Secondary World Urban Fantasy (18 books)

Listopia > Secondary World Urban Fantasy

The popular view of Urban Fantasy is that it takes place in “our world” aka the primary world. And Secondary World Urban Fantasy is an unfortunately underrepresented permutation of UF.

This list is for fantasy books* that are set in constructed worlds similar to modern times. A convenient place for fans of this niche to find books. The oldest cutoff for “modern” will be 1900s+ analogs.

*The term “Books” is inclusive of prose novels, novellas,short stories, novelettes and comics(US comics, European comics, Japanese comics, webcomics with collected editions etc)
