Hey everyone!

Today is the first day of Worldcon 2019! Peat will be attending, and you’ll be able to see him today and throughout the con at a signing and several panels. Take a look at our schedule for the con!

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

If you’re going to Worldcon, please feel free to come by one of these events! If there are any changes/additions to Peat’s schedule, we’ll be listing them on his Appearances page, so make sure to check there.
We’re super excited to see you all there!

Hey everyone!

Do you all remember the gorgeous limited edition Painted man I told you about a while ago? Originally it was planned to release during Worldcon 2019, but we have the luck of it arriving a bit early!

This new version is to celebrate 10 years since the release of The Painted Man. It’s the 10th Anniversary Special Edition deluxe hardback, illustrated by Dominik Broniek.

If you want one of these beauties for your own shelf, you can get them now, here on Amazon!

Hey everyone!

Do you all remember a certain fan who did an awesome Leesha cosplay from a previous post?

Well that the fantastic cosplayer Crimson_mhysa released more photos of her cosplay after the initial reveal, and now I get to show you a whole new set of photos from that same cosplay. Take a look!

How absolutely stunning! I love the sort of regal personality Crimson’s Leesha gives off. Also the fact that she can throw an axe into a target in a way that would rival Gared is amazing! Thanks so much to Crimson_mhysa for sharing these with us!
