Listen Later

It's no wonder that romantasy has become one of the fastest growing book genres among readers. These books beautifully blend intense romantic relationships with high stakes magical worlds. Unlike traditional fantasy novels, romantasy plotlines completely fall apart when you remove the romance. Many readers find the emotional experience involved in romantasy stories to be a welcome addition to the fantasy worlds they long to escape to. In today's episode, Stephanie chats with Briana, Shan, and Cate about their experience with this burgeoning genre. They'll discuss powerful female protagonists, engaging tropes, creative world-building, and the varying spice levels found in the books they've brought to the table. If you love traditional fantasy and/or romance novels, consider giving this genre a try. Romantasy holds the potential to offer the best of both worlds!
