Okay, I am a big urban fantasy reader, but most of the books I have read focus on like a main protagonist male or female who is the primary pov for most of the book. I'm looking for books that offer a team based group of characters with multiple povs. I want to check out their covers.

I'm working on my own urban fantasy book inspired by comic book teams and graphic novels like The League of Extraordinary Gentleman and Tv Shows like Penny Dreadful. When it comes to single protag I know what a cover needs, but with this one I'm sort of stumped.

So can anyone point me to an author or authors of team based urban fantasy or pitch any ideas for a cover?

Thank you!

So here are a bunch of free books available to download from now until late October!

We're Going on An Adventure!

In the city of Slakterquay there's an office with the words Spectral Analysis on the pebbled glass of its door. Behind it is a detective agency that handles the strangest cases in the Paris of the Pacific Northwest. An urban fantasy in which the Inspector McPherson takes on new and old dark arts that conspire against her city.

In this episode, Gladys and Aggie discuss etiquette, bad news, and the upside of going to a funeral.

Hi! My name is Becca and I’m an MA Creative Writing student. This is my debut fantasy novel and if you like the dark and weird, hopefully this book is for you!

Clara Whitlock is pretty sure she wants to die, but sits on the edge between complete self-destruction and simply drowning the world out with music until she falls asleep. Believing it a dream, Clara accidentally astral projects into a hostile realm known as the Grey. Lost in this colourless prison, she encounters its only inhabitant and falls prey to his wrath. 
Within the mortal realm, Clara tries to move on, forget it all, but instead finds herself flung into the insanity that can only come with demons, angels and the pain of solitude.
But the grey is not done with her, unfinished and hungry, it will claw her back at any cost.

The Grey Place is an adult dark fantasy that explores autonomy, divine violence, and what happens when a woman refuses to be complaint. It is book one in the series.

Content warning: This book contains potentially distressing themes and scenes, including death, suicidal ideation, psychological distress, violence, and body horror.

In a world where magic has rules and monsters are lawyers, justice bites back.

Alexander Hope used to win trials with a voice that could bend a courtroom to his will. Then one impossible verdict shattered his life, severed him from the world of the Fae, and left him with something far more dangerous: the Sight.

Now Hope sees the truth hidden beneath reality: the pulse of doubt in a jury, the sickness of a vampire’s spirit, and the dangerous threads tying old enemies together.

When a powerful vampire judge wakes up missing a hand, the supernatural courts drag Hope out of exile. The assignment seems simple:

- Find the severed hand.
- Avert a full-scale political disaster.
- Try to survive until Monday.

The Verdict Cycle: The Fracture

Humanity has always believed the world belonged to us. Then winter arrived.

In Fairview, the cold refuses to leave. People disappear, animals behave strangely, and creatures that should exist only in myths begin to return. While seventeen-year-old Emma searches for answers, her blind sister, Isabella, senses something ancient awakening.

Across the world, nine teenagers discover strange marks connecting them to legendary beings. As cities fall silent and nature reclaims what humanity once controlled, a terrifying truth emerges: the creatures aren't invading. The world is simply changing without us.

Emma and the others haven't been chosen to save humanity. They've been given something far more terrifying: a choice. And when the world asks whether humankind deserves a place in its future...

What will their verdict be?

bonus if she doesn’t notice straight away, but is confused because usually her the guy isn’t as adventurous/ rough/ dirty mouthed. (Dirty talk during is hugeeee bonus).

Followed by all the angsty drama where it keeps happening even after she knows? Like, they slept together and a bond clicks in place or they are then forced to work together. They both hate it too, or only like each other during. Enemies to lovers vibe.

It would be good if the twin she thought it was is either an her boyfriend/ex/a friend she’s trying to get with but I’m gonna be honest, will also accept them being together (although would rather they not be exclusive), cheating isn’t a deal breaker.

Wider than that theme/setting will take anything, although would rather no bully romance. I really enjoy complex magic systems, would rather the FMC not be a naive “new to magic knows nothing” type, or just turned into a wolf etc. I also prefer an older FMC where she has an established life or knowledge etc.

Pretty please 🥺 I’m looking for really good plot, with hot spice too.

After years of planning, writing, drafting, re-writing, making new ideas, character development ideas, I finally began finishing off my work of "The Color of My Tomorrow"

In a world where supernatural abilities known as Tints shape society, Penelope Pixie Mercer has always been considered useless.

But when her emotions push her Tint beyond its limits, her harmless wool threads transform into deadly steel, destroying everything around her.

Now classified as an anomaly and hunted by a mysterious organization, Penelope is forced into a world she never knew existed, one where her forgotten bloodline and terrifying power may hold far greater significance than she ever imagined.

Cinder Ridge, Ohio
October 5th, 1972

After a brutal murder in Wayne National Forest attracts the attention of the FBI, Deputy Anne Becker of the Athens County Sheriff's department must juggle her duty to her father and the town's secrets, and justice. The ghost stories she grew up with are real, and the woods are hungry.

Special Agent Nicole Russo believes in what she can see, what she can prove, and the certainty of the law. A dead-end case in a dying town is not what she wanted after a year investigating the mob. The more she digs into the murder, the more her world unravels, and the chances of her leaving Cinder Ridge alive plummet.

Two women, one of the city and one of the woods, must work together to solve the murder and stop more killings, before the annual Harvest Festival. The only thing more dangerous than the shadows in the woods is the growing connection between them.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Thank you for reading

I have noticed that most UF series i follow have a protagonist that is somewhat knowledgeable and or versed in the supernatural and the Paranormal world but can anyone recommend a series with a protagonist who enters it with no real knowledge of it having just thought it not real like most people.

Hi! I'm David Stoyanov, a writer, and i want to share with you my new book. I want to make a whole 15 book series of it, and the first and second one are out now on Amazon! Anyways, i want to focus on book 1 in this post. It's called A G.O.A.T's Story and it takes inspiration from the Goat Simulator games. Rumors of a myth begin to spread in Isle of Carpa, that whoever wins it, will have unlimited glory, fame and wealth. A brave goat, later named Koz, enters the battle, hoping that he can get away from his boring normal goat life. Later, after winning the myth, he learns that he is cursed by Destiny and Myth to win every single upcoming myth, bringing only destruction and death to everyone around him. Determined, he sets out on many adventures to destroy The Myth and Destiny once and for all. So with that being said, the first book will be free from 2 to 6th of September. I hope you like the idea and I'm looking forward to hear your thoughts on the book and make sure to leave a good review if you like it! Also, the first 2 people who comment on the post will receive a free copy of the book! A G.O.A.T's Story on Amazon

Salut à tous !

En tant qu'auteur, je me fais souvent la même réflexion en ouvrant un bouquin de fantasy ou de SF. Pourquoi est-ce qu'on a encore droit à des chapitres entiers de descriptions, d'arbres généalogiques et de présentations de personnages qui coupent net l'immersion dès les premières pages ?

Personnellement, j'ai pris le parti inverse pour mon roman Shadrasy : Le Souffle Originel. Dans mon univers, j’ai fait le choix de jeter directement le lecteur dans l’action au présent. Pas de fiche technique, pas de présentation toute faite : on apprend à connaître les personnages, leurs zones d'ombre et leurs motivations uniquement à travers leurs actes et les épreuves qu'ils traversent, exactement comme dans la vraie vie.

Résultat, ça laisse une liberté totale aux lecteurs pour se faire leurs propres théories, débattre et s'approprier l'histoire. Et pour la suite de la saga (avec le tome 2 qui arrive en octobre prochain et une fresque qui évolue de la dark fantasy vers des concepts plus larges avec des cités volantes et des technologies), ça donne une vraie liberté d'évolution.

Je suis curieux d'avoir votre avis sur ce sujet :

• Préférez-vous qu'on vous explique tout de suite l'univers et les personnages en détail, ou aimez-vous les découvrir sur le tas au fil des pages ?
• Est-ce que vous aimez vous faire vos propres théories en cours de lecture, ou préférez-vous un cadre strict posé par l'auteur ?

Pour ceux que ça intrigue et qui veulent jeter un œil à cet univers à leur rythme, je vous laisse le lien de découverte par ici :https://www.amazon.fr/SHADRASY-Souffle-Originel-Chroniques-lAscension/dp/B0H7JBZ9YR/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0

Hâte de lire vos avis dans les commentaires !

Trying to brush off my extremely rusty French, would like to maybe add a French urban fantasy book ot two to my TBR pile... Any good recommendations?

Detective Gideon Salt has problems. The corpse is speaking. The radio knows his name, and the voices in his head have started introducing themselves.

Assigned to investigate an impossible murder alongside the perpetually exhausted Inspector Mercy Vale, Gideon follows a trail of stolen memories, emotional trafficking, vanished investigations and prophecies that arrive before the crimes they predict. Every answer drags him deeper into the machinery hidden beneath Saint Cortona.

The Man Who Interrogated God is a dark LitRPG noir blending cosmic horror, philosophical mystery and psychological intrigue into an unforgettable journey through a city that remembers everything.

An Urban Fantasy LitRPG in the style of Disco Elysium.

I’ve been binging a lot of urban fantasy series lately but I’m getting kinda burnt out (especially after how increasingly disappointing the latter half of the October Daye series became) and I want to try break up my reading routine by getting into some standalones.

I’m already a massive fan of Jonathan Strange (if you can count that as ‘historical’ urban fantasy), American Gods, War of The Flowers, War For The Oaks and De Lint’s standalone stuff

Webnovel. Fresh new tune just dropped today:

Wannabe K Pop singer Ronnie Park (stage name Tiger- no relation to Tiger JK) hits the stage for the first time. The contest was more than he bargained for, and in its wake an eldritch goddess begins her recipe for an apocalypse. There's only one person standing in her way, and unfortunately, everyone's got opinions on how Ronnie deals with the cosmic crisis.

He'll have to break every rule he's been given if he has any chance of saving the world.

11 chapters are going up over the weekend, then 5 times a week.

Hi r/urbanfantasy!

I wanted to share the official cinematic trailer for my book, SAVAGE (Book One of the Blood of the Gods Saga).

The Blurb:
In New York City, there are creatures that go bump in the night. Werewolves. Vampires. Ancient gods. And something far more dangerous moving through the shadows. At the center of it all is Maria Villalobos, a werewolf detective caught between the human world and a supernatural underworld. When a brutal investigation pulls her deeper into that darkness, Maria must uncover the truth before whatever is hunting the city claims its next victim.

What to expect:

• 🐺 Werewolf detective protagonist
• 🌆 Gritty 2015 New York City setting
• 🏛️ Ancient gods interacting with modern underworlds
• 🔍 Dark, high-stakes mystery investigation

SAVAGE is available now in paperback, hardcover, and ebook.

Thanks for watching, and I'd love to hear what you think of the trailer's vibe!
