Do you ever feel like you’ve had a little too much of the typical fantasy that we see these days? \u00a0Sometimes it feels like the genre takes itself too seriously. \u00a0A couple of my favorite shows are Outlander and Game of Thrones, and both of those have had incredibly disheartening episodes this season. \u00a0Fantasy is capable of so much more than that though. \u00a0It can take you to another place entirely, where things have the possibility of being just as whimsical as they are dangerous. \u00a0Think of Willow, or The Princess Bride or Stardust. \u00a0They’re incredible stories set in realms of fantasy, and they’re not nearly as morose or grimdark as what we see these days (not that those are bad things – it’s just nice to have the option for some lighter fare).<\/p>\n

If you’re in the market for something a little more airy but just as interesting, think about starting off the warmer months with Out to Give a Dragon Treasure<\/em>, by Stephen Prescott. \u00a0In this fantasy tale, things begin with a much warmer, jovial tone. \u00a0You know right from the get-go that this is the kind of story that won’t bog you down with brooding heroes and psychopathic\u00a0villains. \u00a0It’s lighthearted and humorous, and the characters are quirky and fun. \u00a0It’s a quick read, too – a perfect way to start your summer reading if you haven’t already.<\/p>\n
