Fantasy inspired by Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Maldives, Nepal, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, and/or Afghanistan (myths, setting, etc.)

Fantasy that features stories and characters from a criminal underworld. Think rival syndicates, crime lords and gang leaders, thieving crews and elaborate heists, shadowy assassins, and illicit dealings. Feedback and recs welcome!

Indian inspired/set fantasy and folklore. Crowd-sourced from an ask in the Asian-inspired Fantasy quest, so check that out too, but always open to suggestions ☺️ Mostly Desi authors, though not exclusively. I have yet to read any, so join me as I work my way through these (and thanks to everyone who suggested them 🤍)

All genres of Fantasy written by South Asian authors specifically.
