Abstract

King of Swords follows five teenage friends on the precipice of beginning their adult lives who find themselves transported to a fantasy world inhabited by orcs and dinosaurs. Each major character reacts differently to this world, making their own allies and enemies, and come into conflict with one another, engaging in combat with magic swords and gay subtext. Some of them want to return to Earth, while others seek to find a place in this new world. In the end, they mature, learning to talk through their differences like functional adults, and accept the responsibilities that come with that.
