Crashland cover

Hello! The cover of Crashland, the sequel to Twinmaker, has just been revealed to the world. I'm really happy with it--very pleased that Clair gets her moment in the spotlight. I hope you'll like it too!

I'm going to try to post it below. Here's hoping it works. :-)

Quotes by Sean Williams (?)

“With that, the hologram did dissolve and PROXY returned to his normal appearance and size.
"Ugh," the droid said with a shudder. "I hate being him."
The apprentice stood, deep in thought and nodded. "I think he does too.”
― Sean Williams, The Force Unleashed

“Metaphorically speaking," she said with a smile, "'if' is the smallest word in the Galactic Standard lexicon, yet it stands between us and our greatest dreams. Let it be a bridge, Shigar. It's time you crossed it. I will be waiting for you on the other side.”
― Sean Williams
