35 | !!Tropes associated with her works: |
36 | * SignatureStyle: Carey is well known for integrating sex and unique relationships into her books, either as part of the plot or exploration of the tropes involved, rather than for {{fanservice}}: |
37 | ** ''Kushiel's Legacy'', the longest running series, as a setting is built from the ground up on exploring fantasy sexual freedom, sometimes verging into {{deconstruction}}, and this is even before we get into what individual characters bring to the mix. |
38 | ** While light on actual sex, ''The Sundering'' is built on inverting Tolkeinesque good-versus-evil mythology while invoking SexIsEvil at the root of the conflict. |
39 | ** Downplayed with ''Santa Olivia'', which merely features a QueerRomance, albeit devoting [[AuthorAppeal plenty of fun time to it]]. |
40 | ** ''Agent of Hel'' follows a heroine that has to deal with a half-demon heritage and UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom tendencies mixed tightly into her emotional and physical relationships. |
41 | ** ''Miranda and Caliban'' is a PerspectiveFlip of Theatre/TheTempest, and befitting a Shakespeare tale, takes full advantage of AlternateCharacterInterpretation to take StarCrossedLovers to its natural heart-wrenching conclusion. |
