as time doth stretch toward a year.
“That doesn’t mean he’s trying to get into Sam’s butthole,” Kevin whispered. “It’s not a love poem.”
“What the hell,” Zero moaned. “This is the worst.”
“You will call me your mother,” Leslie said as she stared manically at Kevin and Zero.
“We should have stayed in the cave,” Pat sighed.
“Sam of Wilds,” the Great White said, “do you accept my offer?”
Because it’s always been you, Sam. I promise. I promise. I promise, because when I look upon these stars, there is nothing I wish for more than you.
I love you, I thought, even as I said, “I accept your offer.”
The Great White reared up, wings spread wide, eyes burning a blinding white. “Then prepare yourself, my apprentice.”
The dragons of Verania roared around me.
I closed my eyes.
And accepted my destiny.

A Wish Upon the Stars
By TJ Klune
Nearly a year ago, blinded by grief and betrayal, Sam of Wilds made a desperate decision to follow the Great White into the Dark Woods. Now, he emerges to a world changed.
The C
ity of Lockes is a prison. The King has been locked away in the dungeons. The Kingdom of Verania has fallen, and the Dark wizard Myrin sits on the throne.
But soon after his return, Sam learns of a resistance fighting in his name, led by a courageous knight, a defiant prince, a pissed-off unicorn, and a half-giant who wants to smash everything in sight. If he has any hope of defeating the villains who have taken their home, Sam must face the consequences of his choices—and the friends he left behind.

More from TJ Klune
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 fourteen, 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 fifteen, 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.
