On Supernatural Underground Now: Worldbuilding in Fantasy #5 — The Liveship Traders Series by Robin Hobb
This year on Supernatural Underground I’m celebrating the awe-inspiring and downright inspirational worldbuilding of Fantasy literature, because worldbuilding is the vital glue that binds the different strands of the genre together. And also because, quite simply, fantasy worldbuilding is So Much FUN!
Year of Worldbuilding in Fantasy # 5: “Ship of Magic” & the Liveship Traders Series by Robin Hobb
.
Oh yes, in case I didn’t mention it, there are sentient ships and sea serpents, pirates and dragons, as well as traders, slavers and great powers all contending in the mix, aka much that will appeal to a range of avid readers. 🙂

A firm favourite though I haven’t re-read the series for some time now. I still have so many boxes of books to unpack since moving into this house but at least I know where my sci-fi and fantasy books are now since sorting them and getting the labels where I can see them. Hopefully, the rest of the winter will be spent reading my way through all my old favourites once I had in this dang last assignment.
I hear you, Jacqui, re books in boxes: still!! Happy winter reading. 🙂
