The Fantasy Hive




“This book knows that our kids deserve better, even if our kids are werewolves. An adorable and hilarious journey through the anxieties of parenting a magical kid enrolled in a questionable schooling system. A little apocalyptic humor reminds us that a fight at school isn’t the end of the world—unless it literally is.”
John Wiswell


“Deeply relatable and uproariously funny, The Grimoire Grammar School Parent Teacher Association is an intelligent, sharp story that millennial parents are going to inhale. I felt seen! Rozakis is on her way to becoming this generation’s Pratchett.”
Kritika H. Rao


“Clever, charming, and irresistible, this is magic school as you’ve never seen it before — through the eyes of a nonmagical parent who is trying her best. It is at once painfully real and also brimming with magic and fun, achieving the rare feat of feeling simultaneously familiar and utterly unique!”
Sarah Beth Durst, New York Times bestselling author of The Spellshop

Bob Greenberger

PRAISE FOR DREADFUL
“An absolutely magnificent comedic fantasy with a hint of bite. This book was a witty, empathetic, and genuinely funny meditation on the nature of good and evil. It was easily one of the best books I’ve read this year.”
Olivia Atwater


“DREADFUL is pure fun. Caitlin Rozakis delivers a (loving) send up of classic fantasy tropes alongside a compelling redemption story and plenty of quirky humour. The Dread Lord Gavrax (or Gav, as his memoryless alter ego prefers) is a fantastic character, alternately chilling and sympathetic, and readers will also love the cast of seemingly stock fantasy characters with endearing hidden depths. Highly recommended.”
Heather Fawcett, bestselling author of Emily Wilde’s Encyclopaedia of Faeries


“It was very kind of Caitlin Rozakis to write this book for me. Sure, the rest of you should like it too, but it was clearly written for me, with all the elements I love: fun and humor, breaking fantasy tropes, interesting and complex questions about identity and redemption, and some delightful goblins!” -Jim C. Hines, author of Goblin Quest


“A spellbinding (literally) massacre of all our favourite tropes, underscored with a pleasing dry wit.”
Tom Holt


“Caitlin Rozakis cleverly takes the tropes of a fantasy story and upends them in creative and entertaining ways, freshening the genre.”
Robert Greenberger, Editor, Thrilling Adventure Yarns


“With a unique and razor-sharp voice, Rozakis cleverly flips the script on your typical swords-and-sorcery fantasy in Dreadful, with a bumbling dark wizard, a grumpy kidnapped princess, and a crew of smarter-than-they-seem sycophants and goblins who actually run the place. Magic and adventure meet absurdity in a tale that turns tropes on their heads while delivering unexpected twists, clever banter, and irreverent humor. Readers will tear through this quick-witted and fast-paced novel and search eagerly for Rozakis’s next creation.”
Mary Fan


“Outrageously funny and self aware, Dreadful is perfect for fans of The Princess Bride. Rozakis blends wit and whimsy with a deft hand in this charming debut that had me laughing with every page-turn. A vital addition to the cozy fantasy genre”
Rosiee Thor, author of Tarnished are the Stars


“Caitlin Rozakis’s debut novel, Dreadful, is an absolute delight. Her characters, from the conflicted Gav to the supporting cast, are fully realized and believable beings within their fantastical world. The plot is fast-paced and by turns funny, horrifying, and utterly relatable. I didn’t want it to end, even as I kept reading “just one more page” because I couldn’t wait to find out what happened next.”
Hildy SIlverman


“Rozakis has conjured a spellbinding debut that is just what it seems to be: clever, whimsical, and a little spicy.” — E.C. Myers, Nebula Award–winning author


“Dreadful is magnificent! Fun, funny, and brilliantly insightful, this book is such a joy! I absolutely loved every second of it!” – Sarah Beth Durst, award-winning author of The Bone Maker
