Chapel of Ease is an urban fantasy[1][2] novel by American writer Alex Bledsoe, first published in the United States in September 2016 by Tor Books.

[5] Matt Johansson is a gay New York City actor who lands a part in Chapel of Ease, a musical written by playwright Ray Parrish.

In a review in Fantasy Literature, Kat Hooper called Chapel of Ease a "character-driven romance", and said Bledsoe's decision to feature homosexual relationships should please many readers.

[6] She remarked that the novel has the same "eerie atmosphere" as the previous books in the Tufa series, and its "run-down close-minded Appalachian town" has an air of "squalidness, despondency, and desperate menace".

[7] A review in Publishers Weekly stated that Chapel of Ease "skillfully fuses music, legend, and regional atmosphere to create something that feels like an unexplored corner of American mythology.
