In case you guys didn't know, my friend Leigh Bardugo's 2nd book, Siege and Storm, releases tomorrow. I an giddy. GIDDY. I had the good fortune to read it a few months back, but I'm already dying to read it again.
To celebrate the upcoming release, I wanted to make Leigh a little present. You might have seen the Darkling and Mal Roguish covers floating around the internet. I came up with Roguish magazine several years back after I made a fake magazine for zombies. And if zombies can have a magazine, then why not bad boys?
Behold. (Don't tell Mal, but the Darkling's cover still makes me swoon more. Sorry Mal! I still <3 you!)

You might have heard there is a new swoon-worthy character in Siege and Storm. A privateer by the name of Sturmhond. He's bold and charming and extremely handsome, and I may or may not have developed a teensy tiny little crush on him. (No one can hold a candle to my Darkling, however. I WILL JOIN HIS DRUM CIRCLE SOME DAY. MARK MY WORD. AND BY "DRUM CIRCLE" I MEAN HIS BED.)
So, with that said, the present I made Leigh --- A Sturmhond Roguish cover!
Now, run to the bookstore and camp out until they shelve Siege and Storm and BUY IT IMMEDIATELY. You will love Sturmhond, ladies and gentlemen.
Uhhh, yeah, The Darkling cover would *definitely* be the one I'd buy. If I had to choose just one. Holy smokes, I'd like one of each, please!!!! ;-)
ReplyDeleteI knoooow. I <3 the Darkling forever and always! Hah.
DeleteGreat cover, although I have to admit that I do like the one with the Darkling better, sorry! :D Anyways, I thought Siege & Storm was fantastic! An absolutely flawless sequel.
ReplyDeleteNo need to apologize my friend! I do too!
DeleteLOVE these. Sturmhond is my absolute fave -- the character and the cover. :)
ReplyDeleteI must admit, I liked Sturmhond more than I thought I would! I am very stuck with my Darkling, you know. :-)
DeleteThis is FANTASTIC. I wish I knew (or remembered?) who Sturmhond is :D
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteDid you read Siege & Storm yet? Or are you thinking of Shadow and Bone?
(20 days later)
DeleteI still haven't read Siege and Storm. Perhaps that's the problem ;)
Omg. These are GORGEOUS. Sturmhond is one of my favorite characters ever, but my heart belongs to Mal. Your cover depicts him so perfectly.
ReplyDeleteThanks Amy! I do love Sturmhond something fierce, but I will always be Team Darkling! :-)
