As Robin Hobb
The Farseer Trilogy
The Farseer Trilogy follows the life of FitzChivalry Farseer (Fitz), a royal bastard and trained assassin, in a kingdom called The Six Duchies while his uncle, Prince Verity, attempts to wage war on the Red-Ship Raiders from The Outislands who are attacking the shores of the kingdom.
The Liveship Traders Trilogy
The Liveship Traders Trilogy mainly takes place south of The Six Duchies in Bingtown (a colony of Jamaillia) and focuses on Liveships (sentient ships). The trilogy is unusually nautical — an area seldom covered in fantasy.
The Tawny Man
The Tawny Man continues the life of FitzChivalry Farseer from The Farseer Trilogy. It commences 15 years after the events in Assassin's Quest, a period covered by The Liveship Traders Trilogy. It focuses on The Fool's attempts to guide others to fulfil his prophecies.
Soldier Son Trilogy
This is Robin Hobb's new trilogy. She is currently working on the second book.
- Shaman's Crossing (Expected in July 2005)
