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 à 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
