Pegasus-riding lady knights with lady love interests, a hunger for vengeance, and a concerning relationship to divinity VS A warlord devoted to/scared witless by the giant face of god only he can see devouring souls above the battlefield who will win

Gryphon King was absolutely fantastic with great characters and world building. Can't wait to start Hatpy Knight after I finish Tapestry of Fate by Chakraborty. Highly recommend both series

Ottoman-inspired courts and the Turkic steppe instead of a typical European fantasy world. Flying carnivorous horses instead of dragons. No heroes—a princess knight sacrificing honor for revenge, and a warlord who will conquer the world for a hungry god.

The Harpy Knight, by @omersarae.bsky.social (pub by @titanbooks.bsky.social) is a worthy sequel to the Gryphon King, taking the opportunity to almost make a character study of Nohra, not being afraid of picking the darkest part of the world. Full thoughts: jamreads.com/reviews/the-... 💙📚

FOR METTLE & MOSS is a gender-swapped A Knight’s Tale set on a sky island where tournaments are replaced with ruthless, Survivor-style trials. A cynical lady knight and an anxious lord must stop their world from falling… while resisting falling for each other. 🌕🌖🌗🌘🌑🌒🌓🌔🌕 #questpit #A #RF #Q

For Mettle & Moss is a 108,000-word, dual-POV adult fantasy romance standalone. The background shows lightning striking across a dark sky and the tagline says “Caledin could fall from the sky. Fate* has chosen them to stop it. (*Fate has a terrible sense of humor)”

The pitch: An anxious lord and a cynical knight have three moons to succeed in a series of trials to keep their utopian sky island home from falling—and to keep from falling for each other. Another tagline: If they fail, they fall. The background shows a marble bust of a woman against a black backdrop.

Comps include: The Everlasting and The Knight and the Moth (for lady knights), The Games Gods Play (for chaotic gods), Survivor and Shar’s Gauntlet in BG3 (for unique trials), The Comedy of Errors and A Knight’s Tale (for vibes), and sounds like Sleep Token’s This Place Will Become Your Tomb album. Background is a knight in shining armor against a black backdrop.

Tropes include forced proximity, he falls first, she falls harder, one bed, idiots to lovers, fate versus agency, reverse bodyguard (she is the strong one). A quote from the novel: “We’ve had to be twice as tough to be seen as half as good.” The background is a man’s hands, with ringed fingers, against a black backdrop.
