COVER!



Well, I was going to wait until a few tiny tweaks were done by the wonderful Holly of Bloomsbury, who is doing this work of art by hand - but as it appears in the Bloomsbury catalogue, yer tiz! I love it, love it. We are having fun going backwards and forwards making the two characters a little tattier, and less clean cut.
No photo could do the jacket justice.. the six leaves either side of the title are hand blocked in silver, and it is a thing of real beauty.
Thank you so very much from the author to the artist.

    Hi Sue... how's the book tour of Asia going? have you left Bankok yet?

    I am SO delighted with this artwork. But it will have to share the 'colourful and gorgeous book cover' prize with 'Clash of Innocents'!
