As a matter of interest, I've had a number of different publishers now, nine I think, and the only one that has consulted me about the cover beforehand has been Harper Voyager Australia. They always do.

And I think the funniest ever is the Russian Tainted. And putting Patrick Swayze as Gilfeather was a bit much too…

It happened on Karen Miller's books, four published in the UK and everyone had a cloaked figure on it. I think I'd rather have the dragon even if there isn't one. The artists are being so horribly unoriginal.

I am so glad you are being published in Germany too Glenda, but although I know you lived in Austria, I, of course, am unable to make head or tail of what you wrote

I think it started with Trudi's Black Magician Trilogy over in the UK and on the weekend I came face to face with her latest and it was the same cloak! Well, maybe not the same, but it was a person in a cloak, just like the UK covers on your latest trilogy.

What is it with cloaks?????? Is this the new "it's fantasy therefore it has to have a dragon on the cover even though there isn't a dragon in the book" thing?

It's starting to put me off! Everywhere I look… cloaks!
