Dark Faery Tales posted the cover art for Rob Thurman’s Chimera due out June 1, 2010.
Is it just me or does he kind of look like Tom Wellington from Smallville?
“First: sadly, no Chris McGrath. I know. I'm pretty frigging hearbroken as well.
Second: the artist, Aleta Rafton (www.aletarafton.com) did a very, very nice job. So I lucked out yet a second time with an artist.
Third: DON'T PANIC. Some of you may be UF readers and UF only. You might not be into Sci Fi. This book is listed as a Sci Fi Thriller and the cover does look very Sci Fi. It's not. It's set now and the only difference is that genetic manipulation is more advanced...but only by the bad guys, and they always have more advanced goodies than the rest of the world anyway. This is the book I wrote when I couldn't sell Nightlife, yet I still wanted to write a book about brothers and the bond that goes with that. This is basically a Cal and Niko type book, but the monsters are human. No space ships. So don't freak out. Instead, imagine the fun of the darker, sarcastic brother having to be the older and responsible one and what hell he'd go through trying to be a role model (poor Stefan. Explaining the birds and the bees about broke him. Heh heh.)” –Rob Thurman
oohh...Tom Wellington..sexy. I do see the resemblance.
ReplyDeleteOkay, I like this cover and would buy it for the simple fact that it looks like Tom Welling. But it sounds like a good book as well. :-)
ReplyDeleteNot sure whether this bad boy is meant to steal Supermans thunder but since love the other series that Robin writes am very happy to find out about this particular book and will buy when hits stands....
