Cover of the Grimoire anthology for the ECCC 2026. There's a girl in a red cape climbing story stairs surrounded by dead, spiky branches. Artist is Todd Lockwood

Only meant to take a little hiatus... turns out it's been 3 months. 😣
Here's a quick round up of Robin Hobb news you may have missed!

Oh wait, I see you're in the UK. My bad. I don't know what's up with that then, sorry.

I believe it's UK only for now. There was a 2 year gap when they released the previous ones for the US & UK markets, so I guess there might be contractual reasons the new ones aren't available everywhere as of yet.

Getting ready for Grit City Comic Show in Tacoma Washington. Going through the con table box to find tablecloths, name banner etc. It's a one day show at the Tacoma Convention center. Very affordable and nice for families. Or, well, any comic fans

I agree that it does feel a bit awkward, maybe because it really should be “[first name] FitzChivalry”. Instead, he’s truly nameless, simply “son/bastard of Chivalry”. But I won’t spoil you whether the story reveals his first name later on! 😉

Great review! Re: spelling of Fitz- I think historically the prefix has been used similarly (FitzGerald, FitzJames etc) but it was sometimes written with a lowercase & separately: “John fitz Richard”. Interestingly a father’s title could b used instead of his name too-so FitzRoy aka son of the king.

No need to apologise but a word of warning about spoilers - the Fool is a character that undergoes a LOT of changes throughout the series so if you go looking for fanart early on, you might see some pretty major ones.

Quick digital drawing of a blue, serpentine dragoness. She is shiny and frilled.

Just a small doodle of the absolute queen, Tintaglia.
I can't really say anything here without being offensively spoilery. Please go read Realm of the Elderlings by @robinhobb.bsky.social 💙 I beg you.

fan art Posts on theplentynet tagged as fan art

I have reblogged lots of fan art over the years on tumblr if you want to see how other readers depict the characters (theplentynet.tumblr.com/tagged/fan%2...) It’s all tagged with character + book title and/or series so you can browse and/or block to avoid spoilers!

Thank you. My set probably won’t arrive until a couple of weeks from now so it’s great to see such a lovely & detailed, high quality video of it.

The @illumicrate.bsky.social 10th Anniversary Farseer Trilogy special edition set is finally here and the ARTWORK has me totally spoiled. Each piece of art detailed a favorite scene or character from this series that literally does not ever leave my mind. I’m obsessed 😍 #booksky
