Book Description

June 15, 2011
Dismayed by a basement-apartment existence supported by two low-paying radio jobs, twenty-something workaholic Nicki Rodriguez experiences a dramatic change in outlook when fate transports her to an even lousier place-a distorted world inhabited mostly by canine-humanoids trapped in a dimension somewhere between new Jersey and outer space. Nicki searches desperately for her pilfered portfolio containing ten thousand hard-earned dollars, praying that her life-threatening dimension burn will heal, so she can try to return to "regular new Jersey" and her old life. All the while, Perswayssick County's greedy, tail-wagging leader, self-described "business maggot" Dr. B. Z. Z. Gneeecey, is selling out Perswayssick County to a mob of waxy-faced gangster-style aliens. and he's convinced them that Nicki has something they need!

5.0 out of 5 stars Fun Read, February 20, 2012
This review is from: The Getaway That got Away (Paperback)
Sola's imagination and sense of humor kept me turning the pages. The book is a modern day "Alice In Wonderland" with the main character, Nicki Rodriguez, stuck in another dimension populated with strange beings, posessing their own weird lexicon. It's a laugh and a half per page. I can easily see the story converted into an animated movie. The characters are that good! I recommend it for pre-teens through adults.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Getaway That Got Away, February 12, 2012
This review is from: The Getaway That got Away (Paperback)
Planet Ecchs ! Perswassick County ! Here comes Nicki Rodriguez or better known as "Ig" as per Dr. B.Z.Z. Gneeecey. Nicki is found in a world full of technicolor and canine-humanoids that won't let her go home. The adventures of Nicki,Fleagosity, the mafia trio "Mark & Mark & Mark", Culvert,the driver-duck, Cleveland, Flubbblub, and so many list of characters to keep the pages moving. Let alone, the menu has some gourmet sandwiches to remember, and of course quick pick-me-up, Merk Perk. They are out to save the earth, along with the good diroctor, who makes the reader go through an emotional roll-a-coaster. But Nicki, takes them all on and she's not dreaming. Days turn into hours to save the earth. Fun reading for the Sci-Fi fanatic. Vicki Sola,describes each and every word, creating the feel of each character. Enjoy everyone and have fun!!!!!!
