Where to Start with Elizabeth Knight

Since debuting in 2020, Elizabeth Knight has established herself as a powerhouse in the "Why Choose" (reverse harem) romance subgenres, publishing over forty books across fantasy, sci-fi, mafia romance, and the omegaverse. Because her series cross into vastly different worlds, the best place to start depends entirely on your preferred genre:

  • For Epic Fantasy & Dragons: Start with the Mercenary Queen series, beginning with Birthright. This is her signature high-stakes fantasy series, following a noble-born woman who claims her magical destiny alongside a black dragon.
  • For Dark Mafia Romance: Dive into the Caprioni Queen series, starting with Glitter and Guns. It provides an excellent introduction to her modern romantic suspense style and leads directly into her sci-fi mafia spin-offs.
  • For Classical Omegaverse: Begin with the Knot All Is Omegaverse series, starting with Knot All Is Lost: Part 1. This duet features a darker, high-stakes dystopian omegaverse setting.
  • For Elemental Magic & Academy Vibes: Start with the Elementi series, beginning with Discovering Synergy, which follows a heroine discovering her rare magical affinities.

This series features contributions from authors like Sinclair Kelly and Letty Frame. Elizabeth Knight co-wrote Book 1 and wrote Book 3:

  • Stroke of Luck (Book 3, 2021)

What to Know Before You Start

Before diving into Elizabeth Knight's catalog, readers should note that her novels are predominantly "Why Choose" (Reverse Harem) romances, where the female protagonist ends up with multiple romantic partners rather than choosing just one. Her worlds frequently feature mature themes, including explicit sexual content, BDSM elements, and dark romance tropes. Many of her books—particularly the first parts of her duets—end on cliffhangers, so it is highly recommended to have the sequels on hand before you begin reading.
