Recs if you like A Forgery of Fate...

Standalone fantasy books that won't make you invest your life in a dozen installments

Fantasy novels where magic systems involve some sort of practiced craft (painting, baking, bookbinding, and beyond)

I'm sure some of these are already on your TBR, so might as well add some more! Let me know if I am missing any of your favorites!

this is for aesthetics only

Books in this list are in at least two quests. Thus helping to earn more badges. Books will span different genres. Once I scan through all the quests, I plan to further organize the list. I am thinking of creating a seperate list and moving the books with three or more quests to the new list and keeping the two badge books in this list. Are there other ways you would organize a list this big?

I know there are a couple other dragon lists out there, but a lot of them were missing some of my favourites, so I'm just making my own!

These books the dragons will play a significant role in the plot, even if the focus of the book isn't dragons themselves (like the Hobbit).

For books in a series, I'll only be adding the first one.

Feel free to drop suggestions! I'm trying to include all the dragon books I can.

Perfect for fantasy lovers with not enough hours in the day!

Feel free to mention any I missed in the comments 😊

Eclectic choices of stories to forget life sucks.

Nothing better than a quick standalone romance between something long and serious 😏 In other words, if you’re already committed to six series but still need more excitement in your life 🤭

If you simply prefer to spend every night with another magical being that’s perfectly fine too 🤭💖

Romantasy standalones from YA to Dark Romance

Dragons everywhere. From tiny, mischievous hatchlings to wise, ancient sky-soarers, these books are packed with scales, sparks, and heart. Expect warmth, wonder, and at least a little fire.
