I stumbled across the German cover art for Red Hood’s Revenge, by Paulo Toledo . Click the thumbnail for a larger view. This one will be out in June of 2011.

Apparently this is the week for covers. On that same day, I found the Czech cover art for Stepsister Scheme. They’re recycling the art Scott Fischer did for the DAW edition, but it’s interesting to see that cover with the Czech title and a different font.

Windycon is this weekend. The pocket program is posted here. My schedule looks like so:
- Saturday, 1:00 p.m. Walnut Room: Reading

Any suggestions for my reading? I was thinking of trying the goblins/zombies story…

What did they do to Talia in that cover?! Snow and Danielle look alright, albeit a bit… Well, I always thought of Danielle as more modest than that, Talia certainly so.
But yay, bring on July 2011! 😀

Germany has gone with a very different look/style for this series. Have you seen the other two German covers? http://www.jimchines.com/novels/princess/princess-artwork/

Indeed, it’s just Talia seemed really different to the previous two. She looks best on the Mermaid’s Madness cover (Although I, personally, envisage her to be more like the US covers).

I’m having difficulty knowing which princess is which. At this point, I’m GUESSING that from left to right, it’s Talia, Snow, and Danielle. And that’s based on two details only: Snow’s choker and Danielle’s blond hair. Talia might as well be.. well, anyone.

I … don’t know. I see the choker, but that would make Talia the one on the left, and I can’t imagine her with that expression on her face.

Nor I. I was originally placing Talia center because of the the serious facial expression and.. well, being a brunette. I just don’t know who might have auburn hair.
I like the artist’s style, but I’m not certain he’s familiar with YOUR princesses. Roudette’s certainly looking young, too. Ah well. I’m just glad your books are popular outside the English language.
