I think it’s a graphic novel deal in the works. I hope! Re-reading Innkeeper is getting me through ACL + meniscus surgery recovery. On Day 4, so things are better than Day 1 (which was horrible).

I had knee meniscus surgery in July. Do your therapy! And read all of the fun things.

I’ve done that surgery – it gets easier I promise!! As someone else noted, make sure you do your exercises several times a day, see PT frequently, and use lots of ice!!
Cinderssays
Speedy recovery. Just finished re-reading Innkeeper 1-4 for the Nth time and wondered if anyone else is hungry for the scene where Maud is questioned about riding the Attura and Arland realizes what a prize he’s been sitting on? Sorry, that was a bit of a run-on!

What’s a webtoon?
Tasha Asays
Online comics/graphic novels basically. Mostly Asian created as a number of them are based on Asian novels. Made popular internationally through smart phones! Bunch of apps that allow you to read them online.
Often times episodes will come out periodically but you can pay “coins” to see episodes sooner.
Google Webtoons and you will find a treasure trove of awesomeness to read! 🙂
Maria R.says
Thank you for unconfusing me. Oh my, a new thing about such an interesting series. Hurrah ????
kommiesmomsays
If you love the absurd, take a look at Girl Genius – a web comic by Phil & Kaja Foglio. They have at least years of posting 3 times a week. (Sorry, I’m too lazy to look it up, but many, many.) If I remember correctly, it’s girlgenius.net.
Phil is a long time comic artist and the series started out in print, but later went digital. (I actually started out with the print versions and still get the hardcopy “novel” published each year.)
Weysays
They have been posting it since 2002. It’s a steampunk extravaganza. I love it.
Pattisays
It is so wonderful!
K Dsays
yes…. but as a serial it just keeps going and going… I love it, but sometimes when I go back looking for information I’m shocked SHOCKED! to see how many years ago that material was published. The story started in 2002, we’re coming up on the 19th anniversary and there are so many subplots in play… at 150 pages a year it’s going to be 2060 before we know how the Winslow fits into Agatha’s story.
Ibrisays
Webtoon is a website for comics, most comics there are in longstrip format ie you scroll down to read through a chapter because the next image is below the current one. (Good format for smartphone reading I suppose but also how I read manga, though that is part habit from using it to avoid load times.) Longstrip often is made up off rather long images, the image linked has a high length to width ratio which is why I am guessing everyone is guessing webtoon.

I remember when that guy who does Rivers of London started also putting out graphic novels. At first I was grumpy that part of the story was outside of the novels. Then I read one. Wow. You really can tell different kinds of stories with just a few words (compared to a novel) but with lots of illustrations. This just should be fun!
Well I must have failed the test, because my first thought when I saw the picture was ” Oh, boy! We’re going to find out what happened to Dina’s parents”

This inn does not match the description of Dina’s Gertrude Hunt in “Clean Sweep”.

If you’re making a graphic novel, PLEASE don’t depict the females as having enormous breasts, wearing low cut tops and showing enormous amounts of cleavage. I was very disappointed when a female author of urban fantasy produced a graphic novel, and all the females had enormous breasts, showing enormous cleavage. Those characters were not depicted that way in her print novels. It was probably appealing if you were a 13-year-old boy, but I don’t think most of her readers were 13-year-old boys. I lost respect for that author after her graphic novel.

I’ve seen you at several online author events, and you’ve always looked lovely. I would not be surprised to see a graphic novel version of Harper Larvo wearing skin tight clothes with very low neckline tops, oozing cleavage. I hope I don’t see Graphic novel versions of Dina or Nevada wearing the same clothing. But, they are your characters, it is your decision. I have loved everything you have written.

Well, i trusted you and clicked on the click me prompt which I don’t do.
Thank you, Ilona Andrews for the fantastic picture.
Denise Neill says
I just jumped and screeched so loud my husband comes in and then rolls his eyes. He turns mumbling about my book addiction.
Amrita Rao says
I would absolutely buy every graphic novel from any of your series, if any were to be released!
If not, it’s still a gorgeous graphic that I’m in love with.
Joseph A Delinski Jr says

Wow! Love the image. Webtoon and maybe a graphic novel compilation…? (Not sure how webtoons work.) Would be amazing!!! Cannot wait to see how the images match what is already in my imagination.
PSS says
Just wondering, is this the project with one of the kids? I just remember a post several months back mentioning they were going to work on a book project with one of the kids, but I haven’t seen a mention of it since. It seems like something the kids would be interested in.
Gaëlle from France says
Hooooooooooooooo !!!!!!!!!
Alicia says
Is this a THING? Is it a NEW THING???? or is it awesome art work that mostly lives in someone brain and we won’t get more.
PPlor says

Looks nice, from the length to width ratio I assume the comments that are guessing a web thing are right.

Aiden says
IS THAT A WEBTOON????
William B says
That certainly got the BDH fired up.
Sabrina says
Now, for the less up to date members of the BDH, which I count myself amongst: what _is_ a webtoon? Besides, obviously, awesome and amazing and online? ????
Moderator R says
I’m neither confirming or denying anything here, hehe.
But webtoons are digital comics, in very simple terms ????. They are very popular atm and there are several platforms that host them. Ilona wrote about them previously https://ilona-andrews.com/2021/entertainment-roundup/
Sabrina says
Thanks ModR!

Squee! The picture is so beautiful and mysterious…
Do I dare hope for a new animated book or a pre-quel with just a little more back story on our favorte characters Inn Keeper family?
Ray Craine says
DO IT!! DO IT. DO IT. DO! IT!!!!!
Robin says
Really cool would be if this were part of the proposal to Industrial Light and Magic to make a movie; no a movie series, based on Innkeeper…
If you’re gonna dream, dream Big!!!
Or maybe the folks who made the Harry Potter movies?
Suggestions for who could play Her Grace?
Patricia Schlorke says
Helen Murin would make a great Her Grace. ????
Patricia Schlorke says
It’s suppose to be Helen Mirren. I couldn’t think when I wrote the above reply. After today’s work, I’m surprised I can even think. 😀
Cris Reads says
Helen Mirren, IA have suggested so let’s dream big ????
Gina G says
Or is it a time jump forward and it’s Dina and Sean’s child playing with those rainbow bubbles ????
Jukebox says
SQUEEEEEE! Is it…? Could it possibly…?
Carolin says
Whatever it is it’s beautiful and sure to capture the Imagination.
Tom says
Whatever it is, it’s a beautiful image – whoever the artist is, is talented!
Cris Reads says
Chiii ???? Take my money & kudos ????
Christina says
Wheee! I can’t wait for whatever it is!
Christine Angulo says
I don’t know where to post this but wanted to ask if there is a possible that Julie will run into Red now that she’s older and a flare is due soon? That would be so exciting since she’s now grown into her own person. Would be interesting to know what Reds been up to with Morrigan
Lindy says
OMG YES YES YES YES YES WEBTOON YES PLEASE SO EXCITED! PLEASE BE REAL. PLEASE PLEASE PLEEEEEEEEEASE.
Nadia says
Reading through the comments, i think i’m the one of the few that maybe notice the word ‘were’ being used. Happy for any Innkeeper content 🙂
Mellany says
(gasp!) Sqeeeeeeeee!!
Sivi says
Have no idea if any of the guesses are right, or if you both were having a release the hounds (aka BDH) moment and just put that lovely image of Gertrude Hunt in front of us.
That’s a gorgeous image.
Will love to see who’s guesses are correct.
Christina G. says
This gives me life
That is all.
Sharon Barrett says
OH. MY.
Mud says
That is very special. And rather eerie.
pete says
I remember when that guy who does Rivers of London started also putting out graphic novels. At first I was grumpy that part of the story was outside of the novels. Then I read one. Wow. You really can tell different kinds of stories with just a few words (compared to a novel) but with lots of illustrations. This just should be fun!
SHANELLE DEJOURNETT says
SQUEEEEEE!!!!! SQUEEEEEEE!!!!! *shuddering inhale* SQUEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!
That is all. Carry on.
Sjik says
Óooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh
Pollyanna Hopson says
Well I must have failed the test, because my first thought when I saw the picture was ” Oh, boy! We’re going to find out what happened to Dina’s parents”

This is amazing! I’d always pictured the house looking something like this https://whstarkhouse.org/explore/house/ a true Texas victorian showplace.
So similar to the artist’s drawing-can’t wait to see what’s in store.
Lee Anne says
Anything Innkeeper is exciting. Even if I have to talk my son into teaching me how to read it (watch it?) LOL
AP says
Wow! So beautifully drawn!
Whatever it is, I’m excited to see the finished creation!
Thank you!

Would like to stay there myself.

Zephyr says
Oh. My. Gosh! (Enter the biggest squeal ever!) I can’t believe this! This sounds too good to be true!! This would be the most epic story to turn into a graphic novel/coloured manga! Take my money already! Anything for your stories + beautiful art!
Me says
I’m awake!
Abha Dhupkar says
Graphic novel?!! Yess to the nth degree!
mdy says
I literally gasped in amazement. And delight. Much delight.
Also noticed that the filename is CS-EP1_p1-copy-scaled.jpg
That would likely mean . . . Clean Sweep, Episode 1, Panel 1?
Ginka says
Great ilustration.
Uriel_39 says
WHAT, HOW, WHEN AND DID I MENTION WHEN???
OMG THIS LOOKS WOW!!! DETAILS PLZ!!!
Travin says
Me…oh please mean your ready for the next Innkeepers serial book and starting soon. Oh graphic novel maybe bottom of picture, oh I guess I can buy that if that is what your doing. Reading comment okay no idea what that is, but if done by Ilona Andrews I guess I can figure it in, somehow…after all you got me to order from Amazon for a book. Regardless, hope everything is going well for you and family….fingers still crossed for next innkeeper book
Moderator R says
Hey Travin,
Please see here for the latest updates on the next Innkeeper ????, probably expected around the winter holidays https://ilona-andrews.com/2021/kd-answers-yay/
Travin says
Lol… it’s snowing close enough to winter for me…thanks for info, and hope you too are having a good one
Sherri says
? I am really confused. I see KD q&a on that link but don’t see any Innkeeper info-is it in the comments?
Moderator R says
Info about schedule plans can be found at the end of the blog article ????

Graphic novel of Innkeeper. Color me interested !

I need more Inkeepers, just to keep living!!! I need this like oxygen…Squee!!!
Elaine says
Hurrah!
Diana says
OMG
Heather says
I AM SO EXCITED! If this is a test my heart will be very sad.
Naenae says
Awesome!!! If this is a comic book…Can there be an online version of this. The solo print comics always run out of stock/are difficult to get 10 years later. Thanks
Tasha says
SQUUUUEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!! ^_^
Bernie says
Gertrude Hunt: Episode 1: The Arrival of the Lawn Orphans.
none says
webtoon yesss
Judy says
This inn does not match the description of Dina’s Gertrude Hunt in “Clean Sweep”. Therefore, I expect it is a drawing of Dina’s parents inn and the beginning of the newest Innkeeper story, in which we will find out what happened to (and perhaps rescue) Dina’s parents. Can’t wait whatever format it will be!!!!
Sofi says
NO WAY!! NOOO WAYYY!!!
A MANHWA?!?!?!?!?!?
OH MY GOD!!

Hey Twiser,

(Carefully examines link before clicking)
Innkeeper graphic novel?
Where is the preorder link?
At work we get monthly phishing link test emails.
Click on one of them three times in 12 months and you lose your annual bonus.
Some of them are obvious, others can be really tricky.
Beth says
So very very funny!
Thank you!
Denise P says
If you’re making a graphic novel, PLEASE don’t depict the females as having enormous breasts, wearing low cut tops and showing enormous amounts of cleavage. I was very disappointed when a female author of urban fantasy produced a graphic novel, and all the females had enormous breasts, showing enormous cleavage. Those characters were not depicted that way in her print novels. It was probably appealing if you were a 13-year-old boy, but I don’t think most of her readers were 13-year-old boys. I lost respect for that author after her graphic novel.
Ilona says
::tries to hide her own ample chest and is not feeling self-conscious at all about big bosoms::
Moderator R says
:: ample chesticles hiding party::
Denise P says
I’ve seen you at several online author events, and you’ve always looked lovely. I would not be surprised to see a graphic novel version of Harper Larvo wearing skin tight clothes with very low neckline tops, oozing cleavage. I hope I don’t see Graphic novel versions of Dina or Nevada wearing the same clothing. But, they are your characters, it is your decision. I have loved everything you have written.
Wendy says
Graphic novel with innkeeper!!!! OMG!!! YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!
Ericka says
i’m torn. because on one hand, “YAY, NEW CONTENT” and on the other, my last favorite author started playing around with graphic novels and six years after his newest series premiered, we’re still waiting for book 2, with no inkling of a publication date.
Pristine says
OMG *squeeeeeee*
Michelle says
AHHHHHHHH!!!! A graphic novel? Internet graphic novel? Any of the above?! Oh I am so highly excited!
Andrea D Smith says
Everyone else is raving about webtoons and graphic novels. The true tragedy “to me” is running out of tea or beverage of choice. In our household while hubby is hoarding toilet paper, I’m ordering tea.
