Adventure fiction

Adventure novels and short stories were popular subjects for American pulp magazines.

Adventure fiction is a type of fiction that usually presents danger, or gives the reader a sense of excitement. Some adventure fiction also satisfies the literary definition of romance fiction.[1]
