Once upon a time, in an alleyway in the slums of the City of Lockes, a young and somewhat lonely boy named Sam Haversford turns a group of teenage douchebags into stone completely by accident. Of course, this catches the attention of a higher power, and Sam's pulled from the only world he knows to become an apprentice to the king's wizard, Morgan of Shadows. When Sam's 14, he enters the Dark Woods and returns with Gary, the hornless gay unicorn, and a half-giant named Tiggy, earning the moniker Sam of Wilds. At 15, Sam learns what love truly is when a new knight arrives at the castle - Knight Ryan Foxheart, the dreamiest dream to have ever been dreamed. Naturally, it all goes to hell when Ryan dates the reprehensible Prince Justin, Sam can't control his magic, a sexually aggressive dragon kidnaps the prince, and the king sends them on an epic quest to save Ryan's boyfriend, all while Sam falls more in love with someone he can never have. Or, so he thinks.… (more)

This is seriously one of the most hilarious books that I have ever read! I think this is my 3rd reread of this one :) ( )

5 OMFG Stars!!

What the hell was that??? Seriously???

There really isn’t much to say since it's already been said.

Do you want to laugh? Do you want to have fun? Do you want grand adventure and swoony romance, all the while having the time of your life?

If you haven’t already subscribed to Klune’s brand of humor, then please sign up right here.

This was a mile a minute of snark, banter, and glee, as it delivered so much on all the things I love in a fantasy romantic comedy; things I didn’t even know I wanted or needed. Every character - main and supporting, small and large - brought their own very special crazy that only exponentially increased the enjoyment factor. (I'm definitely a Tiggy girl!) Though this obviously doesn’t take itself too seriously, it still has plenty of heart - there’s definitely no shortage on the feels.

I had my doubts (yeah, I know I shouldn’t’ve) but the genius here is truly impressive. I’ve never been so thoroughly entertained!! ( )

I had thought How to Be a Normal Person would be the funniest book I read this year. Nope, The Lightning-Struck Heart by the same author edged it out. Both are wonderful. ( )

OH MY GODS

okay I have to admit when I first started reading this I was like what the f$&@ is this... I have loved every book I have read by TJ and was sure this was going to be the first one I hated. Boy was I wrong, I couldn't stop reading. It was silly and crazy but as usual this book like his others made me laugh out loud and maybe even slightly tear up a few times.

Awesome read! ( )
