1. – fantasy story, stylized as an epic. About how the best fighter of the North, named Black Yangar, wanted to marry the beautiful Pirkko, but instead of her he got Inna, her bastrada sister, as his wife. It's not easy to read, but it gives a lot of impressions.

The feeling that arises turns out to be mutual and strong, but he has a position, obligations and... a curse. Wonderful.
5. – one novel combines two storylines: one of them describes the life of an ordinary girl from our world, of which there are millions, the other tells the stories of dancers from the temple of the Great Goddess, naturally, from another world. The idea is original, and its implementation is no worse.

10. - the story of the illegitimate daughter of Prince Darena, who was chosen as his bride by the heir from the animal people. The work is intriguing, but the narrative as a whole is quite tense.
You will soon be able to read about how happiness comes to those who thirst for love, not in spite of life’s troubles, but in spite of everything, in the selection: where I will include works in which the characters find themselves together against their own will: at the behest of their parents, debt, circumstances, etc.
These books can also be safely classified as romantic fantasy; they differ from all others only in the plot. Reading them, we have to trace how coldness and hostility between two strangers gradually develops into an ardent, mutual feeling. It’s fascinating to follow the development of such events, isn’t it?

Today I will list the ones they presented as the best romance fantasy of 2016. Vampires, werewolves, sorcerers, demons and succubi - these are the characters in these fairy tales for adult girls. I have not read most of them, although I am familiar with other works by these authors (not all). So, top 10 according to Litres
I’ll start with the young author Milena Zavoichinskaya, who won the popularity and love of fans of the genre with her novels “The Thirteenth Bride”, the cycles “Irzhina”, “House at the Crossroads”, Series "Higher School of Librarians" The third novel in this latest series, Special Purpose Book Walkers, was a hit last year.
The main character Kira Zolotova is a student High school librarians and bookseller for special purposes. She will become the greatest magician. Under the guidance of the dark fairy Annatiniel Cariboro, the heroine and her partner Karel must not only master bestiology and fairy studies, but also endure difficult practical exercises, prepared by a strict mentor.

Even if this makes the whole school tremble literally, and the rector is turning gray. But it's fun and interesting. Very. And this too" special purpose» VSB adherents Kira Zolotova.
The following author is also well known for her romantic and funny books. Fascinating plot, good language, well-written characters, circumstances, worlds for this genre. Perhaps none of her novels I have read has disappointed me. All of them are written quite smoothly, there are no obvious failures. Therefore, it is not surprising that the second book in her next cycle, “Astra,” became a bestseller of 2016.
One of the reader reviews: " I’ll say right away that I personally liked the first part more. there, intrigue and love arise, somehow everything is twisted. in the second part there is much less of this, mainly Astra’s throwing, and such that at times I wanted to hit her. but overall, it’s quite readable, especially for those who were interested in the first part and want to know the end of the story. HE is present, so after reading you are left with a pleasant aftertaste and the belief that fairy tales exist."
This novel from Olga Huseynova Litres awarded two titles at once - bestseller and bestseller. Unlike the first two, I’m not familiar with the author and her novels, so I’ll just give Litres the floor:
Everyone knows that any unlucky girl, finding herself in another World, always becomes the owner of the body of the smartest, the most beautiful, the strongest. In a word, the very best. And then the whole world, complete with a magnificent lover, appears at her feet.
But what to do if you find yourself in the body of a long time ago completely crazy Light One, and even married to a harsh and ruthless Dark Magician?

- one of the best writers today in the genres of fantasy, combat science fiction and romance literature. Her novels sell millions of copies, and electronic copies are searched online for free. From my own experience, I want to say that some of her books seemed weak to me, while others really captivated me. The cycles of works she created are very different in the characters and worlds depicted in them. this one is dedicated to witches, witchcraft worlds and magic.
This third book in the Order and Chaos saga continues the amazing adventures of academy student Kara Thorne. The heroine masters the mystical gift of seeing, which is not only beneficial, but also brings great danger.
Kara had just begun to discover herself and her gift when she was swallowed up by a real whirlpool of adventures.
From reader reviews: " There are a lot of books and series about academies, and this is one of them. I read it quickly and without disappointment. But I didn’t get incredible pleasure either. The plot interested me. I want to wait for the continuation. The heroine is flat, without depth, but does not cause rejection. Therefore, I recommend reading it if you like fantasy about academies."
- I read the three books in the series with pleasure and waited for the fourth. You won’t regret reading it. The characters are emotional, the passions are so strong. The development of the plot keeps you in suspense. I enjoyed following, first two, and then three love lines.
Daria Kuznetsova is a young author, she has only 4 novels in Litres so far, and the first one “became a hit.
Princess Alexandra is a smart girl. She understands that the continuation of the war between the two empires will end in failure, so without regret she agrees to a dynastic marriage with the younger brother of the ruler of the Rush empire, sealing the peace treaty.

And two smart person They can always agree, even if one of them is not a person at all.
From reviews: " I came across this author by accident; I had never read Russian authors before. The first novel The Emperor's Word captured me and I couldn't put it down. Sensible heroes, an interesting story, no hysterics of the heroine and no outbursts of the hero. When I finished reading it, I felt sad and wanted to know more and more about their lives. The book has a little bit of everything, adventures, unusual situations, and intrigue. The author writes quite evenly, calmly, and this is also not usual. The book Cat's Pride and Wolf's Honor also contains humor. I had a great time reading the books of this author and, thanks to Daria Kuznetsova, I discovered the world of Russian romantic fantasy."

The book opens the series “Lords of Trialin” and tells the story of amazing story love that touched the hearts of two completely different in character and social status heroes. The old legend about the beautiful Cinderella and the wonderful prince finds a new, interesting and intriguing frame.
Personally, this novel of hers seemed a little rustic to me, but if I once again want to return to the eternal fairy tale and just relax, then I wouldn’t scratch it. In any case, she had quite a lot of fans who voted for her with rubles and made her a bestseller of 2016.
