Fantasy, Urban Fantasy and Horror novels, but with a drawl! Why should Chicago, L.A., and New York get all the fantasy novels? Everyone knows if you want that real magic, you're gonna have to travel south to where the cotton grows. Whether it be demons in the woods of Appalachia, meth-head magic in the backwoods of Alabama, or shifters in the hollows of North Georgia, this page is here to keep you updated on authors who've lived in the South, writing about the lands they love best. Now pull up a rocking chair, get you a big glass of sweet tea, and let me show you where the real magic lies.
