WHAT IS COZY FANTASY?

Posted on August 24, 2023August 24, 2023 by Isaac

Cozy fantasy has been launched into unexpected popularity recently, arguably
first by the success of the TikTok viral Legends & Lattes by Travis Baldree, and
a following spate of popular titles (such as The House in the Cerulean Sea, A
Coup of Tea, Emily Wilde’s Encyclopedia of Faeries, That Time I Got Drunk &
Saved … Continue reading What is cozy fantasy? →

A GUIDE TO THE NOBLE TITLES OF MEDIEVAL EUROPE FOR WRITERS

Posted on August 5, 2023August 5, 2023 by Isaac

The nobility of medieval Europe is often confusing, especially when trying to
decipher a thousand years of change and competing systems that sometimes changed
rapidly and in other places had contradictory rules depending on who you were.
It can be a headache to decipher and sometimes as a writer I just want a simple
answer. … Continue reading A guide to the noble titles of medieval Europe for

A GUIDE TO NOBILITY, FOR FANTASY WRITERS

Posted on August 5, 2023August 5, 2023 by Isaac

High fantasy tends to feature a lot of nobles. More often than not, authors pull
inspiration from the feudal and courtly nobility of medieval Europe. However,
honestly, it can be confusing to research with so many conflicting traditions,
not to mention how they changed over time too. As a result, fantasy sometimes
leans on not … Continue reading A guide to nobility, for fantasy writers →

WHERE DID GNOLLS COME FROM?

Posted on July 6, 2023July 6, 2023 by Isaac

Gnolls are a species of hyena-like humanoids, sometimes called “beastmen” or
“beastkin”, common as a stock species in fantasy. I have a soft spot for these
guys - hyenas are cool and I feel like they’re often underutilized. Portrayals
tend towards making them one note evil. I have problems with any portrayal of a
whole … Continue reading Where did Gnolls come from? →

WHAT IS GASLAMP FANTASY?

Posted on February 28, 2023February 28, 2023 by Isaac

Gaslamp fantasy is a subgenre of fantasy that combines elements of Gothic
horror, urban fantasy and historical fiction. Technically, that is true, but it
doesn't paint a useful picture of what gaslamp fantasy is. To be more specific,
Gaslamp books usually take place in settings inspired by the Victorian and
Edwardian period, especially the United … Continue reading What is gaslamp

ALTERNATIVE WORDS FOR WAND

Posted on January 18, 2023January 18, 2023 by Isaac

Fantasy has a fascinating array of alternative words for wand. Interestingly,
many of the words are used in different way to their dictionary definitions and
I've found it hard to find much information. So I put together my own list of
definitions I've learned from years of reading fantasy and mythology. There
aren't as many … Continue reading Alternative Words for Wand →

WHAT ARE CROSSROADS DEMONS?

Posted on October 12, 2022October 12, 2022 by Isaac

In pop culture, the concept of a crossroads demon has sprung up in recent years,
perhaps particularly inspired by Supernatural, where they are explicitly named
as a special type of demon. The concept has always fascinated me, so I wanted to
delve into answering the question “what are crossroads demons?” and explore the
history of … Continue reading What are crossroads demons? →

FAIRY VERSUS FAERIE, AND OTHER NAMES FOR THE FAE

Posted on September 8, 2022September 14, 2022 by Isaac

Fairies have a lot of names and there a lot of ways just to spell the word. When
it comes down to Fairy versus Faerie, what is the difference? Fairy comes
ultimately from the Latin fata, “the fates” - the group of Roman goddesses who
decided the fate of mortals. The Roman goddesses multiplied in … Continue

REVIEW: MORTAL SKIN & FORGOTTEN VOWS BY LILY MAYNE

Posted on June 10, 2022September 11, 2022 by Isaac

I was kindly given an ARC copy of Forgotten Vows by Lily Mayne, book 2 of her
Folk series. Forgotten Vows directly follows Mortal Skin, and continues where
last books cliffhanger left off. These are an MM romance series focusing on
Faeries. A single book review seemed like it'd just be confusing - so I …
