Historical fiction books with queer characters

Books that feels like a DND campaign - heists, quests, and adventures galore. These books have a big cast of misfit characters and plenty of action

I got my swim trunks & my flippy floppies 🩳🩴

I was listening to the lonely island and the next thing you know, this list happened.

this list contains a variety of books that take place on a variety of boats, ships and vessels

as always, taking any and all suggestions

What can I say? I love bones 🤷‍♀️💀 and def open to suggestions, any genre!

Requirements:

1. The Mc(s) is a tricksters or unreliable narrator who spends most of the book lying to, bluffing or otherwise misleading others or themselves.

2. They would continue lying even if they didn’t have to either they can’t help it or enjoy the game too much.

3. This causes situations that get unpredictable, chaotic or even completely ridiculous as the characters dodge or face consequences for their actions.

Books on my TBR with LGBTQIA+ characters or themes.

novels inspired by the Medieval period (though there are a few that are more Renaissance era)

A collection of litRPG books, or simply books that could be a side quest (or whole campaign) in DnD and other RPGs!

recently gotten really obsessed with heists/heist movies (if anyone can find anything that scratches the same itch “The Sting” does I would be forever grateful) and I’m trying to collect books with similar feels/themes. very very open to suggestions.

SFF where religion is a major part of the character work, world building, and/or a main driver of the plot.

Books with skeletons on the cover.

Fiction that is set in medieval or medieval-esque settings, crossing genre boundaries.

Books with priests and other related clergy members! I'm trying to spotlight characters where their belief is explored in interesting ways (sexuality, culture, complicated relationships with faith). If you've got suggestions (especially for queer characters) I'd love to hear them!

Not only is April 1st a Fool's Day, it's also Reading is Funny day, so we put together a list of our favorite queer stories that made us laugh! (This list is presented by Duck Prints Press, the indie publisher focused on publishing queer art and stories by queer creators! A group of us collaborate to make these recommendations.)

There's nothing quite like a great audiobook recording. Here are some of our favorites! (This is a list made by the rec list contributors at Duck Prints Press)
