Hi there!
We’re a small group of queer creators promoting the first issue of our indie LGBT+ comic series called Found in the Forgotten!! FITF is a **mature sapphic (LGBT+ rep heavy) romance set in a grimdark fantasy world.**
**Blurb:** Waking up with zero memory of who she once was, Theory finds herself suddenly thrown into a world where monsters lurk at every corner, and she might just be one of them. The Kingdom of Hollowcourt follows one simple rule: magic is no longer allowed. After the lands were ravaged by a war between arcane practitioners, survivors rebuilt society, practicing mundane science, technology, and invention. Though their feats are by no means mundane.
Unfortunately, Theory has already broken this rule by simply existing. Gifted with innate magic of unknown origins, she must now navigate determining her identity while remaining under the nose of the ever-watchful eyes of The System and learning who she can trust amongst a sea of snakes.
**Themes:** Hot monster milfs (because of course), ladies loving ladies, horror, gothic victorian vibes, medieval swords and sorcery, dark humor, political intrigue, etc.
If that got your interest, please check us out on our Kickstarter campaign page! Pledge or share the news so that we can bring this passion project to life <3

All that out of the way, we were wondering if there are other books that fit this sort of vibe? Carmilla, but with an actual romance and not just a vague predator who’s evil. Why do you think these kinds of books are so few? It seems there are more (genuinely) gay YA books written for modern times than anything in horror or dark fantasy.
