In this episode of Fantasy Explorations, we dive into the intriguing interplay between epic fantasy and romantic plot lines. The discussion begins with a cautionary note about trusting authors who start with a 'happily ever after' premise, leading into a personal exploration evolving my views on romantic plots. The episode covers various romantic tropes in fantasy literature, including arranged marriages, couples forged through hardship, and love above all stories! It also highlights lighthearted love stories and the enemy-to-lovers trope, concluding with a reflection on timeless couples in fantasy, such as Tom Bombadil and Goldberry.You can find more information about fantasy stories - with a focus on books - on www.solseit.com and on threads and IG at solseit_the_enthusiast.
