Sword and Sorcery

Sword and sorcery (S&S) is a fantasy subgenre generally characterized by swashbuckling heroes engaged in exciting and violent conflicts. An element of romance is often present, as is an element of magic and the supernatural. Unlike works of high fantasy, the tales, though dramatic, focus mainly on personal battles rather than world-endangering matters.

And yet, as their duel began, she watched his dark eyes watch her, and she knew him. As she anticipated the steps his nimble feet would make before they moved, she knew him. As she dodged and evaded his skillful attacks, she knew him.
Molly Collier, The Paragon
