Check it out! The cover for NEBELBANN!

I am absolutely delighted to announce the cover release for Nebelbann, the German edition of A Local Habitation. ("Nebelbann" means, roughly, "mist-spell" or "mist-ban." It's a really spiffy compound word, and I'm thrilled.) This is being released by Egmont, my German publisher, and the cover design was done by the artist who designed the cover of Winterfluch.

Behold the pretty:



It's so different from my US covers, and so pretty, that I honestly couldn't be happier. I'm really happy.

What do you think?

I don't understand why you think it wouldn't be Toby?

Toby does have brown hair, and although she describes herself as more human-looking than a pureblood, she's still *fae*. In terms of the Tobyverse that still pretty much means "prettier than full-blooded humans". :)

(Edit:) I think people get fooled by Toby's perception of herself-- she's always comparing herself to the OMG-drop-dead purebloods, so *she* thinks she's nothing special in the looks department. But in that, as in a lot of things, she's not a reliable narrator. We humans wouldn't see her as plain-looking. (Neither do some purebloods. Ahem.)
Absolutely agree with this. Including how some purebloods would think differently.... :)
