(in other less happy news, it appears the main website has issues/is down - Iβll fix it ASAP. Meanwhile, the wiki is up and running - theplentynet/wiki/)
I believe both #2 and #3 are by Simonetti.
Happy birthday @robinhobb.bsky.social ! π
I hope youβll have a wonderful time at @emeraldcitycon.bsky.social π
Hoping to post another update soon about translations!

Only meant to take a little hiatus... turns out it's been 3 months. π£

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

Yep! π
I agree that it does feel a bit awkward, maybe because it really should be β[first name] FitzChivalryβ. Instead, heβs truly nameless, simply βson/bastard of Chivalryβ. But I wonβt spoil you whether the story reveals his first name later on! π
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: βJohn fitz Richardβ. Interestingly a fatherβs 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 π I beg you.

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...) Itβs all tagged with character + book title and/or series so you can browse and/or block to avoid spoilers!
I've recently started reading the Realm of the Elderlings series for the first time and I've never fallen in love with a book series so fast! Here's some Fitz + The Fool
Thank you. My set probably wonβt arrive until a couple of weeks from now so itβs great to see such a lovely & detailed, high quality video of it.
The @illumicrate.bsky.social edition of the Farseer Trilogy by @robinhobb.bsky.social is AMAZING

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. Iβm obsessed π #booksky
Just received these breathtaking editions of The Farseer Trilogy by @robinhobb.bsky.social from @illumicrate.bsky.social
More pictures to come.
