4.5/5 - As always with TJ Klune's books, I'm adding this to my favourites.

It's about the wizard-to-the-king's Apprentice who is desperately in love with the gorgeous Knight who just so happens to be the Prince's boyfriend. When the Prince gets kidnapped by a Dragon, the apprentice, along with a giant, his best friend and gay hornless unicorn Gary, AND OF COURSE the Knight, all go on a mission to rescue him.
NO, it is not a kid's book.
YES. IT IS JUST AS GREAT AS IT SOUNDS.

It was SO funny. Like, laughing at every page kind of funny.
Half way through I realised most of the jokes were quite sexual and wondered how my not-very-sexual mind could find all this so funny? But then I remembered the author is also ace and clearly that doesn't mean you can't tell those kind of jokes, or laugh at them - quite on the ontrary apparently.

But it's not only a funny story. It's also full of heart.
I care so much about these characters who may seem typical-one sided at first, but ... oh no they are not.
Klune has a way of writing stories that take time to develop into something very powerful, and meaningful, hitting us with strong emotions just as we thought this was a fun ride.

This story has struck my heart with lightning and learning that it is going to be a trilogy made my week. My month even. I can't wait to read the others.
Thank you TJ Klune.
