hard fantasy novels

One popular hard fantasy novel is 'The Lord of the Rings' by J.R.R. Tolkien. It features a richly detailed world with complex magic systems, different races like hobbits, elves, and dwarves, and an epic battle between good and evil. Another is 'A Song of Ice and Fire' by George R.R. Martin. It has a vast and gritty world, intricate political intrigue, and morally ambiguous characters. Also, 'The Wheel of Time' by Robert Jordan is a great example. It has a detailed magic system based on the One Power and a large cast of characters in a sprawling world.

Well, they often have highly detailed world - building. For example, in novels like 'The Lord of the Rings', the author J.R.R. Tolkien created an entire Middle - earth with different races, languages, and cultures. Fantasy hard core novels also usually have complex characters with deep backstories. They may be heroes with flaws or villains with some redeeming qualities. Another characteristic is the presence of a complex magic system. In 'The Wheel of Time' series by Robert Jordan, there is a very intricate magic system that involves different types of magic users and how they access and use their power.

Start with the classics. As I mentioned before, 'The Lord of the Rings' is a great starting point. It's well - known and has influenced a lot of other hard fantasy works. Its world - building and characters are very accessible. Another way is to follow recommendations from friends who are into hard fantasy. They can suggest books that they think you'll like based on your interests.

The stream-of-consciousness fantasy novel was a literary form that used the stream-of-consciousness technique to express the fictional world. It usually had a unique narrative style and language usage. Although stream-of-consciousness fantasy novels had a certain influence and audience in the literary world, their popularity often depended on many factors such as the attractiveness of the story, the level of writing skills, the compatibility of the reader's cultural background, and so on. The difficulty of creating a stream-of-consciousness fantasy novel required the author to have a high level of literary attainment and creative skills, as well as a strong imagination and creativity. In addition, because it uses the narrative method of the stream of consciousness, the author needs to have a certain understanding of the characteristics and rules of the stream of consciousness in order to better play its advantages. Although stream-of-consciousness fantasy novels had a unique charm, it was not easy to make them popular. In the competitive literary market, other stream-of-consciousness fantasy novels needed to constantly come up with new ideas to maintain their uniqueness and appeal.

Well, one aspect is a complex and detailed magic system. It has strict rules and limitations, not just some random magic. Another aspect could be a highly structured and unique world - building, with its own geography, cultures, and histories. Also, hard fantasy often features morally grey characters, not just simple good or bad guys.

It can be really challenging. You need to come up with unique worlds, complex characters, and an engaging plot.

Turning a page in the book of troubled times, it would rain for decades in the Jianghu. Suddenly looking back, the world has been split into pieces. 2.<<Spirit Realm Walker>>: From ancient times to the present, it is rumored that there is a Spirit Realm in the world. Regarding the Spirit Realm, there were many different opinions among the famous people of the past dynasties. "From Qi to Tang, the mountains are desolate and the spirit realm is lonely. Few people visit." "Spirit Realm is hard to come by, but Ghost Craftsmen are hard to come by." 3.<<The Tang's Table>> The people of the world and the affairs of the world are just the dishes on the table of the Tang people. Although the original ingredients had the original flavor of food, Yun Chu still believed that the most delicious food still needed to be divided, cooked, and handled. The food that was finally served on the table was the food that most suited the stomach of the Tang people. Steaming, braising, stir-frying, stewing... There were many cooking methods in the kitchen. Whether it was Goguryeo, the Turks, Tubo, Tuyuhun, Xue Yantuo, Tiele…or even whales, tigers, sharks, and hungry wolves, the Great Tang was a furnace that could cook them all into peerless delicacies… In addition to Li Zhi, Wu Wei, Zhangsun Wuji, Chu Suiliang, Li Ji, Cheng Yaojin, and other peerless seasonings, there would always be one thing that you would never forget, regardless of color, fragrance, or taste.

She was ready to enjoy an unprecedented feast to satisfy her hungry stomach. 4."King of Familiars": In this brand new era of familiars, who can become the well-deserved king of familiars? 5: Fairy, Please Listen to My Explanation: Save Stream: It's recommended. The writing style is not bad. [Key words: Time travel, Xianxia/Wuxia genre, no obvious cheat, villain faction characters] [Description: The main character has transmigrated to the son of the villain boss in the game world. The main character knows the complete plot and the location of most of the treasures.] [Strengths: Excellent writing, like a god opening a side account.] Even though the plot was similar to the rise of a weak chicken, the details were handled well and did not make people feel uncomfortable. Each conflict was not abrupt. What some people might not like was that the updates were so slow that it made people feel like the author was fishing for time to write a chapter. The protagonist was not the Virgin Mary, so there was no inexplicable kindness. [PS: A detailed evaluation after 100 chapters.] Although this book doesn't share any of the same elements as this book, it's good enough for me to recommend it (°3°) 2022/11/19 National Forensic Medicine: National Forensic Medicine is an unforgettable forensic novel. The author, Bird Pig, used his unique style to combine professional knowledge with humorous language, making people feel interesting while understanding. The protagonist of the story was a forensic doctor who did not do his job properly. Not only did he perform well in fingerprint and footprint investigations, but he also constantly developed new business abilities, which made people marvel at his growth. At the same time, the author's description of the other characters was also very outstanding, making people feel their value and dignity. The entire story was compact and fascinating, making it difficult to put it down. Although the author's update was slightly delayed, it did not affect the excitement of the story. Overall, National Forensics was a good book that was worth recommending. The readers should not miss it. 7."Wait, Heroine" Author: Guan Guan (Lv.5) Tagged: Fantasy, Oriental Fantasy connecting to Total Word Count:135.04w True number of fans: 16.410,000 Total Collection:41.27w Total recommendation:49.64w [Alliance Leader Count:57] First Order:20033 "Heroine, wait a moment. Do you know who I am?" "I know. He's the empress's favorite minister, the lover of the rebel leader, and the young master of a famous sect in the pugilistic world. You're the one I'm going to cut!" 8."Mantang Colorful": 8.5. It's a new book by the author of the Song Dynasty. Actually, it's not new anymore. I've saved it for a long time. Recently, I really didn't have any books to read, so I started killing it. Yes, yes, it's very good. I just finished reading, and I haven't read any books recently. I'm still raising squid books, so I'll open them if I have to! 9."Hidden Dead Corner": A book that has grown up. He has chased after all the books starting from the Mastery of Kendo. Of course, most of the time, he can't pick them up after putting them down. Every book of his has a situation where his combat strength will collapse due to the setting. However, he can still read them from the early to the middle stages. He can feel good and torture them when he wants to. There isn't much sloppiness, which has led to many imitators. 10."Final Divine Duty":"Final Divine Duty" was a masterpiece of sci-fi ancient martial arts mecha. The author used a modern and fantasy background to create a world full of imagination. The story was compact and the writing was smooth, making people unable to stop. The main character was decisive and didn't act like a saint, leaving a deep impression on everyone. Although the missing persons plot in the story was a little toxic, overall, the book was very exciting and made people unable to stop. The only regret was that there were not many chapters, which made him feel like he had not finished. However, this book was indeed a work worthy of recommendation. It brought many surprises and fun to the readers. 11."Beyond Time":"Beyond Time" is a refreshing Xianxia novel. Compared to Er Gen's previous works, this novel was even heavier and left a deep impression. The characters in the story were vividly portrayed, and the wording and artistic conception of the article were also very beautiful. In particular, the combination with the previous works made this work even grander and become an unforgettable work of Xianxia. I recommend it to all readers who like Xianxia novels. "This Game Is Too Real": A New Book by the Academic Genius Author It was similar to the writing style of a top student. The author was very good at writing novels with a little professional knowledge and a faint pretentious aura. Demining: The author's emotional scenes are hard to handle. At present, I can't tell which one is the female lead, but when it comes to emotional scenes, it's really awkward. Just endure it or skip it. [What to Watch: The protagonist traveled to 200 years after the end of the nuclear war and rebuilt the ruins with the players who worked. This setting itself is very interesting.] It was obvious that the structure was very large. He wanted to describe a more complete wasteland world. The author's ability to control things had also improved compared to the previous book. The protagonist had self-proclaimed himself as a planner, tricking the players into working for him, pretending to release an update announcement and strategy, first summoning a few players for closed beta, and then slowly spreading it step by step. Let's see if it will collapse in the later stages. If it doesn't, we'll be able to become gods. [Rating: 4 stars] Red Heart Sky Patrol: Classic Xianxia I have a pure heart to survey the heavens! Book friends recommended. Ring of Fate: Secrets (2) Finally! "The Great Ming State Preceptor":"The Great Ming State Preceptor" was an amazing work. The author used modern theories to change the world of transmigrators as the background and told an impressive story. The author's writing style was excellent. The unique charm between the lines was easily accepted by the readers. Every lesson was refreshing. Whether it was the protagonist's lecture or Zhu Di's eavesdropping, it was a deep impression. Especially when the main character was giving a lecture in prison, the hair-raising piercing feeling was even more shocking. This book was not only outstanding among historical works, but it was also a thought-provoking work. The author's idea was really amazing. It made people realize how powerful the power of thought was. This book was not only a historical novel, but also a work that made people think. Whether it was the main character's lecture or Zhu Di's eavesdropping, it was all amazing. This was an unforgettable work. It was a good book to read for both history lovers and those who were thinking about the meaning of life. 16:"Ascending on a Better Day":"My Disciples Want to Kill Me to Vent Their Anger" "This year, my blessings have arrived." "The rouge on her lips is delicious. I want to eat it again." A xianxia drama with a unique meaning. It's about how I've been trapped for 30,000 years and how to get out of my predicament in this life! 17:"Who's in Love After Rebirth?": They're all reborn and especially talk about love. Now, a bunch of novels that were created after the rebirth of the third year of high school appeared in the urban genre. Compared to the system genre, the performance of the male protagonist in this novel was more interesting and unrestrained after using the memories and knowledge of the future. After all, it was a little too much to rely on the system to help him enjoy the novel after rebirth.🙅The plot of hooking up with a rich woman was a little unrealistic, but there was no other way. Daifeng was too cute and could not help but want to keep watching.

The protagonist seemed to be emotional and heartless, devoted to the Dao but also listening to music. This contradictory character made the story even more fascinating. Even though the early stage of Great Liang's development was pushed out to become a Martial Immortal, the author's updates could reach ten thousand words per day, showing the author's diligence and hard work. In the story, Fang Xi transmigrated to another world and displayed her spirit of striking with a heavy fist. Moreover, she seamlessly connected the two worlds and developed steadily, which was amazing. The author's writing style was sharp and unrestrained, bringing a new reading experience to the readers. It was reasonable to say that laws were important in troubled times. The protagonist could also become a big shot in the cultivation world, which made people look forward to the development of the story in the future. In short,'Cultivating Immortals in the Demonic Martial World' was a fascinating novel that was worth reading. "Who told him to cultivate!" <Book Status> 80,000 recommendation votes, 300,000 favorites, in progress <Book Type> Classic Xianxia [Tagging] Easy, big brain hole, funny, immortal cultivation, the world of great competition [Description] Everyone said,"Lu Yang has spread the style of Dao Seeking Sect to the entire cultivation world by himself, but Lu Yang himself doesn't think so. The style of cultivation is crooked." [What to Watch] Funny, we're serious/Who asked him to cultivate? <Remarks> This is a hilarious Xianxia novel. The author has a big imagination and a clear idea. Continuing the style of the previous book,"Only the Great Vehicle Stage Has a Counterattack System", he walked the path of fun. Seeing the beginning, he could guess the ending, but he couldn't guess the process. The main thing was to surprise. It is recommended to eat with the comments of the book friends. The effect is excellent. Dao Seeking (Child) Sect was incompatible with the other four immortal sects. Dao Seeking Sect had a different style from the cultivation world since its establishment. Because of his strange style (mental illness), even the demonic path could not plant spies. Anything that happened in Dao Seeking Sect was not surprising, and the reason was unexpected. The main character, Lu Yang, surpassed his master and entered Dao Seeking Sect with the first place in the assessment. After that, he became a spy in the Immortal Cult and was praised by the Immortal Cult Master as a natural demon. Apart from his swordsmanship, which was probably the effect of the sword spirit, Lu Yang's other spells were different from others. For example, he could learn Spatial Bending and Spatial Bending and comprehend spatial spells. The Wolong was Lu Yang, and the Phoenix was Meng Jingzhou. If the two of them worked together, even the cultivation world would not be able to withstand it. The more I look at it, the more I feel that this cultivation world seems to be very strange from the beginning! I actually think what Lu Yang said makes sense. It's probably just an illusion. The plot was exciting, the setting was interesting, the writing style was excellent, and the style was light and funny. Sometimes, he would use a news-style narrative. His intelligence was on the line, and the characters 'words and deeds matched the character's character. The main character and the supporting characters had strange thoughts, and few characters had normal thoughts and were honest people. [Rating] 9 A similar book,"Only the Great Vehicle Stage Has a Counterattack System", strongly recommended. You can read these novels on Qidian Chinese Network.

One great fantasy hard core novel is 'The Name of the Wind' by Patrick Rothfuss. It has a richly detailed fantasy world, complex characters, and an engaging plot that keeps you hooked from start to finish.
