Two best friends, a country bar, a famous burger and a bloodstained floor.
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...
Congratulations. Can't wait to read the whole thing!
I think #3 is the best, but swip-swap the text with the style of #1.
