Samantha Shannon Yes, there are!
Romison why do you need have this in a book? you would not read it without it or what? :)
Nirkatze Queernormative universe with several main and side characters who are LGB, though I didn't notice any different gender identities than binary.

However, there wasn't much separation of gender roles in society either, with the exception of childbirth and fashion--and I suppose at the Priory--but it seemed like any profession, inheritance or title, etc, was open for any person regardless of gender.

Prejudice in the book is mostly based on social class and birth rank.
Arthur Mitchell That's swell! Even correct...uh..what about cowpokes? any?
Nico was wondering this too:) are you able to tell me if the main character is gay?
Emma Yes, there are a few
Andre How about the dragons? Are any of them LGBTQ? :-)
Fantastic book BTW, just finished it.
