Urban Web Novels

Urban novels on Tellura are set in cities, real or invented. Includes urban fantasy with hidden magical districts, gritty modern crime, and contemporary stories where the city itself shapes the plot. Frequently pairs with modern-setting and magic-system.

The distinction from modern-setting is scope rather than era: urban means the city does work in the plot, its density, its anonymity, its districts. Hidden magical quarters and crime fiction both depend on that. A novel set today in a village is modern-setting and rural, not urban.
