We have finally reached the time where I can share with you the cover of the first book of my new fantasy trilogy:
Isn’t it beautiful? While this isn’t what I had initially envisioned for the cover, what Enclave (the publisher) and cover designer Emilie Haney came up with is quite eye-catching and captures the essence of the story. I especially love all the vibrant colors. And what is this story I keep talking about? Here’s the backcover copy:
Glimpse the past, illuminate the future.
Yosarai Patican dreams of becoming an illuminator in a country that values art above all else. A lofty goal that finally seems within reach when she earns a position at the prestigious Academy of the Seven Arts. Although Yosarai loathes to leave behind her quiet country life, she travels to the capital, determined to live up to her mother’s fame as one of Indel’s greatest artists.
Prince Xander never planned to become king. Indeed, he never wanted to become king. But when his father dies suddenly, he is thrust into the middle of coronation preparations—and assassination attempts. With everyone around him in increasing danger, Xander decides to hide in neighboring Indel until the time for him to be crowned king arrives.
Posing as an inventor struggling with aesthetics, Xander enlists Yosarai’s aid as part of his cover, but soon he suspects she knows more than she should. But when danger threatens and secrets are exposed, entering a competition reputed as cutthroat may be the only way for them to protect everything they hold dear.
Now while the book will be releasing next spring, the hardcover is already up for pre-order. Just click the picture below.
