Martyn Stanley Thanks for voting everyone! :) Food for thought definitely! The most logical character to feature WITH Fox would be Vexis, and that might mean giving Vexis two covers in row. Korhan will probably feature on Book 6: Emergence, perhaps with Vashni. Does that help you decide?

Elisa Well, I love Vashni, but she's been the cover girl twice now, so I'm going with the character with the most significant part to play.

Plus I'm fairly confident Vashni will be on the cover of book 6 with Korhan. Hope that isn't a spoiler! :P

Keith Anyone who isn't wearing a leather bikini. :-P

That was a very specific outfit referring to a unique event in book 3. Leather Bikini's are generally not the thing to wear in Torea... Unless you're a woman entering the Blood Trials! :P

Yay! Thank you for the teaser... I'm even more excited to read it now.

Martyn Stanley Well you've got book 5 to come first! If I can finish it! I'm writing a part I've been planning for literally months at the moment. Hoepfully it should get easier from this point because I'll be back to covering only 4 separate stories. Recently it'd actually extended briefly to 5! After this section, I'm either going back to Vashni, or the Companions (What's left of them!) then I guess It'll be back to Briem!

Problem is, any fantasy book with a lady in a bikini-like getup on the cover is going to get characterized as a certain type of book. The wtfbadfantasycovers blog ( http://wtfbadfantasycovers.tumblr.com/ ) has a large category called Bikini Girl Thursday. :-P


message 9: by Martyn (new)

Martyn Stanley Haha! Context Keith! Sometimes there's more to an image than meets the eye. The 3rd book doesn't fall within the stereotype of bikini-clad heroines.

However, you raise a valid point! I suppose I'm glad book 3 is the only instance I can foresee of having a scantily clad woman on one of my actually quite feminist fantasy books!
