Lisa Feld asked Lois McMaster Bujold:

Not to be one of those annoying fans who asks when the next book is due when the last is scarcely out the door, but might we expect a third Penric collection with the 7th, 8th, and 9th novellas, and if so, when?

Lois McMaster Bujold
A third collection on paper is certainly possible, and hoped-for, but it can't happen till Subterranean Press's really quite short term of exclusive license for the last story runs out. Which is "Masquerade in Lodi", probably to be published as a limited hardcover by SubPress sometime this coming winter. (I've seen the preliminary cover art.) So no third collection before 2023.

I have a nice series title ready for it, anyway -- Penric's Labors.

Meanwhile, all three collections -- Penric's Progress, Penric's Travels and Penric's Labors -- are available now for foreign language translation sales. With the novel to join them soon, for a tidy package.
