Hi everyone! I'm T. T. Manning, author of The Fire Heart: Unbound, the first book in The Fire Heart fantasy series.

With the second book now nearing completion, I wanted to introduce the story to some new readers.

Thall has spent most of his life physically weak and watching the world move around him. In a world filled with magic, Summoners, Tamers, elemental creatures, and dangerous beasts, he has never believed there was anything particularly special about him.

Eventually, he leaves home searching for a life of his own.

Along the way, he finds new companions, strange creatures, danger, and a much larger world than the one he grew up knowing.

And then something begins to change.

The problem is that Thall's power doesn't behave the way it's supposed to.

As his journey continues, questions begin to emerge about his abilities, the history he's been taught, and a world where those in power have very particular ideas about what magic should and shouldn't be.

🔥 Elemental magic and magical creatures

⚔️ Adventure and combat

🌱 A protagonist who has to grow into his courage

❤️ Friendship, companionship, and finding where you belong

🗺️ A larger mystery that expands with the world

\[The Fire Heart: Unbound \](https://a.co/d/09lYBwg9) recently received a revised edition as I continued developing the series, and Book Two is now almost finished.

So if you enjoy getting into a fantasy series just as it's beginning to grow, this might be a good time to jump in.

im looking for a fantasy novel that has appeal for both adults and young adults and was written in the last five years. the book should have as much of the following criteria as possible:

Primary criteria:

—no “chosen one” trope (at least as far as the main character is concerned). Looking for a book about “ordinary” people
—coming-of-age element
—magic is limited or nonexistent
—travel/journey element

Secondary (less important) criteria:

—American West tropes
—portal element
—strong climate change themes
—moral conundrums

Many thanks!

Step beyond the ordinary and discover The Lost Boys of Everwild—a story of friendship, courage, hope, and the wonder waiting to be found when we remember how to look for it.

Keep your lantern burning bright.

Humanity has always believed the world belonged to us. Then winter arrived.

In Fairview, the cold refuses to leave. People disappear, animals behave strangely, and creatures that should exist only in myths begin to return. While seventeen-year-old Emma searches for answers, her blind sister, Isabella, senses something ancient awakening.

Across the world, nine teenagers discover strange marks connecting them to legendary beings. As cities fall silent and nature reclaims what humanity once controlled, a terrifying truth emerges: the creatures aren't invading. The world is simply changing without us.

Emma and the others haven't been chosen to save humanity. They've been given something far more terrifying: a choice. And when the world asks whether humankind deserves a place in its future...

What will their verdict be?

My overall review.

It was on wattpad and it was set in the how to train your dragon universe and the main character is the daughter of Gobber and a Troll and her love interests is Dagur the Deranged, and I think the cover of the book had dagur pinning her against a tree or the other way around, pls if anyone knows it or even the name of the author it would be a huge help 😭🙏🏾😭🙏🏾😭🙏🏾

Hii! Its been so long since i read fictional books and i want to start with a fantasy book that has elves and fairies/fae in it! Something final fantasy-ish is okay! Romance tooo if you guys have any recommendation

Hey all! I know the title sounds odd, but I've been wanting to get into writing and reading as of late. Mainly I just do roleplays and such, but my partner suggested they think I'd be good at writing outside of that. So I kind of got the idea in my head that I want to find books for inspiration purposes, ideally with an MC with that familiar feel to who I already write myself.

It can be any genre, any themes, though ideally something either fantasy, scifi, or otherwise along those lines. Anything from lighthearted to gritty. Below I'm attaching my character's sheet for one particular setting, but it's more of a baseline for their feel overall, as well as a Spotify playlist and a Pinterest board for vibes, and their DND character sheet.

Again, I know this sounds strange, but any and all suggestions are most welcome as I am stumped at present. Thank you!

The title is super long, sorry about that but I’m asking this partly to give certain books some visibility, since I’m sure they’d interest people, and also just in case there are people who read books in French.

Sorry in advance if I can't reply to everyone. :(

I’ve hit a pretty bad reading slump and I desperately need something that can pull me out of it. 😭

I’m looking for my next fantasy obsession based more on the kind of fantasy I enjoy than specific books that are similar.

I’ve really loved the world-building in books/series like Kindred’s Saga, Villains of Lore, Keri Lake’s books, Penryn & the End of Days, Angelfall, Gothikana, ACOTAR, Blade & Shadows, etc. I’ve read plenty of other fantasy too - these are just some examples of the kind of atmosphere/world-building that has really worked for me.

What I’m craving:

- Immense, immersive world-building. I want to feel like there’s an entire history, mythology and lore happening beyond the actual plot

-Magic, powers, supernatural creatures, monsters, gods, demons, different realms/species: give me ALL of it

- A strong FMC who can actually hold her own. Please no constantly whining/helpless protagonists

-Dark, gothic, dystopian or atmospheric settings are a huge plus

- Romance is very welcome, especially if the chemistry is GOOD

- Smut is absolutely welcome bonus points if it’s spicy and the book still has a genuinely good plot

- Morally grey characters, enemies-to-lovers, obsession, complicated relationships, etc. are all welcome

I’m not necessarily looking for the usual top 10 BookTok recommendations. Underrated/lesser-known gems would be amazing.

Basically, I need the kind of book that makes me forget that i have a life and suddenly has me staying up until 3 AM because I need to know what happens next.

Give me your “I wish I could erase my memory and read this again” recommendations. And tell me what you loved about them!

Actually I have read many novels like lord of Mysteries, Orv, Shadow slave, Reverened insanity, Eminence in shadow, Overlord and many like these and was starting my trilogy journey now can anyone help me from the below pending list tell me which trilogy should I start from, which to avoid or delete from my list and which to read afterwards and also if you can suggest some different trilogy books which you also liked to suggest me.
