Best Fantasy Books This Year

It’s the year 3101. Kazuo Tanaka, an investigative journalist from Tokyo, arrives in Paris to expose the corruption of a powerful politician. However, his investigation takes a deadly turn when Morrigan, a vampire, warns him of a sinister plot. Pursued by vampire clans eager for his unique blood—blood that can kill vampires—Kazuo’s life hangs in the balance. As Morrigan, her fiery familiar Siobhán, and Kazuo face off against the ruthless Marquis of the vampire clan “Les Ombres Sanglantes” and the enigmatic Comtesse of the clan “Les Gardiens de la Nuit”, they uncover a web of intrigue and danger. In a world where trust is scarce and enemies lurk in every shadow, Kazuo must navigate the treacherous landscape of vampire politics while fighting to save his own life. Together, they must battle an army of vampires, werewolves, cyborgs, confront their deepest fears, and one of them must make the ultimate sacrifice. If you're looking for a hardcore heavy action, cool car chases, lots of guns, no harem, realistic themes, and an MC that's not in highschool, this novel is for you.

Protagonists: Lin Feng, Lin Yunyao [Master Descends the Mountain + Invincible Cultivation + Unlimited Power Fantasy + Ruthless Action + Multiverse] In the Way of the Dao, there are imperfections, and spiritual energy has withered. A Tribulation-Transcending Master roamed the world and, by chance, discovered an unparalleled genius with a natural spiritual constitution. He forcefully took this individual as his disciple and retreated from the world for ten years. Ten years later, the Tribulation Master passed away. Lin Feng descended the mountain, riding his sword, embarking on his legendary journey. Lin Feng: “The path of cultivation is one of struggle—against people, against the heavens. I am invincible. Those who defy me will be slain!” Notes: This story is set in a parallel world where martial arts and cultivation each have their own distinct systems of practice. The protagonist is ruthless, decisive in killing, and not a benevolent savior. He does not involve himself in others’ affairs unless it benefits him. Aside from family, everyone else—whether man or woman—are mere ants in his eyes. This is a pure, adrenaline-pumping power fantasy. If certain details seem illogical, I kindly ask readers to take it with a grain of salt and not read too deeply into it. Please, avoid comparing it to real life. Much appreciated!
