Cover Reveal
The year is ending, and 2025 is beckoning, full of surprises and news! I often speak to Ty Tracey, mainly through texts, phone calls and late night messages pinned to owls feet. He’s busy concentrating on multiple things throughout the year and continues to spin dark and fantastic narratives. He continues to work on a project, but there is yet to be a time frame for its initial announcement. I’ve seen some of the work, and it’s up there with 3 Days in Ashford and The Corroding. Shivers down my spine and a awe at how he spins words into emotions dread and fear. Feel free to check out his Facebook page for updates or his website to learn more.
Now I have some news for the fantasy lovers out there! Maiden of Storms, The Conspiracy of Crows Book Two officially has a release date of Tuesday, 01/21/25! The book will be as big as Bastards of Liberty, if not slightly longer. The writing is tighter, as my new editor at Space Mage Press, Kavin, has done tremendous work on my prose, cleaning it up and helping me add more flavor to the world of Vineland.
I’m grateful to SFF Insiders, Author Steve Hugh Westenra part of the Before We Go Blog, Author Ciara Hartford, the fine folks at Willow Wraith Press, Jam Reads Blog, and FanFiAddict for their help and support. When time allows, take a moment to check out each of their work. You’ll find some great books, great reviews, and grow your TBR.
Today, I’d like to show you my brand new cover for Maiden of Storms by Dawid at Best Selling Covers.
Dawid, who created the cover for Bastards of Liberty, has done great work for a large collection of authors, and I’m so lucky that he finds time to do my fantasy covers. The idea we came up with comes from a mixture of protest art and the fundamental ideas of what a fantasy cover represents and can expand upon.
He is set to do the final book in the Conspiracy of Crows Trilogy when I finish it but first lets see what he’s done for book two…
The news of the Olde Ridgewatch Massacre ripples across the city-states of Vineland. Newspapers write disturbing details of Holy Imperium soldier’s attack on unarmed commoners outside a tavern. Secret meetings occur, subversive pamphlets spread, and thought-provoking books are passed around in back alleys.
Prince Damon moves forward with his Triumphant Masquerade to celebrate his loosely affiliated holdings in the city-states of Vineland while rumors of a storm grow west of the Blightbriar Mountains.
An expeditionary force investigates a burnt-down manor, and the Bastards of Liberty move towards revenge and rebellion, gathering merchants, slavers, and commoners to their cause, hoping a document of paper unifies them against the choking gripe of a sovereign bent on domination.
