About this listen

Former friends and former flames reunite on a mayhem-spike quest in this cozy romantasy perfect for fans of Legends & Lattes and lovers of Shrek.

“This delightful novel has the best The Princess Bride vibes.”—Jodi Picoult

TEN YEARS AGO, THEY SAVED THE REALM. IT RUINED THEIR LIVES.

Everyone in Mythria knows the story of how best friends Beatrice and Elowen, handsome ex-bandit Clare, and valiant leader Galwell the Great defended the realm from darkness. It’s a tale beloved by all—except the heroes. They haven’t spoken in a decade, devastated by what their quest cost them.

But when they all receive an invitation to the queen of Mythria’s wedding, it’s a summons they can’t refuse . . . and a reunion for the ages—with Clare secretly not over his long-ago fling with Beatrice, Beatrice fighting the guilt she feels over how everything ended, Elowen unprepared for the return of her ex-love (the cunning Vandra), and all of them lost without Galwell. And if reuniting with former friends and lovers wasn’t perilous enough, dark forces from their past have also returned.

Dusting off old weapons and old instincts, Beatrice, Clare, and Elowen will face undead nemeses, crystal caves, enchanted swords, coffee shops, games of magical Truth or Dare, and, hardest of all, their past—rife with wounds never healed and romances never forgotten.

This time around, will their story end in happily ever after?

“Witty, romantic, and addictively fun!”—Sarah Beth Durst, New York Times bestselling author of The Spellshop

“If you like stories full of voice, humor, and heart, look no further.”—Megan Bannen, USA Today bestselling author of The Undertaking of Hart and Mercy

“A terrific read for anyone who loves to get swept away by the magic of a fabulous fantasy novel.”—India Holton, USA Today bestselling author of The Wisteria Society of Lady Scoundrels

A Whimsical Quest for Friendship and Magic

E.B. Asher's This Will Be Fun is a delightful blend of fantasy and friendship. This cozy quest follows a group of diverse friends as they embark on a magical adventure, as well as come to terms with their individual trauma from their first quest.

The characters are endearing and relatable, each with their own unique quirks, strengths, and struggles. The world-building, while not overly complex, is imaginative and charming.

While the plot may not be groundbreaking, the book's true strength lies in its ability to evoke feelings for the reader as the characters overcome their pasts and work through their relationships.

Accent inconsistency

I loved this book but the performance was not great. The accents of the characters were inconsistent and made this a hard listen. I hate when readers try too hard to do an accent they are clearly not meant to do. One of the main characters slipped in and out of a Slavic accent and a French accent and the handsome rogue character occasionally had a country accent? It was messy. The only reader I enjoyed was the voice of Beatrice's chapters.

Slapstick fantasy with emotional resonance

I really liked this fantasy, it was hard at first to believe this wasn’t an actual sequel, because the story is told as a sequel to an epic adventure that crushed our heroes and left them reeling for ten years. Picking up at that ten year mark, we meet our rag tag hero crew and learn about all their stories and regrets. I enjoyed the cinematic humor, like when Clare did something embarrassing and the thieves are described as being actively embarrassed for him.

A fun adventure

This was a fun story. The multiple viewpoints made it fun to follow, some of the voice accents were hard to understand, but overall it was done well.

Atrocious voice acting

The voice actors' accents are inconsistent and distracting, often sounding unnatural or completely different from their usual narrating voices. To make things worse, the same side characters have different accents between chapters, which made listening very confusing and frustrating. The narration really needs to be re-recorded!
