The broader Fantasy category on Amazon is a high-volume beaten-track market (~815k titles, power index 66.9) with strong daily sales velocity at the top, meaning discoverability is the main moat. The Horror adjacency (power index 54.2, ~319k titles) provides a secondary browse-node opportunity that necromancer titles can legitimately occupy, with a lower competition ceiling and a KU share above 43%. Necromancer urban fantasy sits at the intersection of both categories, benefiting from reader appetite for dark magic systems and anti-hero leads that is currently rising steadily. Straight dark-academia necromancer aesthetics and cozy-adjacent death-magic romances are cooling as the first wave of imitators floods the market.
