Mmhmm, for sure. π
I too have gotten some much higher quality spam lately! π
Me too!
This is another excellent one! And I would put the Magician series second only to Dragonlance Chronicles in terms of my favorite classic fantasy series (I guess theyβre classics now, can I call them that? Am I officially old now? π)
Yesssss, so true!!
This was easily the most influential book in my own personal journey. Iβd enjoyed the Narnia and Elfquest books as a young child, but this book really opened that door fully for me, starting a lifetime of fantasy reading and writing. Tanis and Flint and the others are like family to me!

I love it. This was the book that got me into fantasy in like 5th or 6th grade. I had years of fun with Dragonlance books after that, and it greatly influenced my own writing as well!
Cool! π That is exciting, I experienced it for the first time recently. So fun.
"Why do people have to be this lonely? What's the point of it all? Millions of people in this world, all of them yearning, looking to others to satisfy them, yet isolating themselves. Why? Was the earth put here just to nourish human loneliness?"

Yes!!
Absolutely, will do! My TBR list is massive right now, so it could be a while. But I will get there! π
Will do!
Oh man, I wish I had come across this a few months ago! Just released my debut novel not long ago. I'll have to keep it in mind for down the road, though.

Picture of a book, open and lying facedown. Both front and back covers show the book name, Odyssey of the Twins. On the cover, the twin brothers are in the foreground, and Loran has his arm around Jerin. In the background is a wooded area, and high above in the sky is a floating city.
Another one? Okay I'll do this one too. π
Odyssey of the Twins is a YA coming-of-age fantasy tale about brothers who venture out into the world after tragedy strikes. They find friends and allies, but also trouble.

I'm bookmarking this, very interested! (I don't have a store yet, but hope to before long. My first book is YA fantasy, and book two, without giving away spoilers, will definitely fit your criteria).
Genre Eligibility Genre Requirements & Romance: your central plot needs to be Fantasy or SciFi or a genre mashup which includes Fantasy and or SciFi. Books where the central plot is a romance (and the SciFi/ Fantasy elements are mere backdrop to it are, alas not a good fit for this blog. Books with romantic subplots are ok, so long as there's a Fantasy/ SciFi or subgenre of either main plot. Eg. Ready Player One, SciFi with a romance arc where both LI's are also saving the (future) world from a SciFi villain would be fine. Rep Eligibility Minimum Rep Requirement: Queer inclusive and normative Fantasy and SciFi. (Meaning at the very least you have queer side characters. And characters in your book do not expect everyone to be cis/ het -your book is not cis-het normative. Cis/ het and queer authors are all welcome.) Especially welcome: Queer main characters -especially trans- especially written by queer/ trans authors! Bonus Rep: found family/ friendship group rep. Disability -including neurodivergent- rep, and -if your books is set on Earth- cultural and ethnic diversity. Categories Eligible: YA and Adult Fiction, short stories, novellas and full length novels.
Fantasy & SciFi Authors Selling Direct,
It seems we need direct sales visibility, so I'm setting up a blog (inclu. small press) to share our stores!
See the screenshot for eligibility. Q's welcome!
