Literary Agencies that Represent YA & MG Sci-Fi, Fantasy

We heart literary agents!

Looking for a lit agent can be tough. Places like QueryTracker, AgentQuery, and Manuscript Wish List are amazing resources. But it can still be a challenge to find an agency with agents that represent both the genre and age category you're writing for.

So, here is a list I compiled of 200+ literary agencies with agents that represent YA or MG speculative fiction.

Hope this helps some of you on your querying journey!

Note that I've just listed the agencies here. Some have one agent who reps YA or MG SFF, some have multiple agents who do. Hopefully with a bit more sleuthing you can find the agent that's the right fit for your project.

YA or MG Fantasy & Science Fiction

I've tried to screen these to the best of my ability, however, there are some newer agencies on the list. Always, always do your research before submitting! Make sure you submit to a reputable agent!

The table below contains two tabs: YA and MG. You'll need to toggle over if you want to see the MG list. (Here is a link to the actual spreadsheet)





*If agency name is followed by an asterisk, they rep YA, or MG but didn't specify if they'll take speculative YA

NOTE: If you can't get the scroll bar to work, try these work-arounds:
(1) Click on the chart, then use page-up/page-down keyboard commands
(2) Click on the white space toward the bottom of the scrollbar to scroll down. 
Dragging the grey bar seems to work to scroll it back up
