\"\"<\/a>The 1st of the month (US time) is my regular guest post day on the Supernatural Underground<\/a>\u2014and last month you’ll recall I celebrated release of the mass market edition of The Gathering Of The Lost<\/em><\/strong> in the UK with a post on its particular style of epic: High Romantic Fantasy<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This month I continue the romantic aspect of that theme with a post that covers intercedents, masks, gifts, choices, & of course magic with a post on Great Fantasy Courtships:<\/p>\n

“…You know the sort: where girl\/boy sees\/meets boy\/girl and sparks fly across crowded ballrooms, or market squares, and then they want to see each other again, sometimes despite obstacles, and maybe\u2014just maybe\u2014they fall in love…”<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

And I feature samples from novels by Guy Gavriel Kay<\/a>, Laini Taylor<\/a> and Kate Elliott<\/a>, as well as from The Heir of Night<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n

There’s some questions too—around your<\/em> favourite Fantasy courtship—if you care to answer them. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n
