Fantasy books with queer rep

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

Fiction and non-fiction in which a main character, prominent supporting character, or narrator is canonically/confirmed to be on the asexual (ace) spectrum.

📓Canon: Confirmed by either the text or original creator. (Subtextual/implied and circumstantial characters can be found on my other ace list)

❕Disclaimer: I have not read all these books. Please feel free to correct me in the comments if I have made a mistake in my research. Or if you have any new titles to recommend.

Lately I’ve been craving that old school fantasy, but much more diverse than what you’d generally think of when you think of old school fantasy. So this list will be queer epic/high fantasy full of high stakes adventure and perhaps magic, but specifically that has the VIBES. vibes are essential.

As a note I haven’t read all of these books yet but I am making my way through them, and if any of them are not the match I think they are I’ll remove them (or feel free to comment to let me know!)

If we are going to do Qwordy's the Hardest Reading Challenge You'll Ever Do 3.0 - we should probably get some Pagebound badges along the way! I'm specifically going to be adding books from Quests and readalongs that I think matches at least one of these cover prompts: craft, food, motion, biomes/landscapes, animals, weather.

Hii, everyone ♡ I am a very big fan of the booktuber @caricanread so I thought I would make a list of all the books she has read this year! ✰

All genres of Fantasy written by South Asian authors specifically.

A list of all the books featured as monthly picks for the Illumicrate Sub. ◽️ Not Including sequels or special editions outside of the monthly sub.◽️ I will include new books about a month after release to avoid spoilers.

Featuring books from different mythologies, some were invented by the authors and some are inspired by mythologies around the world! Some are fiction some non fiction! I haven’t read all, so if some are misplaced, you can say it! Also, I’m open for recommendations! This list also includes legends!

Sff with aromantic characters

"By the breath of Set, what sorcery is this?! These scribes of the far north and the distant west have imagined worlds that almost - almost - match the splendor of my own court. They speak of dragons? I have hunted lions in the heat of the Retjenu! They speak of rings of power? I wear the crown of the Two Lands, which binds the world from the Delta to the cataracts of Kush! ​Still... there is a certain charm to these 'high fantasies' that I can not deny."

Sometimes reading a three part story across three books is rewarding. This is for books that fully commit to telling one story across three books, not books that started as 3 then bloated to more, or were originally a duology and then the author kept writing.

Fantasy inspired by history or mythology set in a secondary world (more loosely inspired historical fantasy)
