Fantasy Novels are scored in terms of:

Magic Systems: A well-defined magic system - a sense of wonder and possibility, a world with different rules allowing for unique forms of conflict and resolution.

World-Building: A new, imaginary world with its own geography, history, cultures, and laws. Rich and detailed it immerses the reader in the story, making the setting feel real and lived-in.

Mythic Tropes & Archetypes: Familiar patterns - a foundational structure that readers can easily connect with, while still allowing for creative subversions and new interpretations.

Moral Ambiguity: Complex characters and situations - lines between right and wrong are blurred, adding depth and realism, prompting readers to think critically about the characters' choices.
