First look at Shadowfever!

What a great birthday! Thanks for the cards and the posts, you guys are THE best and have made it such a special day for me! As if being blessed with such wonderful fans and friends isn't enough--look what came in the mail today!





Before you start plotting to raid my house,LOL, it's a dummy copy. The pages are blank. Isn't it beautiful? I've never seen a book like it. Which is fitting since the book the book is written about is one of a kind too.





Off for dinner and cake!

What a wonderful cover and Happy Birthday. But an awesome fan can only be awesome because of an awesome author. You are a great writer and I love your work. You keep us in suspense and on the edge of our seats. I cant wait to see what you have in store for us next but only after a long exotic vacation with Neil. ;). Thanks Karen for letting us follow Mac and be in a different world for awhile.

Renee said...

LOVE this cover! It's my absolute favorite! Can't do New Orleans but will standing outside Davis-Kidd January 18th at 9am banging on the door for them to open!

Novels On The Run said...

OOO!! Be still my heart!!! That book cover looks incredible :D

I have mine on preorder and I am absolutely busting to get it. I have told sooo many friends about this series. I love the challenge of trying to work out who/what Barrons is. An author friend and I have nutted a few things out, we think. Time will tell if we were right * wiggles eyebrows*. My 62 year old friend is just loving the series. I laugh at how girlie she gets over Barrons, bless her . he does have that effect.

Have a great day:D
