Recs if you like Illusions of Fire...

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!

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.

My favourite books or from my TBR by BIPOC authors in a range of different genres (though I primarily read fantasy and romance) (only first book for a series added, unless not directly linked)

Ancestral curses, strange bloodlines, magical lineage, family secrets, and more! There's something about these families...

Retellings and reimaginings of stories and influences from various mythos and pantheons (only putting the first book in each series)
