Warleader, my short story that acts as a prequel to Rise and Fall, the first book in the Blood and Tears Trilogy officially has a cover!  And it’s an awesome cover if I do say so myself.  I couldn’t be happier with the way it turned out.  In fact, I’ve had to force myself to stop looking at it.  Perfect color, tone, font, etc.

























I can’t take the credit for its look though.  I gave a graphic artist named Brooke White of Sprout Studio in Houston, Texas, (she’s also my cousin) the jumbled vision of the cover I had in my head. She managed to make sense of it, put it all together, and make it work.  She’ll be doing all the covers for this series which will have a similar theme.  She’s hoping to begin work on the cover for Rise and Fall next week so stay tuned!

If you’re interested in procuring her services, please contact her at the following:

    This cover is legit.

  2. Nice cover. Really, really nice. Love the blue background and how it contrasts with the red of the blood.

    Definitely one of the better covers I've seen of late, and I just happen to be shopping around for someone to do three covers for me. Guess I'll be dropping her an e-mail.

  3. Mike - Absolutely.

    Thanks for stopping by Doug. Glad you liked it. I know I'm excited to see the next cover. I hope you and Brooke are able to work something out.
