That's a guilty smile if I ever saw one! Get him! Ply him in the old ways!

Shall we bring him to the humming brink of climax?  Is that what you mean, Wilshire?

I mean, it couldn't hurt... Maybe not what I was thinking but your way might work as well.

Lol, okay, okay.  So as far as my inspiration for the image goes... I don't know what else to say but that Scott's words inspired me.  Simple as that, no great reveal or insider knowledge happening.  Just thought it was a great, enigmatic scene that might work well as a teaser for the book.

As for Scott's inspiration regarding writing the scene, I only found out afterward when he kindly divulged it in an email.  Far be it from me to illuminate another's creative inspirations, but let's just say his use of the term 'spill the beans' was quite appropriate.  :P

Fuck yes, Somnambulist :).

I was wondering when I'd see this piece spring up. I hope this remains unexplained for the next four weeks.

And, having read the ARC, that is a great promotional that doesn't give anything away, yet gets you all giddy inside.

Having not read the ARC, I can confirm MSJ hit the nail on the head for how this comes off on those of us still in the dark. The art and quotes are insane, I have no idea what's going on and can't wait to find out.

Beautiful preview it has to be said.

I expect that that is Sorweel in Ishterebinth, surrounded by Nonmen.

Can't wait for you to join us, Bolivar. As themerchant says, some are meant for the Slog and some aren't.
“No. I am your end. Before your eyes I will put your seed to the knife. I will quarter your carcass and feed it to the dogs. Your bones I will grind to dust and cast to the winds. I will strike down those who speak your name or the name of your fathers, until ‘Yursalka’ becomes as meaningless as infant babble. I will blot you out, hunt down your every trace! The track of your life has come to me,

Mithfânion, always great to see you around. Though, I think there is something wrong with your avatar, you might need to re-upload it.
