I really need to put up a Frequently Asked Question page for this site!
But, until I get that done, I'm going to answer this frequently asked question right here.
How Can You Get a Signed Book?
There are two excellent sources. The first is for a book that is going to be released soon, such as the 25th Anniversary edition of Assassin's Apprentice. If you would like a pristine copy of this, signed by me and shipped to you in absolutely perfect condition, then The Signed Page is for you. Shawn has been operating that service for years now, and you will find there books by many SF and fantasy authors, all signed for you. For instance, right now you can get books signed by Joe Abercrombie or Brent Weeks. But if you explore the site, you will find many others including some by me! These books sell out, so if you want one, you shoudl order it.
But suppose you want a paperback signed or yes, you want the 25th anniversary edition of Assassin's Apprentice. Then I suggest you visit Seattle's University Book Store site. In the search bar, put Robin Hobb. Up will pop an extensive list of my books. Choose the one or ones that you want. As you complete the order form, note that you will see a 'comments' box. In that box, note that you would like the book signed. The store will send that book or books down to their Tacoma branch, I will drive to town and sign it, and it will be shipped to you. Pretty easy for all of us!
And thank you for asking!
