Penguin/ROC releases CD cover and more [Major Spoilers]
« on: April 01, 2012, 04:02:41 AM »
So earlier tonight I was perusing the web, and came across an article for Penguin/ROC publishing.  They were talking about upcoming work, and mentioned The Dresden Files.  I checked it out, and WHAM! Tons of new cover art and titles for the series!  I think most of this is actually pretty spoilerific, so I'm putting them in spoiler tags, so no-one accidentally sees anything they don't want to.  Christian McGrath's artwork is once again looking great.

First up, and on its own, is the cover for COLD DAYS

Now, if you want to see the rest of the Casefile covers, they're here.  Not too spoilerific really, just the titles.  Not too much really revealed by McG's artwork.

We already knew the names of the BAT books, so again, not really spoils.  Except for some hints in the background artwork that may or may not confirm some current theories.

The most interesting, of course, is the spin-off trilogy.  I hadn't really heard much about these, other than JB wanted to do some Molly POV short stories or something.  I'm amazed that he's planning her own trilogy, with POV from PG, GS, and FI.

Not sure how long it will stay up if they didn't want all this to be spoiled, so check out the original article here.

EDIT:
Well, April Fools is over everywhere, so the game is up.  I really like Christian McGrath's work, and recommend checking out the originals of all of these, and more, at his website:

All edits made with the high-power tool known as Microsoft Paint v61.

Yeah, but Germans and Hungarians don't pull people's theories out of their sockets when they're challenged.  Ducks are known to do that.

lol, I was going to do an aprils fools joke like this, using chris mcgrath's "the devil's looking glass" as the faux- cold days cover.but I flaked out . Well done though. Even if they are a joke, one can dream and they look pretty good.
