This list contains novels (and other book-length works), short stories, and story treatments by Lawrence Watt-Evans that are in the fantasy genre. In some cases, short stories that are arguably fantasy have been listed under science fiction or horror instead; I apologize for any confusion that may result. Within each of the three categories here stories are listed by series, if any, and non-series material, or stuff with no internal order, is then arranged alphabetically.
