There's good news, and not so great news.  (Don't worry, the good news is better.)

Let's start with the not-so-great news:  Unfortunately, TERMINUS will not hit the bookshelves this Christmas, as I had hoped.  I wish I had a better explanation, other than I thought I had the correct time frame.  But apparently, the sales and marketing departments of any publisher have the final say in these matters.  And yes, these things to matter for the success of a book, almost as much as how much readers love a book and tell all their friends about it.

The GOOD NEWS:

I am able to share with you the cover art for TERMINUS, which I think really captures the essence of the book, it's protagonist and some of its settings.  The cover was designed by Cory Clubb of Go Bold Designs.  And now, here is the cover and the back cover copy:

 HOW FAR MUST AN ANGEL FALL TO FIND HIS DESTINY?

Having witnessed one too many senseless deaths, Nikolai, a disillusioned Reaper 3rd Class, resigns his commission with the Angel Forces after a tedious century of gathering souls.

Immediately, another division recruits him with the promise of a more rewarding career, and issues his initial assignments: To bring down a few very dangerous threats to the human race.  In the process, Nikolai falls in love with one of his targets—Hope Matheson, a woman who will lead thousands astray.

Caught between conflicting agendas, Nikolai chooses to “fall” from his celestial state and become mortal in order to circumvent angel law and be with her.  But for angels and humans alike, things are not always as they appear.  Still a target, the threat against Hope’s life intensifies.

Now, in order to save her, Nikolai must rally the last remnants of his failing supernatural abilities to prevent her assassination, as well as the destruction of an entire city by a nuclear terrorist strike.

But his time and power are running out…
