So it's cover central around here lately. But I can't help but post these lovely pretties as they are revealed. Today Leah Cypess brings us the cover for her upcoming companion novel to the excellent Mistwood
--Nightspell
.
This is not a direct sequel but rather a standalone novel set in the same universe. Nightspell
, like Mistwood
, centers on a strong female lead. Her name is Darri and she's facing down a handful of insanely complex family issues, a land where the dead walk, and a handsome ghost prince. Um, yes please! I honestly can't wait to get my hands on it. Due out May 31st.
I fell in love with the cover of Alexandra Bracken 's debut novel-- Brightly Woven --last fall and the scant synopses I could find at the time certainly piqued my interest. After managing to get my hands on an ARC, I found myself surprised and pleased with this unique fantasy. You can read my review here . As the release date approached, I invited Alex to participate in an interview and giveaway here on the site and, despite her crazy busy schedule, she kindly accepted. Enjoy! First things first: When did the idea for Brightly Woven first hit you and what (if anything) did you know right off the bat? I remember the exact moment it hit me—what I was doing, who I was talking to, what song was playing on iTunes. :) I had just come back from Winter Break my sophomore year in college and was sitting on my bed chatting with my mom. Sophomore year was pretty remarkable in terms of the insane weather that we had in Virginia (where I was in school) but it had also been a bizar...
It's beautiful!!! I love how her face blends with the background...and that CASTLE. *LOVE*

ReplyDeleteThis is so gorgeous. I loved MISTWOOD, and am definitely looking forward to this. :)
ReplyDeleteI think it's really pretty. My only thought was that when I first saw it the N looks like an R.
ReplyDeleteOoh. Fun. I just finished Mistwood last night. It was excellent in so many ways and choked full of surprises. Thanks for posting.
ReplyDeleteAnd, can I just say, that I have been going through some serious Angieville withdrawals these last couple weeks. It's a compliment. I'm just a big fan. grin.
Oooh Nightspell looks gorgeous! I'm glad Leah Cypess decided to write a companion novel to Mistwood. I hope this one is just as good as her first book.
ReplyDeleteEeee me neither! Now how can we cajole Leah Cypess into giving us ARCs of her next masterpiece...?
ReplyDeleteOh, it's lovely! Thanks for posting. I too cannot wait to get my hands on this.
ReplyDeleteI liked Mistwood but didn't love it as much as some, but this one sounds super intriguing. The cover is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteWow, that cover is just so pretty I would have bought it for that reason alone!
