Falbe believes that fantasy novels need strong friendships to emerge between some characters because the stakes are so high in the plots. With constant danger, magical enemies, and monsters, fantasy characters endure dangerous territories.

“Heroes and heroines really need people to watch their backs,” Falbe said.

Some famous mainstream examples of friends in fantasy fiction are Sam and Frodo and Harry Potter, Hermione and Ron. Friends such as these make the difference between survival and defeat.
