UPS delivered a box today and I was surprised to find in it my author’s copies for Nathaniel Fludd, Beastologist: THE BASILISK’S LAIR. A full six weeks early! I usually receive them right on the pub date. Hm. I wonder if that means they’ll ship to stores early? I'll keep you posted. I guess that also means I ought to have another contest.
Either way, I cannot even say how much I love the design aesthetic Houghton Mifflin and Kelly Murphy have brought to this project. It has exceeded my wildest dreams.
And also, here is the cover for Book
I love, love, love the ominous dragon overhead and the warm toned sky. Kelly Murphy is a freaking geNiUS!! ::ahem:: Excuse me. I get a tad carried away.
* I am starting to get slightly disoriented with having one coming out, one in production, and one I just turned in. Pretty much a Who's On First moment.

So glad you're looking forward to it, artsymommachic!

It must be exciting to hold your new book right out of the box and in your hand for the first time! Congratulations and yes, book 3 is absolutely beautiful.
