Serbian Desert Spear

Posted by Meg

The Serbian translation of The Desert Spear, Pustinjsko Koplje, is has been on sale from Laguna Publishing for a while now. Peat recently received the physical book in the mail.

It’s interesting to see what countries keep the US or UK covers and which ones create their own Demon Cycle art. Serbia chose the latter and came up with this beautiful, inventive cover:

Pustinjsko koplje

The demons on this cover are so cool with their blood red eyes and their plated amor.

You can see all the Desert Spear covers here.

Speculate! Podcast Interview Pt. 1

Posted by Meg

Peat teamed up with Brent Weeks to do a special Speculate! Podcast focusing on their respective comic and graphic novel projects.

Red Sonja Unchained TPB

Red Sonja Unchained, trade paperback edition

Here’s the description courtesy of Speculate!

In this episode, part 1 of a 2-part series, epic fantasy powerhouses Peter V. Brett and Brent Weeks sit down and talk comics, including Peter’s Red Sonja projects, Red Sonja Blue andRed Sonja Unchained, and the graphic novel adaptation of Brent’s, The Way of Shadows. We talk about the process of adapting novels into graphic form, about giving up control, and things unique to the graphic form. It’s a great episode for any fan of the graphic novels and adapting your work. Be sure to tune in next week for Episode 103, when we conclude our two-part interview with Peter and Brent.

You can listen to the first part of the podcast here. 

Part 2 of the interview will be out later this week, so check back soon!

If you haven’t checked out the Speculate! Podcast yet, it’s a great podcast for fantasy fans. Hosted by speculative authors Gregory A. Wilson and Bradley P. Beaulieu, the various episodes include writing tips, book reviews and author interviews.

#Shelfie Contest Winners!

Posted by Meg

The entries are in and Peat has picked the winners! As always, it was hard to pick. There were a lot of great #shelfies, so be sure to check our all of them over on Facebook.

One interesting thing about this contest was seeing what everyone had on their bookshelves. Folks generally had similar titles on display, and Peat mentioned that he owns many of the same books as you guys. Demon Cycle readers aren’t just connected by Peat’s work, but are part of a lattice.

Keep in mind, Peat generally tried to pick entries that followed the rules (aka, the bookshelf and your face in one picture), but some of these photos were simply too cool not to reward.

Drumroll please … and the winners are …

  • Shawn!

  • Sue in her Demon Cycle shirt!
