RotE Timeline (spoilers all books)

[Farseer]

I think we should have a whole new topic for figuring out the ROTE timeline. Anyone brave enough to start it?

Okay. As we have been talking abut the timeline in various threads for a while now AND Robin has recently offered the following after being questioned about the timeline on her site, I thought I'd finally give it its own thread. From here we may be able to add things to the wiki from time-to-time as well.

Not sure about anyone else but even this little bit from Robin helped clear up a few things we've discussed previously eg where Blue Boots fit into the scheme of things.

Chronologically, of course, the trilogies are fairly easy to put in order:

Farseer Trilogy
Liveship Traders
Tawny Man
Rain Wild Chronicles

As for the shorter stories, Homecoming would be before Farseer Trilogy.

The others are not as firmly fixed in a certain time.
Blue Boots Falls during the Assassin’s Apprentice/ Royal Assassin time
Words Like Coins The same time period as Blue Boots.
The Inheritance Predates Ship of Magic
Cat’s Meat I think it would predate Assassin’s Apprentice.

Hope that helps. Most of the short stories are not tied directly to any events that fasten them to a certain time in history.

Robin

As for other timeline discussions eg the one we were having regarding the timeline of the RWC vs Tawny Man, ah, possibly I can try and bring them all over here, even if it means cross-threading?
