The definition of fantasy fiction is anything made up or not real. Things that are impossible or improbable. Fantasy fiction can also come from imagination, be made up and could also be an impossible dream of yours, like wanting to fly.

It can be supernatural, imaginary, and include unreal elements. Fantasy fiction also sometimes include the use of mythical animals such as dragons, serpents, basilisks, griffins, unicorns, krakens, chimeras, and hydras. More human-like creatures that can be featured in fantasy fiction are witches, wizards, fairies, mermaids, sirens, sphinxes, banshees, and necromancers.

Of course there are many more than what I’ve listed, in books, many authors have chosen to make up they’re own mythical creatures!

What makes fantasy fiction, fantasy fiction, is imagination and creativity. What has to be in fantasy fiction is some sort of magic in it, such as Harry Potter for example. It has the use of a wizard school and use of magical spells and magical creatures. Fantasy fiction can be realistic but imaginative and unrealistic at the same time, such as a use of a magical object, mythical animals, anything beyond any imagination.

There are many ways to write a fantasy book, different authors have their own ways to convey magic, legends, and myths. Anything magical is fantasy fiction, although sometimes use of technology in books is sometimes mistaken for fantasy. It has nothing to due with magic, technology is code and predictions, that is science fiction.

I love fantasy fiction so much is because you can use your imagination and creativity to create something new, a creature or monster, just anything in general. Many dreams and creations are written is books that make it seem so real. Fantasy fiction can be serene and tranquil or brutal and mysterious. There can be anything imaginative and magical.

There’s no limit to fantasy fictions, that’s why it’s so amazing, there’s magic, myths, legends that are made true. Tranquil dreams to agonizing nightmares can all be made real. Creativity and imagination can be all poured into a single book.

My sister and I have a lot in common and she’s been trying to get me into the Wings of Fire series. I know I’ll like them but I haven’t actually read them yet. So I’d love to read this series and talk about it with my sister.

I know this is fantasy fiction because it has the use of dragons that can talk. They have special abilities and different types of dragons. I’d love to read these books soon!
