In the book world, when you see this tag or category associated with a book title, it typically means you can expect an entire epic world including beings, creatures, and a magic system that are make-believe and not real and never will be. I like that one! That definitely resonates with my fantasy reading, loving soul! Even the Urban Dictionary describes it as “a strong addiction usually with something that is not real and probably will never be.” HA. Synonyms include reverie, mirage, and daydream. says “fantasy” is “dreams, imagination, and make-believe”.
The Oxford Dictionary defines “ fantasy” as “the activity of imagining things, especially things that are impossible or improbable”. Sometimes we need fantasy to survive the reality Fantasy in literature is anything that is not reminiscent of the real world as we humans know it (which inherently screams ME ME ME all day long). Other times, it’s fully otherworldly or even off-world. There’s usually a bad guy and someone you’re rooting for.
No matter what other genres I may enjoy, I enjoy them even more so when they overlap with fantasy.įor me, fantasy simply means a story set in a made-up world that’s full of magic, mythical beings, and supernatural experiences typically with heroes and heroines and sidekicks alike who are fraught with trials and tribulations as they adventure through a fictional enchanting tale. Especially with all the reading and new books I’ve got lined up! In 2020, I found myself continuously reaching for alllll the fantasy books, please. But the two are playing with magic that is more dangerous than they know, and there is another, more powerful enemy waiting for them both in the shadows.It’s 2021 and I’m so excited for the new year! I’m feeling refreshed and motivated and ready to get things done. Now on opposite sides of the conflict, each sister will do whatever it takes to save the other. With Dani lost to the dragons, Eden turns to mysterious and alluring sorcerers to help save her sister. As she gets to know Nox, she realizes that everything she thought she knew about dragons is wrong. Until Dani comes face-to-face with one and forges a rare and magical bond with him.
Yet they both agree on one thing: it's kill or be killed where dragons are concerned. For Dani, dragon slaying takes a back seat to living a normal high school life in their Tennessee town, while Eden prioritizes training above everything else. Raised to be fierce dragon slayers, two sisters end up on opposite sides of the impending war when one sister forms an unlikely, magical bond with a dragon in this standalone YA contemporary fantasy that Kirkus calls "an exciting, inclusive fantasy." The perfect read for fans of Slayer and Sorcery of Thorns.ĭani and Eden Rivera were both born to kill dragons, but the sisters couldn't be more different.
