself. The voice of Mungo was exactly how I felt he should have sounded.

Decent story idea, despite numerous grammatical errors, but obvious from a few chapters in where Mungo had sprung from
