    Post Help needed finding fantasy romance series

    Hi ,
    im looking for some new fantasy series' to read.. im looking for series similar to the farseer trilodgy by robin hobb.. the characteristics im looking for in the series are pretty much just a general adventure fantasy set in the middle ages but with some sort of romance theme to it as well and i would like it to be a series aswell... not just a single book...

    thank you very much

    I think the most obvious recommendation would be the Kingkiller Chronicles although its not finished yet. Like Hobb, its first-person POV and middle-age themed. Also if you haven't already, Hobb's other series are definitely worth checking out as well: Tawny man, LiveShip, Rain Wilds.

    I mean. . .

    Range of Ghosts by Elizabeth Bear
    One Hundred Thousand Kingdoms by NK Jemisin
    Devices and Desires by KJ Parker
    Tigana by Guy Kay
    The Princess Bridge by William Goldman
    The Emperor's Knife by Mazarkis Williams
    The Whitefire Crossing by Courtney Schafer
    Miserere by Teresa Frohock
    The Traitor's Daughter by Paula Brandon
    The Winds of Khalakovo by Bradley P. Beaulieu
    A Shadow in Summer by Daniel Abraham

    I could keep going, but that's a pretty good start?

    I would also take a look at:

    Sharon Shinn - Twelve Houses and Angelica series
    Christine Pope - Indie author whose Tales of the Latter Kingdoms series I am really enjoying
    Emily Gee - love her books but they are standalones other than her newest book which is going to be a series
    Moira J. Moore - I enjoyed her Heroes series quite a bit
    Sherwood Smith - Inda series is wonderful
    Robin McKinley's books - though most are stand alone
    Lynn Kurland's Nine Kingdomes series

    Hope you find something you can enjoy

    Try Lois McMaster Bujold's "Sharing Knife" series and her Chalion series. I thoroughly enjoyed them and reread them from time to time.

    Consider Cinda Williams Chima's "Seven Realms" series. Good stuff.
