One of my LiveJournal commenters (thanks, geniusofevil!) mentioned that the cover art for Game of Cages is on the Amazon.com site, which I’m taking as explicit permission to post the art here:
Whoo-hoo!
Mysterious house? Check. Red lightning? Check. Windbreaker and t-shirt in the dead of winter? Check. A facial expression that suggests someone needs some killin’? Check-check!
And, because this image is a little small, the text under my name says: “Author of Child of Fire, a Publishers Weekly best book of the year”
Thank you, generous PW peoples!
Side notes: the polish of Man Bites World continues–actually, it’s picking up pace as certain distracting domestic sleep issues have been resolving. Also, I received the contract for the Russian sale yesterday. I’ll read through them tonight and mail them back tomorrow. Then, more money!
I’ll call this a good day (so far).
UPDATE: I uploaded a larger image so it’s easier to see.
Looks great! I like it a lot.
Whoo-hoo!
Yeup, very slick… especially like the red lightning. Such a great image, yet I can’t recall ever seeing red lightning in cover art or anywhere else, before. Veddy nice!
Nice! Was the model for the guy on the cover, the same guy as for the first one? Pretty rugged.
We can’t wait to buy one & see what happens next! The book I mean :)
Ronson, yeah, I’m really happy with it.
Allison, this guy on the first cover looked like the friend I’d based the character on, but this one doesn’t. That’s not a big deal; all I lose out on is a fun talking point for interviews.
Heck yes! I like that cover.
And, hey, can’t beat that blurb under your name with a stick!
Not even a big stick! (Not that I’d try.)
I can’t wait. Looks like a “swashbuckler of the millenium” on the cover.
Way to go Harry!
