Hey everyone! We’re pleased to announce that Peat’s going to Worldcon 2019. He’ll be in Dublin along with many other lovely authors. Here are the events he’s got planned:

Worldcon 2019  – August 15-19, 2019, Dublin, Ireland

Thursday (August 15)

Panel  – I Know My Worth: The Women of Marvel Movies

Marvel properties on the big screen have often been lambasted as having poorly conceptualised depictions of women: is this deserved? From the introduction of Black Widow through the animated Spider Gwen and now Captain Marvel as a leading lady, have women acquired better stories or just more screen time? What still needs improving? And how do the Marvel women compare to the critical acclaim of DC’s Wonder Woman?

When: 17:00 – 17:50
Where: Wicklow Hall 2B (CCD)
Who: Peter V. Brett along with Debra Jess, Benjamin, Rosenbaum, Karina Steffens, and Ms Cassie Parkes.

Friday (August 16)

Autographing Session

When: 10:00 – 10:50
Where: Level 4 Foyer (CCD)
Who: Peter V. Brett along with Jo Walton, Michael Cassutt, and R.F. Kuang

Saturday  (August 17)

Coffee Klatch –’Kaffeeklatsch’ 

When: 12:00 – 12:50
Where: Level 3 Foyer (KK/LB) (CCD)
Who: Peter V. Brett

Monday (August 19)

Panel – Judging a Cover By its Book

An artist doesn’t always read the novel they’re illustrating a cover for, and even when they do they can make mistakes. Sometimes it’s just funny; other times it’s outrageous. What are the worst mistakes you’ve seen on covers, or when has a cover completely misrepresented the story it’s supposed to be selling?

When: 12:30 – 13:20
Where: Alhambra (Point Square Dublin)
Who: Peter V. Brett along with Celine Kiernan, Cat Marsters, and Rob Carlos

Hey everyone! Today we’re thrilled to have a special sort of fan-video to show off. Renee April put up a One Chapter Wonder video in which she reads a chapter from The Painted Man.

This is an awesome idea, and I think she did a great job. Check it out:

Very cool. Also, that is indeed one of the limited-edition Australian hardcovers of The Painted Man.  They were the book to ever have Lauren Cannon’s newest ward circle design and they were made specifically for Peat’s fans in Australia.

Good job getting your hands on one and many thanks for the fantastic reading! To see more of Renee’s readings, check out her official Youtube channel.

Hey everyone!

Today I wanted to show off some of the gorgeous photos some fans have been posting on Instagram of their collections of Demon Cycle books. Without further ado, lets take a look!

Nothing is quite as satisfying as seeing a series of books all side by side, and these fans did it in such gorgeous ways!

Thanks to Maq_uch, debbsupertrampreads, shattered_shelves, douglasmetzker, zauberhaftelesetunde, and buecher_globus from Instagram for their awesome photos of their collections, if you want to see more from them, check out their Instagrams.

Hey everyone!

The other day we got to see someones clever idea to ward their garden to protect it from demons, but you know what else needs protection when the demons come? Your books! The loss of knowledge is a heavy toll, so its best to find a way to protect it. That’s exactly what one fan did!

Check out this awesome Warded Bookshelf made by JamieLinman on Twitter!

This is such an awesome way to customize a bookshelf. The Wards look clean and spaced perfectly, and they look spectacular against that wood grain! Thanks to Jamie for sharing this with us!

Hey everyone!

I’m excited to show off todays fanart, because Peat himself commissioned it!

The talented Jornorinn on Twitter crafted this gorgeous illustration of Renna Bales.

Take a look!

This is an absolutely stunning piece! I love the soft glow of the fireflies, the sheen off of Rennas blade, and the intense look on her face! It takes a huge amount of skill to make this kind of illustration, and Jornorinn absolutely nailed it!
