Fantasy Metropolises (22 books)

Listopia > Fantasy Metropolises

Fantasy books where a significant portion of the plot is spent in a large, fictional city. A city large enough to have districts, for example, where people who live there might have never met each other, because there's thousands of people.

Real cities in magical settings (e.g. London with fairies, urban fantasy) don't belong here, only fictional cities. Towns and villages are too small.
