Pericles Re-Covered
I’ll keep this one brief, because it’s a busy day.
For a while, I’ve thought The Pericles Conspiracy needs a new cover. The original one (that I made) is ok and looks nice but doesn’t really portray the genre and theme/tone of the book correctly. So a few months ago, I hired Trevor Smith to make a new one. For those of you who may not know, Trevor is the artist who won the grand prize in the Writers and Illustrators of the Future contest for 2013. So yeah, he’s well beyond good. 🙂
Anyway, long story short, the job is done and the new cover is here. And it is much, much, much better than the old one. To wit,
The old:
The new:
Pretty awesome, right? 🙂
The cover’s been updated everywhere the book is available, with the exception of the print version. Just waiting on the proof copy’s arrival to finish that step. Good times, good times.
Are you planning a follow on book the Pericles conspiracy
Short answer is yes. Longer answer is I’m not sure exactly when it will be done. I have two different projects in the oven right now. But it’s become clear to me that there is quite a desire for a sequel. So that will be the next thing I get going on, as soon as I finish the projects I’m in the middle of now.
