"Really cool idea! The time travel story line seemed so much more interesting than some of the other companies stories that do similar tales through the mail."

Letters From Other Worlds

Unlike a fantasy letter subscription, each series is a single purchase, and the tale wraps up on its own.

Fantasy has always loved a letter: the message sealed with wax, the note carried across a kingdom. Fiction Mail turns that into a real reading experience. Each series is told through personal letters of 1,500 to 2,000 words, mailed in kraft envelopes one at a time so the world unfolds slowly, the way a good fantasy should.

Explore the Series

Start with a 4-week cozy tale, settle in for an 8-week adventure, or spend a full year with letters from across time.

  • The Meadows Mystery (8 weekly letters): Squire Nelvast follows a trail of wilted flowers to an abandoned mage's cottage, forbidden magic, and a sleeping dragon at the center of a dangerous plot. Our first fantasy series, written by Nicholas.
  • In Plain Sight (4 weekly letters): A cozy fantasy. Baknore, a grumpy dwarf merchant, catches a food thief who turns out to be a baby mimic, and now he has to hide her from nosy customers and a meddling guard captain.
  • Phantom Cruise (8 weekly letters): Supernatural suspense at sea. Paul's first cruise fills with events no one can explain.
  • Time Traveler (4, 8, or 12 letters): Professor Mellon writes from pivotal moments in history with sharp wit and firsthand accounts of the people he meets.

A Gift for Fantasy Readers Who Have Read Everything

Fantasy fans are hard to shop for because they've usually read the series you were going to buy them. A story that comes by mail, with their name in it, is something they won't already own. Mark it as a gift to add a note and wrap the first letter.
