Place your preorders and library holds now, because these are the biggest and buzziest queer fantasy books out in the fall. I started writing this list as simply "the most-anticipated queer books of fall," but I soon realized they were all fantasy novels! There’s something about fall that lends itself to fantasy reading, I think.

Several of these are sequels, because do we ever anticipate a new release more than when it’s the next installment of a beloved series? There are also some standalones by favourite authors. They run the gamut from cozy fantasy to military fantasy. Let me know in the comments what you’d add to this list!
