And the steamy story you can't put down.

Alleria was just a simple, sexually legal illiterate orphan bear huntress girl from the Idiot Farmer Realm, forced to take care of her thirteen younger sisters after her parents tragically died in a cart accident. But one fateful day she chases a bear through the Archway of Not-Like-Other-Girls and ends up transported to the Faerie Realm, only to be tried for her crimes of being there when she's not supposed to.
Her punishment? She must become the fiancée-captive of the brooding, dangerous and mysterious 400,000 year old Prince Darkeyes Sixpack. But he has a dark, secret, sexy and definitely not red-flag-toxic past, and his hatred for her can't be contained, least of all when they are forced to be together in the One Bed Trope Inn. Despite their hatred for each other and Alleria's strong-yet-frail, plain-yet-incredibly-sexy tiny bird body, this 399,982 year age gap will do nothing to stop the irresistible passion welling up deep inside them, and the dangers they face as the dark secrets hidden in the Faerie Realm come to light.

You've read the books, you know the tropes, now get ready to get thrown into the fryer laughing until you can't breathe, all the while finding unexpected joy and meaning in this whimsical spicy fantasy tale that aims to give you a newfound love and appreciation of life, romance, and everything. After all, what's life all about if we can't laugh at ourselves and learn to love and appreciate this messy chaotic world we have, faerie or otherwise?

I’m dead.

If this book was a horror movie, it would be Scary Movie. The horrible puns, the hilarious real-world references. Prince Darkeyes Sixpack. The not-quite-copyright-infringement. I loved all of it. It made me laugh out loud in the midst of my backward seasonal depression at a time when the whole world is on fire. This novel was much needed and I cannot recommend it highly enough.

I tried. I REALLY tried to like this novel.

It soon became a chore to continue to read on until the end. The author told a "funny once" joke as a plot and continued to tell that same joke over and over and over again, page after tedious page. And it wasn't even a particularly enjoyable or memorable joke to begin with! The "humour" (And I'm being generous here...) was firmly entrenched in the pubescent boy stage of development, barely rising above the level of fart and poop jokes. All in all, a marvelous disappointment.

DNF. 31 pages in and not seeing any "humor" that others rave about. I like satire, I like irony, I like books that poke fun. This one just seems to bash you in the face repeatedly how stupid the author finds the romantasy genre and all those who read it.

DNF

I initially started this book thinking it would be a fun, easy read. I was mistaken. I stopped reading it a few days ago and cannot seem to bring myself to continue. Whatever humor might be found in this book is simply not my taste whatsoever.

[Sydney Vogelsang · Rating 4 out of 5]

This book was really fun to read. I was laughing out loud at the titles of chapters, the character names, as well as the actual story. The only reason that I took a star off is because I could only read a few chapters at a time. Sometimes, the satire was a little too much for me personally, in the sense that I couldn’t binge the book. Still incredibly entertaining!

the blurb is enough proof that this is THE romantasy book of all time.

will check it out when there's more reels about it on instagram.

This book was pretty hilarious! Literally laughed out loud at times!

[Kaydee Davidsmeyer · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is nothing but satirical gold!! read with an open mind and a good reference sheet to pop culture.

[Christine · Rating 1 out of 5]

I wanted to likes this book! I heard about it on Tiktok and followed the author, I waited for the audio book. Followed him on Tiktok and commented on his videos. I thought the description was amusing but I figured there would be some skill to comedy. I was so disappointed.

The author should have studied more about timing and jokes and why a joke is funny. How to let the audience breath before throwing in another pun. The first 8 minutes I did listen too was references to other things. All his descriptions were comparisons. He mentions Tiktok and the Oscar slap and there was another comparison with names I didn't' get so I didn't even understand that moment of writing.

It's not Whimsical the satire is not clever.

I wasn't looking for a captivating book, just something funny and silly with clever humor. Not a book that reads as if a bunch of 16 year old boys sat around collaborate on how to write a fantasy book.

I was going to post this on Audible but it told me I hadn't listened to enough of the book to write a review. I wasn't going to chance it and I really wanted my credit back.

If you love making fun of Romantasy tropes, this could be the book for you. If you love ever inventful names of genitalia, this could be the book for you. If you'd like an explanations how well endowed fae men mate with frail birdlike mortal teenage women, you might find that out too. Or if you just like oddball books, this could be for you.

I love the fun in this book, sometimes it tried a little too hard making fun, because at the end of the day, you still have to tell a story. I like how this ended, just needs a little more balance on the satire versus the story telling.

[Natalie Allaz · Rating 1 out of 5]

I had to DNF unfortunately, I thought it was humorous at first and then it was just silly boy humor that wasn’t as funny since the same jokes were used over and over.

[Megan Russ · Rating 3 out of 5]

3.25 for this hilarious ride.
For those reviews saying there is no spice. There were 2 open door scenes, along with an on-page description of 2 scenes the character watched. As for the writing style, yes it very much reads like a bored teen took every trope in the Romantasy Genre and put it into a 350pg book. And it was great!
If you can read a book that doesn't take itself too seriously, and an author who isn't afraid to be honest in his writing. This one is for you. Evan took every possible trope and turned it on its head or made fun of it in the most obvious way. I loved Miss Backstory and the wisdom of her Grandfather Plot Armor.
The scenes where 'plot holes' pop up are hilarious and right on the nose. That bear-hunting strength failing right at the perfect moment was excellent.
THIS IS SATIRE!! If you go in expecting this to be a serious book, you will be disappointed.
The sad thing about this whole thing. There was still a plot under all the nonsense...and to be honest, a slightly better plot than some of the books it made fun of. Well done Evan.

[Holly · Rating 2 out of 5]

Had some funny moments at the beginning, but far fewer as it went on. All of the character names are very on the nose and ridiculous, everyone's hot and horny for the sake of it. The same joke is told approximately every other paragraph and your eyes just sorta start glazing over the text naturally. Most of the jokes are fart jokes, about body parts, or a reference to a celebrity/franchise.

Its mostly pulling from A Court of Thorns and Roses for the 1st and 3rd acts, and Fourth Wing for the second. Some valid criticisms of the genre tropes and those books are present, but it feels like the author just watched a rant review of the books and based it entirely on those.

Overall, this is a book I read, it kept me mildly entertained for the night but I would not reach for it again or recommend it to anyone. It has left me curious about the authors other works because despite everything I've said, I kind of like his writing style.

[Shannon Loy · Rating 1 out of 5]

I made it about 30 pages in and just couldn’t keep going. I like humor in books, but this had the sense of humor of a 14-year-old boy. There were WAY too many jokes, and it felt like the author was trying way too hard to make every sentence funny. The problem was, the jokes weren’t witty or clever; they were mostly just crude. I’m talking sex, poop, horny jokes, etc. After a while, I genuinely felt like I was reading the inner monologue of a teenage boy trying desperately to make his friends laugh. It was just too much for me.

I think the story could have had a lot more potential if the humor had been toned down and written with more wit and subtlety. A few well-placed crude jokes can absolutely be funny, but when nearly every sentence is trying to land a joke, it gets exhausting fast. I wanted to like this one, but the writing style just wasn’t for me.

[Ryann · Rating 5 out of 5]

If you need a pick-me-up, I highly recommend Fairy Court Dragon Sex Magic.
This book was everything I wanted it to be. It pokes fun at all of the ridiculous tropes in fantasy romance but still has a decent plot to follow. The names of the characters were one of my favorite things.
There were witty jokes, immature jokes, and some great references that all had me cackling. The fourth wall? Never heard of her.
I had the audiobook playing while I read (single narration done by the author) and it was honestly perfect. He didn’t use falsetto voices for the feminine characters but still had distinct enough voices that I could differentiate between them.
Definitely will reread from time to time when I need dopamine.

[Susan Buchanan · Rating 3 out of 5]

This book was fun, but definitely not for people who can't take a joke, take themselves and the things they enjoy way too seriously, or can't laugh at themselves. I would say the humor had me more facepalming and snickering rather than rolling on the floor in stitches, and after a while, it got a bit redundant. The novelty of it just wore off. I think I had more fun seeing all the characters from all the popular romantacy books in one story and how they interacted. This book absolutely recognized all of the quirky things about romantasy tropes we all tend to scratch our heads over, and it 100% recognizes the fatigue some have with the genre. I think, going forward, I will be wondering how the author would characterize any characters I come across within the genre in the future. Hope there is a sequel!

[Nathalie · Rating 4 out of 5]

So this book took me about two months to read because it’s demented and I had to put it down and then pick it back up to make sure I read what I read and then put it back down again. But I’m still giving it four stars because I’m slightly demented. It is ridiculous and over the top and even though parts of it drove me absolute batty, I actually really like the stupid book. There were moments that had me cackling and other moments that had been rolling my eyes so far back I’m pretty sure I physically damaged something. But in all of its absurdity is a really predictable, but still entertaining story.

Peasant Gods Tier

Is this the best romantasy book I've ever read? No. And I've read a lot of romantasy, so that's saying something. It was delightfully unhinged. Absolutely outstanding and equally terrible. At times hard to read (in that intentionally cringey, why are we like this sort of way), but I have never laughed so hard at a book. I sincerely hope the author picks up that impressive, throbbing, gloriously veiny pen and gives us a sequel. Give me that obvious love triangle trope we're flirting with here. We are all dumber for having read this. May the Gods have mercy on our souls. 10/10.

[Catie Ragan · Rating 5 out of 5]

This has me rolling with laughter, groaning in embarrassment, and kicking my feet in giddiness. This is a work of pure, unadulterated love and you can tell. Evan Pickering wrote a book that, yes, pokes fun at the little tropes of the romantasy genre, but not in a demeaning way. This book has an engaging plot, powerful (or perfectly weak) characters, and expertly-timed comedy. Even better, an author with passion for his art that shines through what he does. I can’t express how much this book deserves to be read!!!!

[Josie Ryann · Rating 4 out of 5]

This book is what would happen if the Princess Bride and those early 2000s Scary Movie spoofs had an unholy abomination of a baby that wouldn’t leave their basement. Do not read it if you take your romantasy books seriously and will be offended by their satirization (and especially if Xaden Riorson is your shadow daddy of choice). Do read it if you like irreverent nonsense humor in the style of Airplane! with a side of social and political commentary.

My rating: 🌯🌯🌯🌯

[Gabrielle · Rating 5 out of 5]

Linguistically inventive and relentlessly hilarious.

I could not stop cackling the entire time. The minute you think, "he couldn't possibly come up with another new sentence the world has never seen," you are immediately proven wrong in the most unhinged possible way. And in the end, our characature of a heroine breasted boobily to a genuinely meaningful conclusion. This is easily a new favorite.

[Destiny Gibson · Rating 1 out of 5]

I had to DNF this unfortunately. It is too immature for my taste. There is no humor at all like others are referring too. There is absolutely no spice which I figured given the title it would be Fae, magic and actual intimacy. I got to Chapter 13 . The wording and plot is just very confusing and hard to follow. Very disappointing it’s like it was written by a boy not a grown man.

[Holly Terry · Rating 2 out of 5]

Was hoping it would be better than what it was. Sounds like a middle school boy wrote it. Got very tedious with the same jokes about her "sexiness" and how horny everyone was. Could have been half the page numbers and maybe it would have been better. In this case, size DID matter and it was just too long. Sex joke intended.

[Julie K · Rating 3 out of 5]

This is satire at its best! It is in no way exceptional writing or storytelling, but if you like me read a lot of fantasy and romantasy, this is your perfect palate cleanser. With its not so subtle mockery or several current romantasy favorites, and its many current pop-culture references it will have you giggling for 330 pages.

[Kristin · Rating 1 out of 5]

I really tried... the concept is great but it was just too much. Too over the top. I guess I should've realized it but I just couldn't keep pushing myself to read it... it was a lot of the same over descriptive lines just told slightly differently. Give it a try, you may like it but unfortunately, I just couldnt finish this one.

[Kayleigh Foxx · Rating 1 out of 5]

I wanted to like this. I love a good joke and I enjoy poking fun at romantasy, especially ones I have read. This book, however, is just as tedious to read (if not more) as the romantasy books it parallels. The jokes are repetitive and they just don't land. It tries desperately hard to be funny and it was altogether just painful to read.

[NanClair Duncan · Rating 5 out of 5]

A laugh out loud perfect read

This book is absolutely perfect if you're looking for a lighthearted read to provide a good laugh and a much-needed break from heavier or more serious material. It's the ideal choice for a relaxing and enjoyable summer read.

Fairy Court Dragon Sex Magic

Wow what a wonderful weird story. If you like that forth wall broken every once in awhile and current Hollywood names thrown into a magical medieval sex romp then this is a story for you. Looking forward to the next adventure.

[Jennifer Ottaway · Rating 5 out of 5]

Satire at its finest

Absolutely loved this book. Took my time enjoying the adventure it took me on. I laughed, may have peed a little, & laughed some more. Worth the read & can't wait to go on more adventures.

[Stephanie Haynes · Rating 5 out of 5]

Absolutely must read! I don’t think any trope was missed, just the most perfect Romantasy. I did picture the peasant girl from I laughed the whole way through the book. I definitely recommend this one.
