A Hero at the End of the World is a book about what what happens when the Chosen One doesn’t live up to expectations.
According to prophecy, 17-year-old Ewan Mao is destined to kill the evil tyrant who has been terrorizing Britain for as long as he can remember. But when Ewan chickens out and his best friend Oliver Abrams defeats the villain instead, Ewan’s bright future crumbles before his eyes.
Five years later, Ewan is living at home and working in a coffee shop while Oliver has a job in the government’s Serious Magical Crimes Agency. They haven’t spoken since they were teenagers, but a routine investigation leads Oliver and his partner, Sophie Stewart, to uncover a powerful cult… one that has drawn Ewan into a plot to end the world.

The Book Smugglers fantasy/YA review site rated it “Excellent,” describing it as “a mixture of Fantasy, silly adventure… and romance (both het and LGBT) featuring two protagonists of colour in what I can only describe as a Satirical Romp With Feels.”
