'Hilarious and heartfelt' JAMIE PACTON

' Bromantasy asks the age old question of “Fellas, is it gay to pine after your homie for a decade before having to confront it while on a magical quest?”' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

'Chock full of cosiness, fun, found family, skincare mishaps, and totally platonic wrestling with a bro that Juniper definitely doesn’t want to kiss' AUGUST BLOOM

'Part quest shenanigans, part squabbling royals, part part found family, and fully queer delight' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

'A deliciously cozy fantasy romp' REBECCA PODOS

⚔️❤️⚔️❤️⚔️❤️⚔️❤️⚔️❤️

Two heroes. One brain cell.

Fellas, is it OK to kiss your bff while on a quest through the forest you’re unqualified for?

Juniper O’Reilly is good at only two things: demolishing a pint of mead and finding the perfect skincare routine. Everything else – taking care of the farm, bartering for goods, any sort of manual labour – falls to Juniper’s best friend, the absurdly capable, endlessly patient Mo Elmthorn.

But when Juniper accidentally volunteers them both for a quest to kill a fearsome monster, he knows he’s finally gotten in over his head. Juniper hates camping, he hates the dark, and there’s no way all these foraged mushrooms are going to sit well in his stomach. One thing he doesn’t hate? How good Mo’s thighs look in his questing pants – he doesn’t have time to think about that, though, with a monster to hunt and their futures on the line.

But monsters come in all shapes and sizes. When Juniper and Mo realize that the terrifying beast they’ve sworn to kill is just a scared little girl torn from her family, they’re off to find not only the true villain of the story, but maybe even a happy ending.

Critic reviews

'A deliciously cozy fantasy romp brimming with charm, cheese, anti-monarchical sentiment, and two bros spectacularly failing their quest to pretend they aren’t in love with one other' Rebecca Podos, bestselling author of Homegrown Magic
'By turns hilarious and heartfelt, with jokes for days, sly references to our world (SMART goals for a quest! Scrolling via actual scrolls!), and absolutely loveable best bros – who are just friends who like to wrestle, of course – this joyful romp of an adventure made me laugh so much. I couldn't put it down!' Jamie Pacton, bestselling author of The Absinthe Underground and Homegrown Magic
'Chock full of cosiness, fun, found family, skincare mishaps, and totally platonic wrestling with a bro that Juniper definitely doesn’t want to kiss' August Bloom, author of The Tiny Magic Bookshop Praise for Máire Roche:'Fan for life' J. Elle
