￩ Back to the Sci-Fi/Fantasy Books With Disability Masterlist // Character with Disability: Love Interest

Representation of physical disabilities is hard to find, especially in sci-fi/fantasy, so my goal is to make a list containing as many sci-fi/fantasy books with physically disabled and chronically ill characters as possible. If you have a book to add, the best way to let me know is to fill out this form! (Sorry if it takes me a while to add new books sometimes!)

List below can be filtered by genre, character, or disability. You can also check this list of all disability tags. If you’re looking for a specific book, it should come up if you use the blog search in the sidebar.

Since I have not read all of these books myself, I cannot guarantee that all the information is correct. I also cannot promise that these books have good representation of disability. If you find incorrect info, if I’ve used incorrect language in relation to a disability, etc., feel free to email me to let me know!

You can find my reviews for books that include disability (both physical and mental illness) here.

Disability:

Is It Cured or Paranormal?: ,

Notes: The premise is about the character trying to get his sight restored, but in the end the wizard says he can't do that. I don't know if that will change later in the series. The character uses magical means to restore sight temporarily sometimes, but not often because it causes headaches.
