Best Apps for Reading Fantasy Fiction

There’s rarely a better feeling than finding your next favorite book or, even better, a series. Fantasy fiction, quite rightly, is one of the most popular genres around, not least because of how well it seems to suit movie tie-ins, not to mention TV shows. At the top of the pile is usually a bestseller – we all have one in mind. That novel that tops the bestselling list or the latest award winner. We talk to our friends and family about them, and they sell lots of copies. Reading bestselling, mainstream fantasy fiction is a great hobby, and you can use an app like Goodreads to find your next enthralling title. 

Of course, there are so many novels that don’t become bestsellers. This doesn’t necessarily mean they aren’t good enough; it’s just they get lost in the crowd. The world is full of indie authors, plenty of them writing fantasy fiction, just waiting for you to discover them. There are several ways of doing so. One of these is by using an app called BookFunnel, which helps to connect first-time and amateur authors with a potential fanbase. Many of these write fan fiction, an extremely popular sub-genre, or create new and exciting worlds for readers such as yourself. You can often get yourself on mailing lists to receive an advance copy of new books before they come out. 

Reading books is only part of the enjoyment of fantasy fiction. These worlds are meant to be talked about with others who have read them, and by engaging with others, you may discover new titles you wouldn’t have otherwise. One way you can do this online is on forums dedicated to fantasy fiction, where you’ll find others similar to yourself. Chatting to others, or simply reading forum articles, is an excellent way of passing the time and potentially finding a great new read. Other methods of engaging with other readers are reading online reviews or attending local book signings when a particular author comes to town.
