Historical Fantasy

Historical fantasy is a subgenre of fantasy literature that combines elements of historical fiction with elements of fantasy. These stories typically take place in a historical setting, such as medieval Europe or ancient China, but feature elements of magic, mythology, or other supernatural elements.

Historical fantasy stories may include real historical events, figures, and cultures, but often take liberties with the details to incorporate fantastical elements. For example, a story set in medieval Europe may feature dragons or wizards, while a story set in ancient Greece may include gods and goddesses.
