*SPOILERS* 12th Reveal for Book 2 - The Backbone of the Story

Welcome everyone!

It's good to have you here this week. It's been a hectic one for me. I've had a lot of unexpected responsibilities this week due to a tragic loss in my family. We're still grieving, but hopefully soon, things will return to normal.

That aside, it's time for another reveal! The good news is all work is now finished on the covers and interiors of my book! That means, if I wanted, I could publish Book 2 today.

I'm not quite ready, though. First, I just want to give everything a rigorous second viewing. I want to make sure there are no silly mistakes on the covers or with the illustrations.

With my first book, my layout artist forgot to include the map for the paperback and hardback versions. I didn't discover this until I got my first physical proofs, which is way too late in the game to catch something of that nature.

So this time, I'm being much more deliberate.

Anyway, let's get to the reveal. This is your last chance to turn back before you see any spoilers:

I give you, The Spine!


I admit, I couldn't resist the play on words with "Backbone" in the title of this post. Anyway, the spine will give you a good idea about the color scheme and tone of the cover for The Huntsman and the Vampire. Also, the pine trees play a small but important role in the story. They represent a location Tristan will see in this book then return to again in the future. I'm really glad the cover artist was able to include them.

Anyway, I hoped you enjoyed this week's reveal. We are just weeks away from pre-orders. Please keep checking back as we get closer!

Peace,

-Troy
