Exile Cover!

Ta dah! Here is the cover photo for Exile. Hope you love it as much as I do! Robert and Aurelia asked me to share with you a single paragraph from Exile so you can truly appreciate the amazing job Michael Frost and Theresa Evangelista did with this picture.

Red-orange-violet fire defined Aurelia’s first view of the frontier. Not a polite, watered-down shade, but a drastic wildness flaming the upper echelons of the sky—a sky unlike any she had ever seen. No boundaries, or barriers, nothing to slice apart the spectacular curve of the vision. Not even the faintest wisp of a cloud. Only the ferocious brilliance of color over the landscape.

    Hi Jill,

    Her eyes are the correct color here. This is the final photo.

    Hi Daydreamer,

    Sorry for not replying to your question earlier. The rights to the photo belong to Penguin, not me, so I will have to ask, but my contact person there is gone until at least the 18th.
