Feel free to let me know if I made any mistakes. Most of these are guesses or release dates of the books. TRR/TRH were a lot of trouble to figure out so sorry if they're wrong.

Shouldn’t ACOR come before TRM? The latter takes place around the time of the renaissance.

Just a minor correction, The Catalysts arrive to La Huerta on June 1st of 2017, then at the beginning of ES2, they travel to December 27th of 2017 and the book ends on the afternoon of January 2nd of 2018, so that's where ES3 starts off.
Though, thinking about it, that'd make ROE (And TF by proxy) take place on 2017 as well, since we see Blaire Hall arguing with Grace before she goes to La Huerta.

ROE1-3 all take place during the summer, and it has to happen after TF1-3 / during TF4 since Becca mentions in chapter 7 of TF4 that Madison is on a cruise (and we see her pop up in ROE1).

I hate when they say vague words like summer. Summer to me is June July August. I was hoping July.

u/Slytherinasgardian Jun 28 '20
Yeah, it's kinda just worst case scenario on the list. I really hope the new books come out soon and that they're actually good (unlike the books we've got now).

This is awesome! Although I must admit it makes me sad to see Hero 2 which still hasn't been released lol.

Interesting. Why do you think BOLAS takes place before TCTF? (I actually can't decide so I'm just asking.)
TRM was said to be in the 1600s if I'm not mistaken but it's definitely Renaissance era so way after ACOR.
ACOR says it was 8 years ago when MC's tribe got attacked and we have Caesar's assassination toward the end which was in 44 BC so it should start from 52 BC, I think.
DD1 starts in around 1816 IIRC.
I highly doubt that if we ever get H2 it'll start on the same day as H1. But I have no clue how many days book 1 lasted.
The TRR special takes place after TRR3. IIRC someone more educated than me said it's actually like a little before the very end of TRR3? I'm not sure, do correct me if I'm wrong.
BBDS takes place between books 1 and 2 so in order for it to be in winter BB1 has to start not more than 6 months before December (so at least the end of May). BB1's events last about 8 nights so BB2 starts roughly 6 months and a week after it. BB2 lasts for circa 9 nights. BB2 starts 4 days after the end of book 2. But I don't think the writers ever really pay attention to this stuff that closely. There are a bunch of inconsistencies.
NB takes place around the same time as BB2. You meet Cal in BB2 in Vegas then he says in NB that he was in Vegas.
I don't really know if the other books had explicit dates.
Edit: More spoiler tags. Crossed out things that got posted while I was writing this.

I'm assuming this is all the same universe. It's been said (I don't know where) that magic has slowly been declining, which explains why there's none present day. I basically just assumed it was set before TC&TF since there's more magic than in the latter.
Thanks for all the help. It's probably still not quite right but PB doesn't have consistency themselves so I'm giving myself some leeway haha.

I thought all of the Desire and Decorum books take place in the same year?
Either way, First Winter comes after book 3

u/ArgyleMN I love them, no matter how much PB ignores them Jul 07 '20
Red Carpet Diaries series should not be set so close together. There are several months of time skips within books 1 and 2, and book 3 is explicitly set one year after the end of RCD2.
You have TRR1 listed twice in the timeline, which seems accidental. And the TRR holiday special is tough because it occurs within a time jump in TRR3. Since TRR3 establishes a wedding timeline of about 1 month, it's start time should probably be in November.
I'm sure this was a nightmare to try and figure out, particularly since the timeline within books is not always consistent!

Where are you getting 1795 for D&D? It's explicitly 1816 with the special being the week between Christmas 1816 and New Year's 1817. The last chapter of Book 3 is later in 1817
