Thanks to Titan Books for the free copy of this book.
- I haven’t had as much fun reading a book as I did reading DREADFUL in a long time.
- It’s basically a silly cozy fantasy, poking fun at the tropes of heroes and dark wizards, with lots of misadventures along the way. It’s a little reminiscent of Terry Pratchett’s books with the way it goes over the top.
- I loved everyone in this world. I’d particularly love to see a book from the Mayor’s point of view running a town under a bumbling dark wizard. Basically, more of this, please!
