Cover.

I have a cover! (I've known about this for a day or two, but it's now cleared to go public.) And I love it. The artist is the very talented Paul Young.

Oh my. It's stunning. Totally gorgeous and evocative. Go you!

I'm very pleased.

[jen-qoe.livejournal.com]

Oooh, new booksie! Lovely!

[steepholm.livejournal.com]

Nice!

[barbarienne.livejournal.com]

That's lovely.

Look! A woman on a cover who isn't dressed all sexy and/or has her face obscured!

I love covers where the characters (male or female) are looking out and making eye contact with the reader.

[http://users.livejournal.com/la_marquise_de_/]

It's a natural pose, too. I am delighted.

[stephanieburgis.livejournal.com]

Ohhhh, that is beautiful!!!! I was looking forward to reading it regardless, but now I REALLY can't wait to have my own copy of it!

[desperance.livejournal.com]

Oh, that is nice.

[pbray.livejournal.com]

Congratulations on an awesome cover!

Oooooh, that's lovely!

[clanwilliam.livejournal.com]

Oooh, that's beautiful!

While they say you shouldn't judge a book and all that, that is a nice design. :o)

Here's my very original and unique reaction: Oooh, gorgeous! (I know that's what everyone said. They're right.) :-)

I too love that she looks like a normal human being standing like a normal person would, and fully dressed.

Can't wait to read it!

[http://users.livejournal.com/la_marquise_de_/]

She's properly dressed, standing naturally and she has a normal shape. I love all of that. And I really love that she is so defiant: it goes perfectly with the character.

Lovely.

Heavenly shade of blue in the dress (alongside all the other nice things).

[lil-shepherd.livejournal.com]

Yes! That's a great cover. It should help muchly in selling the book.

[al-zorra.livejournal.com]

The title is wonderful also!

Love, c.

[http://users.livejournal.com/la_marquise_de_/]

I will own up to being very fond of that title. I'm glad DAW kept it.

[genarti]

Oh, wow. That's gorgeous!

[the-faery-queen.livejournal.com]

a girl! omg! :) it's lovely :) will you make that your new icon?

[http://users.livejournal.com/la_marquise_de_/]

I shall definitely make an icon.
And yes, that's Aude. She's... feisty. But I like her anyway.

[deborahjross.livejournal.com]

Ooooh! Want!

[anef.livejournal.com]

That's very nice - and with Jehan in the background as well. She doesn't look quite how I imagined Aude to myself, but she looks very determined! And as others have said, lovely colours.

[http://users.livejournal.com/la_marquise_de_/]

She's fairly close to how I see her and that expression is spot on. And I was pleased that Jehan is there, too.

[woolymonkey.livejournal.com]

I love it too.

[themis1.livejournal.com]

Fabulous! Looking forward to reading it :-)

[fireun.livejournal.com]

Oh, that is gorgeous!

[teriegarrison.livejournal.com]

Ooooo! So purty! Can't wait to see it in real life. :-D

[jpsorrow.livejournal.com]

Ooo, a very nice cover. Can't wait to read the book!

[http://users.livejournal.com/la_marquise_de_/]

I hope you like it.
