Praise for Delilah S. Dawson and Kevin Hearne's Kill the Farm Boy A rollicking fantasy adventure that upends numerous genre tropes in audacious style . . . a laugh-out-loud-funny fusion of Monty Python-esque humor and whimsy a la Terry Pratchett's Discworld. -Kirkus Reviews Dawson and Hearne's reimagining of a traditional fairy tale is reminiscent of William Goldman's The Princess Bride and William Steig's Shrek! Irreverent, funny, and full of entertaining wordplay, this will keep readers guessing until the end. -Library Journal Will have you laughing out loud until strangers begin to look at you oddly. -SyFy A smart comedy . . . nuanced, complicated, and human. -Tordotcom [Dawson and Hearne] make fun of the typical 'white male power fantasies,' and in that, they succeed, with their heroes all characters of color and/or falling somewhere under the LGBTQ umbrella. -Publishers Weekly When you put two authors of this high caliber together, expect fireworks. Or at least laughs. What a hoot! -Terry Brooks A rollicking adventure about friendship and finding one's place in the world . . . [a] fantastic series finale. Dawson and Hearne crown their trifecta of tempestuous hilarity with enough puns and fairy tale spoofs to tickle anyone's funny bone. -Booklist (starred review) Challenge[s] gender roles in fantasy and skewer[s] social trends . . . This is a clever send-up of fantasy tropes and modern culture. -Publishers Weekly
