I read mostly fantasy and horror and i’d love to see a setting inspired by Pre-Columbian myths. by carrie-satan Related: Recs for a memoir/non-fiction account about living with a genetic disease/disorder and whether or not to have kids because of it Soviet sci-fi books Disturbing book recs Suggest some books that lit a spark inside you, getting your mind whirring with thoughts or creative ideas (for writing or otherwise) suggest books for my christmas list!
onceuponalilykiss on November 30, 2023 1:04 am Rebecca Roanhorse’s *Black Sun* might work for you then! Less direct is Arkady Martine’s *A Memory Called Empire* which is far-future sci-fi, but the main civilization in the story is based on Aztec stuff.
Greatgreenbird on November 30, 2023 12:31 pm *Black Sun* and *Fevered Star* by Rebecca Roanhorse – books 1 and 2 of a trilogy There’s also plenty of pre-Columbian influence on the Craft Sequence books by Max Gladstone – the first series starts with *Three Parts Dead* There’s also the Blood and Obsidian trilogy by Aliette de Bodard, which start with *Servant of the Underworld* You might also want to check out Silvia Moreno Garcia – *Certain Dark Things* or *Gods of Jade and Shadow*, for example
