Summary

In Which Many Dangerous and Homosexual Things Happen.

All his life, Sir Cameron has stayed as far away from danger as possible. He is quite frankly too handsome to die a pointless death in battle. But then the Church hands down a prophecy to his fellow knights: the only way to defeat their nemesis, the mad sorcerer Merulo, is to kill Sir Cameron. Short of ideas, Cameron throws himself on the mercy of the one person who now actually wants him to survive: the mad sorcerer.

Merul…

What They're Saying

Critics Review

Goofy and fresh and very, very funny.
-The New York Times

Come for the silliness, stay for the twists.
-Caitlin Rozakis, New York Times bestselling author of Dreadful and The Grimoire Grammar School

When times are hard, comedy feeds the soul. I promise this book will make you laugh. The only way it could be improved is with more man-on-vulture action. Five stars.
-Alexandra Rowland, author of Running Close to the Wind

A rollicking blend of whimsy and madness that kept me on my toes the whole way through. This tale takes the cookie cutter ideal of heroes and villains and twists them into all sorts of new shapes (sometimes quite literally) with delightful results.
-Maiga Doocy, Sunday Times bestselling author of Sorcery and Small Magics

Sir Cameron is one of those heroes that you not only want, but need. Is he brave? No. Smart? Not really. Talented? Absolutely not. Did I relate to him? One hundred percent. He just wants to stay alive, and his antics to do so-like throwing in his lot with an evil sorcerer-lead to a story full of humor, warmth and depth. Stothers takes a fresh slant on time honored tropes, gleefully using them to skewer concepts of identity, gender, class and religion. The result is a hilarious romp full of satire, heart, and the overriding question: who gets to decide what’s evil and what’s good anyway? I thoroughly loved it and recommend it to anyone who enjoys fantasy that makes them laugh.
-Lish McBride, author of Hold Me Closer, Necromancer

From the very first page, I knew I was in for a good time. With vibrant characters, delightfully weird worldbuilding, and an absurd plot, this was one of the most entertaining stories I’ve read this year. If you like outrageous (complimentary) science fantasy, you’re in for an enormous treat.
-Kemi Ashing-Giwa, USA Today bestselling author of The Splinter in the Sky

Full of cozy heart and charm, with a delightfully hilarious main character-I kicked my feet all the way through.
-Charlotte Stein, author of When Grumpy Met Sunshine

A delightfully unpredictable fantasy adventure that turns familiar tropes on their heads in increasingly hilarious ways, Stothers perfectly blends heart, humor, and charming absurdity into your new favorite read.
-Camilla Raines, author of The Hollow and the Haunted

A whimsical, densely plotted queer fantasy deconstruction, flavored with sci-fi, romance, and horror. Recommended for fans of Douglas Adams, Terry Pratchett, or Diana Wynne Jones.
-Library Journal STARRED Review
