I swear, I have chills just looking at this. That's my name. On my book. I was about 11 or 12 when I first realised I wanted to be a writer. Twenty years on and I'm literally watching my dream come true piece by piece.
I love this cover. The model fits my description of Nathan Shepherd, and he's got such an "I'm going to kick your ass" look on his face! I absolutely love the cityscape along the bottom, too. I've always been a big fan of photo models used on book covers, and the dark, urban landscape sets the scene perfectly, both with Nathan's face sitting over "his city" and the buildings looming threateningly behind him.
Thank you to everyone at WiDo, and to the cover artist. This is the best birthday present I could have received.
Oooh, fantastic!
ReplyDeleteWow, this is stupendous! I get the sense of a strong and interesting MC and a gritty story he has to tell...
DeleteCongratulations on the cover- how well I remember what a heady thing it is to be looking at one's cover when it first appears.
Thanks Audrey!
