A tavern named The Snacks Of Candy. (Now with sweets!)

A shrine named Nutshell. (Titan hunting in a nutshell)

I have authored the most curious fiction book. I'm not a literary expert, but the subject is pretty clear to me:

Still a Better Love Story than Twilight. Meanwhile, somebody in that world is now writing 50 Shades of Basalt.

Give Me The Mountainhome by the slade draconian Utes Screamsin (The draconian really wants to become the king of dwarves)
The Lovers And Toast by the elf Utes Seducedsoothed (Hmmm, is that an elf living in a draconian settlement or what? Their first names are suspiciously similar)
The Mountain Halls In The Age Of Myth by the draconian Ngokang Liespun (Well, since the world had the amount of beasts set to "Very High", there's always the Age Of Myth here, dummy!)
The Slade Draconians The Easy Way by the draconian Amxu Carnalmenace (Now they're self-aware and writing modding tutorials)
Loss For Everyone by the slade draconian Snamoz Spiderdemon (Draconian went all emo)
Understanding The Scratch Test by the slade draconian Urvad Loverswords (If you have trouble understanding that, a book won't really help)
Against Mating by the elf Imiwa Baldwing (*checking the wiki* Asexuality IS modeled in this game, but I'm not sure if that elf was one)
Dissection: My Only Mistake by the elf Eslome Hoistferns (Oops.)

The Creatures: Before and After by the elf Vadane Waxspark (...What did you do to the animals, Vadane?)
The Hidden Meaning of Breathing by the human Mapo Nailpig (You may be overthinking this.)
The Lie: Fact or Fiction? by the magma dweller Rithol Raysdrawl
Against Animal Survival by the elf Ola Shellswring (This book was written on forgotten beast parchment... Should I be concerned?)
Can Diseases Save the World? by the dwarf Stodir Lulledtorches
Evaporation Without Limits by the magma dweller Nelas Fruitclutters
The Elves, My Love by the dwarf Dastot Oartuft (Traitor!)
And They Sang 'Sponges!' by the goblin Abba Loverrespect
Animal Embryos and Other Travesties by the elf Thilu Steamedfrills

Spoiler (click to show/hide)
I looks like elves are obsessed with studying reproduction. In my world elves have written Against Mating again, along with many other books on the subject. Elves are weird.

"... Ensuring complete. Global. SATURATION!"

Also, I swear, this game's people are obsessed with mating. I remember one world where like a third of the written books were on animal mating habits.

Clearly you haven't noticed the sheer volume of medieval treatises on animal husbandry.

Typical biologists. All animals do are acquire food and reproduce, and what do you think they observe most?

I went to a temple.

I think I just walked in on some sort of hippy cult.
