The Undead Pool
The Undead Pool (Book 12)
No problem, Jaclyn. I didn't post the quote the first time someone else asked either. It's odd that that particular FB entry is gone when it seems that there are still plenty of older entries still there. *shrugs*

If they have their souls back they won't be as cruel (likely) as they will have that part of themselves back again. Also a lot of the insanity will be gone. So hopefully it would affect all of them I guess. I agree I hope it's more on demons and elves than just vamps as well

Either way, just letting you know what the book actually says. Newt told Al she would kill him if he slept with Rachel, and Rachel repeated this in her head in surprise.
Has anyone gotten word when the ARC's will be released? (I'M DYING OVER HERE!!!)It seems like ages ago when Kim had posted a spoiler, something about Ivy asking Rachel why there was a horse in their back yard and Trent in their shower. Oh the possibilities have been causing me to lose sleep lately!

OOH! Thanks for the cover update! I can't wait! What day next week?

hey melody... whee was this spoiler posted???
Zee wrote: "hey melody... whee was this spoiler posted???"Oh wow, I believe it was before the ARC of EA came out now that I think about it, so quite some time ago. If memory serves correctly, it was either a blog or facebook post about what she was writing that day, and her favorite tease line being something to the effect of Ivy asking Rachel why there was a horse in the backyard and Trent in their shower. I hope I'm not the only one who remembers this, otherwise I might just go crazy. :)
Found it Zee!!! It's on her Facebook, May 15th 2012.---Kim Harrison

Going over book 12 outline. Favorite early line. Ivy: Why is there a horse in our back yard? And what is Trent doing in our shower?---
So glad I am now certain that wasn't a hopeful figment of my imagination. :)
Ooh! I'm liking the cover so far. And since Rachel seems to wear something close the outfit on the cover at some point in the book, I'm dying to know what inspires this little number. :)
I think it's neat how she's going to slowly reveal small portions of the cover. Can't wait to see it. I wish, in fact, there was a way to buy prints of some of the covers to hang on the wall.So far liking the cover, looks like they're going with a blue and black theme. The outfit is unusual but cool so far, we'll see.
Blue... Is she by the water? Maybe next to Trent's boat?
Regina wrote: "Blue... Is she by the water? Maybe next to Trent's boat?"It looks to me like she's on top of a building but who knows? Trent's boat would work for me too. ;)
Omg, it totally looks like she's on a building. Actually, it looks a bit like NYC to me but I'm a New Yorker and everything looks like NYC.
Last year ARCs came out in as early as late September. I am assuming withing the next month we'll have ARCs. Now that I've FINALLY ran into some down time I am all kinds of ready for The Hollows!
Same here! I've been trying to keep my calendar very light and not setting and concrete appointments because the world as I know it will come to a sudden and screeching halt as soon as the ARC is available. Then I'll devour it as fast as I possibly can... And the. I'll read it again more slowly so I pick up what I missed. :) seriously, a Kim Harrison book release is considered a holiday in my house.
I'm so jealous of everyone getting ARC's!! I've promised myself a media blackout as soon as ARCs become available :(
Do u think it is a heliport? Looks like she is on top of a building.I think last year the ARC was available late October, but the book was getting published 1 month earlier, so maybe this year the ARC will come out in November?? I don't know, but I'm dying to put my hands on it!!!!!!!
A heliport with Carew tower in the background?!?! I've always wondered if we will ever get to see Rachel on a date at that restaurant!
Regina, I'm with you on the media blackout thing. I've ruined the last 2 books for myself because once I know the ARC's are out, I know that someone, somewhere, is going to talk. I just can't not click on a spoiler.
Regina wrote: "A heliport with Carew tower in the background?!?! I've always wondered if we will ever get to see Rachel on a date at that restaurant!"Well, sometimes you can find a little heliport on top of a building *shrug*
Tomorrow we will have a new clue!!
And of course if you're Trent Kalamack, and own most of the city, a heliport is a perfectly viable option for whisking you're demon-witch out of harms way. :)
Treeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeent!!!!!!!!yayyyyy, Trent is in the cover!!
Omg,finally we will get some "action"
Well all I can say is that my productivity is completely shot for the next 24 hours. Probably more like 48 if she does the woman's head tomorrow and the guy's on Thursdays :( If there ever was a time to stumble upon a magic time machine, it would be now!
Another piece of the cover!! Looks like a thousand dollar suit to me!!
OMG! It has to be Trent. Who else could it be???? I'm nervous about seeing the face though because there's always the very real possibility that the model will disappoint. Is it tomorrow yet?Also, how much do I love that Rachel is in a leather corset and (hopefully) Trent is in a $3000 dollar suit. lol
Regina wrote: "Another piece of the cover!! Looks like a thousand dollar suit to me!!"Yeah I am nervous that my mental image of him will be ruined forever but I would love to see what KH thinks he looks like.
Please just let there be pointed ears! :)
Oh, good point, Melody!
Kim has put the two pics together on her FB page...so pretty much the bottom half of the cover. I guess Rachel will be doing some magic with her (raised) right arm/hand.https://www.facebook.com/KimHarrisons...
it's DEFINITELY Trent! im sooooo excited!!!

A lot of people think it's Trent. Honestly it looks feminine to me with the shape but hands more male, but who knows. Could be him, or could be Ivy since vamps are a major story. Love the clues!!
Seems like a guys outfit though to me, but the shape seems feminine. Can be so misleading! A lot of people on the facebook page are thinking/hoping Al too but I dont see him wearing something like that and there's no gloves so I dont think it's him
I think is Trent, who else would appear in the front cover wearing a tailored suit??Makes sense because he has a very relevant part in the next two books.
It's either Trent or Quen... Unless Ivy has some lovely "man hands". :) very well manicured ones, which I'm doubtful that Quen would bother with. And Al always wears gloves.
Ivy probably has some pretty painted fingernails :)
Melody wrote: "Please just let there be pointed ears! :)"LOL! It would be hilarious if tomorrow's teaser was just a pointy ear.
I don't think it's Al either. Has Al ever even worn a suit except for that one time at Dali's? Trent is the one who is described as wearing the thousand dollar suits more often than not. And yeah, no gloves. Besides, if any man was going to make the cover I'd think it would be the one who was going to likely end up being her HEA partner. So definitely not Quen, lol.
Cover part 3 is back to Rachel... Um, is she wearing a ring? That's definitely not a pinky!And that is an awesome corset!
Wait, and a necklace? Is that a diamond?
She is wearing a ring!! Very interesting...hehe
We're not getting faces until Friday, I bet. Ah well, I can be patient. I wonder if she gets jewelry as a gift from a certain elf in the story. Or it could mean nothing at all...just props used for the cover shoot.
i wonder if we'll get to see full faces.... or if they'll be cut off at the necks...
Birthday gift, maybe? Preceded by dinner at Carew tower? Followed by some "dessert"? Lol
Could be the Ivys master vamp too! The book is about vamps after all ..... But I'm betting on Trent!
The synopsis for the book says that Rachel has to stop vamps with Elven magic so Im betting it's Trent

"B..."
Thank you :D Next time I'll definitely post the quote. The only reason I was hesitant to was because I wanted to see if everyone thought it was for sure Hollows and not Grace. Now that I know they disappear though, I will for sure.
