ROBIN HOBB

This is very last minute!  Today is November 11, Monday.  Tomorrow, Tuesday November 12, I will drive to Seattle and sign the speical order books at University Book Store.  If you want a signed book, you should order it today!

I am not certain that i will get up there in December, so if you are ordering a holiday gift, today is the day!

To get a signed, personalized book, go to the Universtiy Book Store website, select the book and when you are ordering, in the comments section, type that you'd like it signed.  It's that simple.  They give me the information, I sign the book as you wish, and then they ship it to you.

I'm very sorry this is last minute, and I regret that some of you have been waiting a while for the books you already ordered.  Duane has been out of action after a foot surgery.  We were trying to wait for him to come back to work, but it looks like that will take a bit longer.  So I'm going up there tomorrow to get all the orders signed and out of the way!

A quick reminder that my next public signing will be at Dragon Steel Nexus Convention, in Salt Lake City, Utah, in early December.

On November 9, 2024, I will be at the Tacoma Convention Center for Grit City Comic Show!   This is a one day show, so don't delay! This comic show is unique to Tacoma and one of my favorites to attend. It's very affordable and very family friendly.  Tickets on line are $10, but kids ten and under get in for free with a paying adult!  Tickets at the door will be $15. The convention will be open from 10 AM to 5 PM.  It will be a warm, dry family break from our current bout of windy, rainy weather!

In addition to comics, books and conventional (and unconventional) convention merchandise, there will be cosplay, and an amazing Lego display.  Gaming will be going on as well, with a unique Santa versus Crampus game offered.

For me, this will be the first time I actually have a table in Artists Alley, and I will be selling copies of the first six issues of the Dark Horse Comics adaptation of Assassin's Apprentice.  I will also have a few copies of the Volume One Graphic Novel of Assassin's Apprentice. 

In addition, I will be raiding my storage unit to offer Megan Lindholm's urban fantasy set in Seattle:  Wizard of the Pigeons in hardback with illustrations by Tommy Arnold.  Other yet-to-be-chosen items from my storage unit will also be offered, including editions of Robin Hobb and Megan Lindholm books that are First Editions, out-of-print, and hard to find.  Those will be in very limited supply.  All sales will be cash only. 

I will hope to see you there!

But, if Tacoma is too far of a drive for you, I want to remind you that The Signed Page is celebrating its 25th Anniversary with a 25% off sale on lovely autographed editions by many best-selling authors (including Robin Hobb!)  The Signed Page is a wonderful site for bibliophiles and collectors, ensuring that every item you order is shipped to you and arrives in pristine condition. 

Isn't that cover art amazing?  That's Paragon, as envisioned by John Howe.  This cover is for the limited edition from Subterranean Press  

Some copies of this are still available, but past experience has taught us that they sell out quickly.  So, if you want one, now is the time.  Collectors and Bibliophile quality from Sub Press, as always.

Very shor blog post; still dealing with post covid fog.  It's awful
