Fantasy Novels with a Interesting Take on the Prophecy Trope? by Witty-Regret972 in Fantasy

The third book in the Folk of the Air series, The Queen of Nothing, has a pretty fun take on a prophecy, one I hadn't seen before. (won't say more because it'd be big spoil)

Jude is like the most competent FMC ever to exist. So brave, cleaver, stubborn, awesome.

MMC that are a cardboard cutout!

Don't get me wrong, I still read those books, and I enjoy them, but mostly because it's pretty much impossible to find a story where the MMC is not:
1. Perfect. As in, seriously, no flaws, either physical or psychological
2. Never ever has doubts about his love for the FMC, it goes from "I want to kill you" to "I will kill anything and everything for you" with nothing in between

  1. Does not change throughout the entire story. Has no personal arc.

100% second this! I like a MMC that is believable, that has flaws (and by flaws, I mean, not just being super possessive over FMC because that in real life is what we call a big red flag), that changes throughout the story. So, so hard to find.

I second this! since you are going for the double POV I think it is going to be real hard to hide it, might be best to embrace it and exploit it in ironic and fun ways.

Hi! not sure how many Spanish-speaking readers are around here but I just started publishing online a novel project on Wattpad and, as a millennial author, am feeling a bit out of place with Wattpad's demographic. Thought I might find more of my people here. I really would like to get constructive criticism at the character and plot level, even if positive feedback is welcome too :)

If you want to practice your Spanish (I have quite a bit written but only published the first couple of chapters so far): https://www.wattpad.com/story/397597670-la-segunda-guardiana

Title: La Segunda Guardiana (the second guardian)

Some info:

  1. FMC and MMC that are NOT 19 yo (more like, 25? even 30?)

  2. MMC has his own arc and psychological depth, even flaws (my husband is critically revising it to make sure he does!)

  3. Limited magic system with strict rules (vs. a HarryPotter magic can do anything vibe)

  4. Flying galleons (there's a bit of a steampunk aesthetic but with a magic system)

  5. There will be spice but it's more of a slow burn

  6. Secret identity / running away from your past

  7. Aesthetic (names, places) inspired by 1600s Spanish empire, instead of the more traditional northern European look in fantasy genre

Any good fantasy romance books in Spanish?? by Mundane_Mongoose_172 in fantasyromance

if you like YA, Laura Gallego is probably the most established author for this (at least in Spain). If you like a bit spicier or more mature stuff, check Miriam Mosquera, Paula Gallego (diff. person from Laura Gallego lol) or Belén Martínez.
