La Lance du Désert Cover Art

My French publisher, Bragelonne, is awesome. I am on their Milady imprint, which is where they put their best books. Don’t believe me? Check out this list.

Last year, they let me scoop everyone and be the first to show off on the Peephole the incredible cover art for their translation of The Warded Man, l’Homme Rune. This year they are keeping up the tradition of awesomeness, this time with pure the cover art to La Lance du Désert, the French translation of The Desert Spear, which will be available in October this year. As with l’Homme Rune, the cover to La Lance is painted by the incredibly talented Miguel Coimbra. It is hotter than the Core and colder than a snow demon’s spit:
