Don't Mess With The Faery

I have permission to share my UK cover!

Photobucket

[livejournal.com profile] cesario accused me of selling my soul for diabolical purposes to get Brian Froud as my cover artist, but it was pure serendipity, honest. Seems like he just happened to have this fierce-looking white-haired teenaged faery in his portfolio...

Anyway, the final product has an iridescent overlay, so it will be even more cool and shiny when I get the finished proofs in the mail -- which are supposed to be arriving soon. Yay!

Beautiful - I absolutely love it, congratulations ;)
The overlay sounds fantastic!

OMG. That is SO COOL. It isn't what I expected at all, but it far surpasses anything I imagined.

Oh. Oh, wow. If that were mine, I would faint with happiness.

Nice! Kudos to whoever did the type design, too; it's classy! You must be dizzy with excitement!

Yay again! So gorgeous! She has the best expression on her face. :D

Damn, that's good. It immediately establishes character and identity for the book. You know that you are not going to read a pale imitation of someone else. In fact (not that I am saying there is the slightest chance), but it would be a surprise to any reader if any book with such a cover turned out to be boring.

OMB, I want!

[identity profile] psychic-serpent.livejournal.com 2008-07-17 03:02 pm (UTC)(link)
Beautiful! Now you're making me want to go on Amazon.uk when the book is available, rather than being content with an American edition (which is how I also got my UK HP books).

[identity profile] sarah-prineas.livejournal.com 2008-07-17 03:18 pm (UTC)(link)
That's AMAZING!!!! Congratulations! Wow.

Eeeee, shiny! I didn't think this cover could be any more awesome, but apparently it can & will be. ^.^
