>>5866154>THE BEST FANTASYI was reading polygon's 2023 speculative fiction shortlist (ie whatever publishing houses have paid / bribed them with nonmonetary favours to heap literary blandishments upon...?) So the best fantasy apparently looks like this... what is this...???
https://www.polygon.com/23691206/best-fantasy-books-sci-fi-2023There seems to be a lot of young adult pseudohistory China in this list, in fact two of the recommendations seem to be clones of each other in genre? I don't know if this is the new cognitive warfare culture project lol (well it worked with AbEx and Rothko...) I suppose this is just whatever gets past the sensitivity readers these days
