Dark Manga Fantasy - In Novel Form

​A sub-genre of Fantasy that incorporates grittier and more mature themes. This could also be called Grim Dark Fantasy. But when it comes to the magic system used in my work, I find “Manga” to be the correct term in the sense of what these characters can do, the origin of their abilities, and the consequences of their use, as it is more inline with the graphic animated films of the late 80s & 90s. These all contained elements of Horror, Sexual Content, Adult Subject Matters, and Explicit Violence. I use this medium as a vessel to tell original stories that often seem cosmic, horrifying, and WAY out there. But at the same time, I want to ground these tales in realism, with characters that have real, identifying issues, which I understand is a lot for some people to process, as I do not sugar coat things, and I do not provide much in the way of internal dialogue; but rather, I allow the reader to see what the character sees, and hopefully, feel what they feel, in the same way you would when watching a scene on tv.
