(Adventure fiction; UFs: Adventure stories, Swashbucklers, Thrillers; use for works characterized by an emphasis on physical and often violent action, exotic locales, and dangers, generally with little character development)
(Adventure novel. The adventure novel is a genre of novels that have adventure, an exciting undertaking involving risk and physical danger, as its main storyline. Critic Don D'Ammassa, in the Introduction to the Encyclopedia of Adventure Fiction defines the genre by stating that "...an adventure is an event or series of events that happens outside the course of the protagonist's ordinary life, usually accompanied by danger, often by physical action. Adventure stories almost always move quickly, and the pace of the plot is at least as important as characterization, setting and other elements of a creative work"; adventure novels and short stories; Adventure novels often overlap with other genres, notably war novels, crime novels, sea stories, Robinsonades, spy stories (as in the works of John Buchan, Eric Ambler and Ian Fleming), science fiction, fantasy (Robert E. Howard and J.R.R. Tolkien both combined the secondary world story with the adventure novel), and Westerns. Not all books within these genres are adventures. Adventure novels take the setting and premise of these other genres, but the fast-paced plot of an adventure focuses on the actions of the hero within the setting. With a few notable exceptions (such as Baroness Orczy, Leigh Brackett and Marion Zimmer Bradley) adventure novels tend to be a genre largely dominated by male writers, but now female writers seem to write in this category more often.)
