Dragon Strike Cover Art

rooting for the dragon


Not much to add to this. They went with a single dragon concept instead of the two or three I suggested. But I like it. The dragon-throne is nice and it's evocative of one of the scenes, so you can't ask for too much more in a cover.

Due out December 08.

RuGaard is looking gorgeous here. I agree that your idea of having all three in the cover would be fitting, but this turned out lovely RuGaardless regardless. :} I'm looking forward to reading it in December!

Drat! Where's my time machine?
December!
Patience! Must have patience!

Great cover, btw!

Love the hoard under the throne and the tattered banners all around, not to mention the centerpiece!!

Very cool.

Great detail on the background (of course the dragon is cool too).

I like it alot, but I too wanted all of the dragons on the cover and that's how I always imagined it would be.

Since they chose just one though, I'm glad they chose RuGaard!

Woot! This looks great. I had to look twice to tell it was the Copper (saw his gimpy wing).

Did you still want me to work with you on the map thing?

With a name like Dragon Strike I'm now eagerly looking forward to it, considering how well you've matched the titles to the books themselves!

Hope you don't mind I've added you. ^^ I'm Zyleeth's boyfriend and a great fan of your writings.

Nice cover. He looks miffed.

This means, of course, that you've got another series I've got to catch up on.

(sigh)

Looks awesome! I'm about to start the Copper's book! I read AuRon's book Wed-Fri and Wistala's book Fri night to this morning! I'm totally hooked and wondering how I'll make it to December for book 4! I've been waiting for the dragons to meet up with one another!!!!!!!!!
