The worst thing about a good fantasy? The inevitable end. These authors are our heroes for expanding their worlds. A realm on the edge of destruction in “Blade Breaker” by Victoria Aveyard; West Africa-inspired Otera in “Merciless Ones” by Namina Forna; and a monstrous version of 20s Shanghai in “Our Violent Ends” by Chloe Gong are explored with moderators Austin Ferraro and Ava Luo.
