Finished the Cover!

I’m pretty pleased with how the cover for Born of Ashes, empyrean book 2, has turned out. I wish she featured more prominently, but my feedback crew (and I) didn’t like the way it looked with Arathusa’s wings not fully visible. Even so I think she looks pretty badass.

Now I’m working on the blurb for the back cover. Summarizing a ~70,000 word book into ~100 words that gives you an idea what it’s about without spoiling the whole story is hard. It’s honestly the hardest part of the whole process for me.

I’m also working on maps to include in this and future empyrean series books. You’ll be traveling to a few more realms you didn’t visit in Brimstone Born, and I think a map might be helpful. Once the Empyrean map is finished I plan to make them for each individual realm as well. I’ll be putting those up on the Super Secret Page of Awesome as they’re finished (gain access to that by signing up for the newsletter ~>).

What do you think, is there anything that needs tweaking on the cover? Let me know!

How stupid is this action movie? If you know anything about avionics, you’ll be working hard to suspend your disbelief.
