King Gilgamesh—legendary, powerful, and maybe a little bored—is ready for a new quest. To find a hero worthy of joining him on a journey for a legendary treasure in the enchanted forest, he launches a kingdom-wide competition. He wasn't expecting Enkidu, a normal guy with a clever monkey and a lot of heart, to win it all.

Against all odds, this unlikely duo prepares for the adventure of a lifetime. Their quest is a masterclass in chaos as they face mythical beasts and magical mishaps, with Enkidu's mischievous monkey, Chatter, adding to the pandemonium every step of the way.

But while they're wrestling with the dangers of the forest, trouble is brewing back in Uruk. Between Gilgamesh's fiery sister, Ishtar, and an ambitious chief with his own hidden motives, the biggest challenge might be having a kingdom left to come home to.

A hilarious and heartfelt retelling of an ancient myth, The Funny Epic of Gilgamesh celebrates the idea that the greatest adventures are found in the most unexpected friendships.
