It’s DEFY THE WORLDS launch day! Hit your local bookstore to find out what happens next for Abel and Noemi. Separated by the Liberty War for the independence of planet Genesis, Abel and Noemi have an entire galaxy between them. When Earth strikes at Genesis through biological warfare, however, Noemi is forced to venture back into the greater galaxy in an attempt to find help. But doing so puts her incredible danger–from which only Abel may be able to save her. Yet Abel knows that stepping forward to help means exposing himself to his creator, Burton Mansfield, who will stop at nothing to reclaim Abel for his own. 

Did I mention DEFY THE STARS is $2.99 on all online platforms this week? BECAUSE IT IS. Time to plunge in, people!

Heyy do you know some books with teratophilia themes? Or if not, some good monster books?

fuck-yeah-monsters-and-villains:

Thank you for
asking! Really, your ask was exactly what I needed. You see, I was thinking
of writing this list for some time now but I was too lazy.

I have stuff to
recommend because I‘ve been actively looking for books that
feature inter-species/monster romances for a long time. Fun fact: Up
until recently I didn‘t know that this kink was called
teratophilia. 🙂 Thanks, tumblr for educating me. Also, since I found
out how to navigate the relevant tags my life has improved
immeasurably.

Books with monsters as love interests:

  • Radiance (Wraith
    Kings, #1) – Grace Draven

The
male protagonist is terrifying by human standards. He finds the human
heroine appalling and he’s just as ugly to her. The like each other
from the start.

Alien-lizard-man,
monk and fighter… Need I say more? Ok: The heroine is fat. She does
lose weight while trying to survive on a hostile alien planet though.
The lizard man protagonist is interested in her either way. All kinds
of trigger warnings for this book: violence, rape, gore, death. It’s
also over 900 pages long. Crazy.

Alien-Insect
man, single dad and adorable. The human social worker really tries to
help him and she does… Reads like District 9 fan fiction which is a
good thing! This book is a bit tamer than The Last Hour of Gann but
the sex is still graphic. 🙂

Check
out this author’s other books as she seems to specialize in
monsters of all kinds.

Girl
is abducted by the King of the Goblins. This is not a David Bowie
Goblin King, this one looks really monstrous. It’s a YA book but
the good kind. The heroine is not an insufferable brat and there is
no love triangle (note: love triangles are only acceptable for me if
they end in a three-way).

Really
beautiful and magical book, sex happens but off-screen.

Another
one where the Goblin King really looks like a goblin. Set in
Jane-Austen-Land.

The
heroine is almost a cyborg. Her extremities were replaced by
completely overpowered prosthetics after a horrific assault while
working as a government agent. She’s traumatized, in pain, doesn’t
have full control of her new body and hasn’t come to terms with her
new menacing look. The rock star demon elf protagonist is very much
into her. Yes, really.

Add
a really inhuman demon to the mix with whom the heroine also has an
intense relationship. Don’t worry it’s not a fucking love
triangle (the bane of my existence). You’ll see… Actually the
description of the whole demon society is very cool and unique and
probably my favorite part of the book.

The
male love interest is a genetically manipulated cat-like human. Plot
driven science fiction book.

Trigger
warning: atrocious cover art

Still,
give this book a chance! Fluffy and sweet romance between a human
woman and an alien-lizard man. Enough plot to be still considered a
science fiction romance rather than just erotica in space.

  • Earthrise
    (Her Instruments, #1) – M.C.A Hogarth

This
is an actual furry novel. I did not know such a thing existed.
Thankfully the main couple is a WOC and a space elf but there are so
many furries in this book. For example there is a furry (tiger-like ?) couple. They are siblings (twins actually)… But don’t
worry that’s perfectly normal on their planet.

Now
one might think by this description that this book is completely
depraved erotica. Unfortunately it’s not. The tone of this book is
so sweet and cute it could be directed at children. Spoilers: It’s
not because, you know, incest…

So
yeah, strange experience but if your are into this stuff this might
be the book for you.

This
one is really erotica. Mainly sex, a little plot.

Human
heroine meets impossibly tall gender-fluid space-elf prince who grows
an interesting cock over the course of this novella. Yeah.


Books
I haven’t read yet :


(I
don’t know if they are good.)

  • Books
    with dragons:
    They are really easy to find. Just type ‘dragon’
    in the search bars of Goodreads or Amazon. From children’s books to
    erotica – there are many titles to choose from. I can’t really
    recommend a specific book because they are not my preferred kind of
    monster. I have read a few books with dragons but nothing that was
    memorable enough to recommend it. I’ve yet to find an interesting
    dragon. 😉

Do you know a book with a monstrous love interest? Please, contact me or reblog with your recommendation! Thanks 🙂

Reblogging
to add some books I forgot in my initial post:

It’s
the end of the world but in a remote valley a small group of people
survived. A woman strikes a deal with a magical creature, the Hob to
keep them safe.The
Hob is monstrous, magical and mischievous and also the last of his
kind. The poor monster boy just wants a girlfriend. 😉

Human
blogger tries to raise awareness for the amphibious hero’s people
who suffer on their occupied home world. The first book seems to set
up a polyamorous relationship.  

Books
I haven’t read yet:

Seems
to have a lot in common with The Shape of Water. It’s also the only
book on this list that falls into the category of literary fiction.

For
Orc lovers. I don’t know if there is romance. 

Thanks
to @roguesareth who suggested

  • Valiant
    (Modern Faerie Tales
    #2)
    – Holly Black

The
love interest is a bridge troll.

LIST UPDATE

@cuthbertflangenibbler asked me if I knew any books with female monsters. I had to think
long and hard to come up with the three following examples. Female
monsters are even harder to find. This may or may not have to do with
beauty standards. Often a woman’s physical attractiveness
determines if they are worthy of being loved. Yes, it also happens to
men but why then is it so difficult to find monstrous women?

BTW
if you know a Beauty and the Beast version where the beast is female
(and not just on the inside because that’s lame) and Mr. Prettyface
Bell needs to fall in love with her to save her or something similar,
please send this precious piece of media my way! That is actually
roughly the plot of the adorable movie Penelope which is on my list
of Ugly
Badass Girls Getting the Hot Guy in Fantasy and Science Fiction
.


Ok,
here is my short list of FEMALE MONSTERS:

I
read two or three of this series ages ago but I really liked it back
then. I’m not even sure why I didn’t continue.

Human
survivors of a spacecraft build colony on the home world of humanoid
aliens. They are very tall, their skin is pitch black and they are far
less emotional than humans. The story centers around the human (male)
emissary who lives among these aliens and his struggles to keep the
political relations smooth while trying to regulate the technical exchange
between the two cultures (the alien culture is per-industrialization
as far as I can remember). A female bodyguard is assigned to him.
Their relationship slowly turns from professional to romantic.

The
main protagonists of this fantasy novel are actually a  human woman and a male who is described as a golem is this book. There are also
female golems with interesting story arcs. One of them gets her own
tentative love story with a human girl.

The
golems in this book are hard to describe. They are human shaped, have
clawed hands and interact strangely with light which changes their
appearance.

I
haven’t read this one yet but as far as I know the male protagonist
has a female alien (insectoid?) lover.


After
going through my “to read list” I found some more books which are
a good fit for this post:

  • Adaption
    (Adaption Series #1) – Pepper Pace

The
alien in this book seems really quite far from humanoid looking.

A giant spider by the name of Nth is turned into a human to help on a
quest against a dark lord.

Review HERE

This one is probably a literary cyborg/human love story paralleling
the story of the golem in Jewish folklore.

@xmiss-megafaunax recommended:

  • Cinder
    (The Lunar Chronicles #1) – Marissa Meyer

“Not
fully centered around the monstrous love interest, but Scarlet’s
love interest is kind of like an alien version of a werewolf.”


For further reading take a look at these two Listopias on
Gooodreads:

I’ve read some of those and if I really liked them they are on the
list.

If you read a book from this list and like it for one reason or
another, please let me know! I love recommendations. 🙂

corseque:

only things I care about

  • monster romance
  • shitty wizards
  • grown men crying
  • that moment when you and your hot fated sworn nemesis meet on the grand last battlefield that has turned all you both know to corpses and ash, and you think for a moment, swords drawn, that you’ll finally have to end the long dance and kill each other — but no, you can just see your sacred enemy’s eyes are mirrors of your own, your true and only equal, their pain is your pain, and so you finally lay down your weapons, relent and bend and kiss at the end of the world

#everything else is boring

Get ready to DEFY THE STARS on April 4th! Check out an excerpt of Claudia’s new interstellar adventure series over on Entertainment Weekly.  

DEFY THE STARS by Claudia Gray

Noemi Vidal is seventeen years old and sworn to protect her planet, Genesis. She’s willing to risk anything—including her own life. To their enemies on Earth, she’s a rebel.

He’s a machine.

Abandoned in space for years, utterly alone, Abel has advanced programming that’s begun to evolve. He wants only to protect his creator, and to be free. To the people of Genesis, he’s an abomination.

Noemi and Abel are enemies in an interstellar war, forced by chance to work together as they embark on a daring journey through the stars. Their efforts would end the fighting for good, but they’re not without sacrifice. The stakes are even higher than either of them first realized, and the more time they spend together, the more they’re forced to question everything they’d been taught was true.

Check out this book on Goodreads: Defy the Stars (Constellation, #1) https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/31423196-defy-the-stars

___________________________

There are some pretty strong reylo vibes:

Naomi is capable and strong willed but has almost no sense of self worth. Orphaned at an early age she never had the feeling of truly belonging somewhere. After losing the only person she truly connected with she’s ready to sacrifice herself to change the outcome of a battle to buy her people more time in an ongoing war.

Abel is an android, constructed and groomed to fulfil one specific purpose for his creator. Abandoned for decades on a space ship he knows the meaning of loneliness. Yet when Naomi frees him and his programming demands that he accepts her as his new master his main objective stays the same. Find his true master and seek his approval.

Both Naomi and Abel travel together on a risky mission to turn the outcome of the war. Slowly they find out that they are more than the sum of their parts, more than their upbringing or programming.
