looking for some reccies
>fantasy but with a female protag that isn't contemporary girlboss shit? obviously fantasy as a genre will involve a hero and whatnot, the protagonist is or will be more competent and accomplished than her peers eventually, but there's a huge difference between that and like Princess Peach in the Mario movie who just exists to girlboss and has no character development beyond that
>urban fantasy that's more like low-fantasy urban fantasy? more esoteric/occult shit, rich dudes and mobsters dealing with magic and forces beyond their comprehension. i dislike how this genre seems to always involve fairies and/or vampires and/or vampire fairies because it's always "courts" and the same thing i've seen in other urban fantasy novels. Dresden Files got way too hung up on this and i lost interest in it. i don't dislike vampires necessarily, it's just an over usage in this genre that i'm tired of.
>nice gritty 80s/90s feeling cyberpunk? have read Neuromancer, Androids Dream of Electric Sheep - huge fan of Blade Runner. also really like the SNES Shadowrun game, was thinking of trying to find some stuff in that setting, cyberpunk and fantasy go really well together IMO
