Nin (luxera) Hey,

as the title suggests I'm looking for unknown or at least not well known fantasy books that are enjoyable to read.
I want to promote/sell books that are less known in the book shop I work in, so I need suggestions of books or ways to find upcoming books that are not sold by common publishers.
Thank you :)

Kristi Cramer (kristicramer) | 4 comments My novel To Make a King is a three part YA Fantasy. It is available as a gorgeous 388 page paperback. (It was originally released as a trilogy but they have been combined into one action-packed fantasy adventure.)

Ed Ireland (edireland) | 1 comments Hi Lux. My name is Ed and I've been writing for a while now. I have a trilogy in the fantasy genre called "The Trials of the Clans". The first book in the series is Fire At Dawn.
I also have a continuing series called "The Journals of the Huntress" and the first book in that series is The Last Ranger of Sarn: The Journals of the Huntress ~ Book One.
I would be more than happy to provide a PDF for you or if you have Kindle Unlimited, they're free. I'd also be more than happy to answer any questions you might have. Thanks for your time. :-)

Alex Norton (alexnorton) | 4 comments I think a very good way to discover lesser-known fantasy would be to cruise around book blogging sites. I'm working the other side of this, submitting my book to them for review, but they'd be great for your intended goal as well. You'd be able to see what they've read and read their reviews before deciding what to take a chance on. There's an organized list of book bloggers at theindieview.com.

Like everyone else here, I have a fantasy book. I'm told it's enjoyable to read (that was my only goal in writing it).
Witchbone Book One ~ The Goblin's Winter: a paranormal fairy tale
Good luck and have fun,
~Alex

Ian Hammer (goodreadscomleebell) | 8 comments Sup Luxera? My two ebooks fit into several genres and sub-genres including, at your request, Fantasy. Also Action/adventure and Sword and Sorcery. My second ebook ("The Weeper") is a bit of a departure as it dips seriously into the Horror genre as well.
I accepted the fact that I needed to write 'outside the box' and include a tad bit of my random sense of humor in my first ebook, "There Lived Giants," by Ian Pike Hammer, (my pen name), when advised by my writing coach, who insisted I include it. Good advice, it turns out.
Though it's hard to envision a young, cold-hearted barbarian with a sense of humor, it actually fits well in the storyline and makes for a very enjoyable read. (Don't worry- I didn't over do it!)
"Giants..." is a full-length novel following the quest of "Monger", as he searches "Early Earth" for his little sister Binny, kidnapped three previously by slave traders from the south.

The books include several hand-drawn maps of Early Earth (painstakingly long and labor intensive, but a blast to do!) and each has the "look inside" feature which allows the reader to get a good peek at the contents.

Authors note: Just a quick heads up- The first part of the first chapter of "There Lived Giants" is a little slow, as I introduce Eovaldar, the colorful, intelligent and loveable narrator of the story. I urge you to stay with it, as the action picks up rapidly after that.
It's a "good read" and you will enjoy each and every one of the characters, which are developed well, as is the dialogue. Also, there's a lengthy synopsis on my "Ian Pike Hammer" page on Facebook= @IanPikeHammer.

The ebooks are both available on Amazon.com under the pen name "Ian Pike Hammer." I hope you enjoy them Luxera!

My book is Sineria: The Great Kingdom, the first in what I hope to be a great fantasy adventure. With a young protagonist, intimidating antagonist, knights, dragons and other beasts, this entry to a fantastic world of mythical wonders is sure to delight!

Hey, Luxera. I realize this is an old thread, but it popped back up with replies, so I thought I'd chime in. My book is the Secret Key of Pythagorum, a magical fantasy adventure. You can see descriptions and reviews on Amazon https://tinyurl.com/yb5yjjze. It can be ordered through Ingram. Thanks for taking a look!
