Monthly Update! So, my publication date is now 11/1/2016. Much closer. I have 3 days left to finish my line edits. I’m on schedule. That stuff is boring. 

WE HAVE COVERS TO VOTE ON!!!

Okay. Here is the deal. Tweet me @crankybolt or email me, or even comment here. Each of these covers is a design direction. 

Not the final cover. By any stretch. These are just looking at which avenue we should head down. 

Option #1

This cover is filled with arcane imagery in an organic cover design where text blurs with the artwork. If you think we should head in this direction, even with different colors and would like to see more usages. Vote for this one. 

Option #2

This cover is closer to the original cover art. The intent of this design path is to create something that is more like an arcane tome. A spellbook one could hold. If you like this direction. Vote here!

Option #3

This one is the most off putting at first. Yet it’s important to know that this is just a place holder for an Illustrated cover with a character (Mike) in his green trenchcoat with the black sun on the horizon. Or of his coat tattered on an I-beam above the Chicago Skyline. I know it may be hard to visualize, but if you like that design direction. Vote here!

Option #4:

Don’t like any? Then say so!

Send me your gut reactions and your initial feedback! Tweet them out, email me, or throw paper rocks at me with notes on them.
