Crystals of Ulstra fantasy world framed as queer-normative
Original: CRYSTALS OF ULSTRA FAQ: How is Ulstra queer normative? Homophobia doesn’t exist in Ulstra. Being queer is an ordinary fa
The fantasy setting of Crystals of Ulstra is being presented as a place where homophobia simply does not exist and being queer is an ordinary, unremarkable fact of life. Readers in book communities are discussing this queer-normative worldbuilding approach, in which LGBTQ characters live without discrimination and queerness needs no justification within the story.
Why now: Readers and queer fantasy fans are engaging with the book's inclusive worldbuilding and its FAQ explaining how queerness is normalized in Ulstra.
