Education was never quite like this.

In the merry olde land of Albion, teenage peasant Danitha Alder is trapped: stuck in a backwater village unsuited to her high-minded ideals and creative passions. So when she runs away from home and is rescued on the road by knight-in-training Sir Roderick Payne, it feels like fate. A student of the utterly unremarkable St. Cecil’s School of Sword and Sorcery, a gig as Rod’s squire is Dani’s ticket out of her dull provincial life to the adventures and excitement she’s always dreamed of. The only problem is that Rod is arrogant, crass, chauvinistic, and breaks every rule in the book — the perfect cocktail of qualities she can’t stand.

Princess Tessa Blackstone is also trapped: forced by her tyrannical father into a marriage against both her wishes and her identity, alienated from everyone around her by a lifetime of emotional trauma and the walls she’s built around her heart. She desperately desires to escape — and the misfit duo of Rod and Dani may be her only hope.

Battles of wits with dragons. Swordplay — low on swash, high on buckling. Derring-do in dining and dancing. And, of course, humiliations galore. Welcome to Knight School.

A lighthearted, medieval comic academia fantasy for those who love The Princess Bride, A Knight’s Tale, and Don Quixote and want their fantasy to be fun again.
