Emma Mann-Meginniss commented on Abomination

Love #3 on the first list, but the new one might be my favorite.  Both leave are intriguing but still leave a little bit to the imagination.  I love the beetle but the woods are so spooky... can't go wrong!

    OMG COVERS

    Readers, backers, countrymen! I promised you updates and I intend to deliver like a crazy person! Let's talk covers! As we mentioned during funding, the amazing Jason Gurley is designing the final cover for the published hardcover edition of Abomination. Jason is the brilliant designer of many beautiful books, not least of which Hugh Howey's best-sellers Wool and Sand. Jason has officially retired from the world of book design but agreed to come out of retirement for one last mission. He has already dived right in, working up some preliminary concepts, which I'm thrilled to share with you here. These are just early roughs with a lot of work still to do, but the intention is to narrow these five candidates down to a final winner and then finesse the hell out of it. I certainly have my favorites among this bunch but I want to hear yours as well! Don't be shy about posting in the comments with your thoughts on the preliminary designs below...

      His face spattered with the blood of the beast, the guard captain glared at Aethelred as Alfred came down from his throne and marched across the room to confront the priest, who had not stopped smiling during the whole bloody episode, and who smiled still.  “Did you enjoy the demonstration, Sire?” asked the Archbishop.  “I did not,” hissed the King through gritted teeth, struggling to hold back his anger.  Aethelred’s smile arched wider. “The Danes will enjoy it even less, I suspect.”

      Alfred was tired. It had been a long, hard war, and though he had won it, he had barely rested since, knowing that the peace would not last long. For an English king, he had learned, it never did. There was always another war.
