The full cover for my new novel, Marseguro…

…arrived via FedEx today, along with the page proofs which I must now carefully proofread and get back to DAW by October 26. Woo-hoo!

Here’s the full cover:


The blurb above the title reads “Can the hidden colony of Marseguro survive rediscovery?” And here’s the back copy:

Marseguro, a water world far distant from Earth, is home to a small colony of unmodified humans known as landlings and to the Selkies, a water-dwelling race created by geneticist Victor Hansen from modified human DNA. For seventy years the Selkies and the unmodified landlings have dwelled together in peace, safe from pursuit by the current theocratic rulers of Earth–a group intent on maintaining human genetic and religious purity.

Then landling Chris Keating, a misfit on any world, seeks personal revenge on Emily Wood and her fellow Selkies by activating a distress beacon taken from the remains of the original colony ship. When the Earth forces capture the signal and pinpoint its origin, a strikeforce, with Victor Hansen’s own grandson Richard aboard, is sent to eradicate this abomination.

Yet Marseguro will not prove as easy to conquer as the Earth force anticipates. And what Richard Hansen discovers here may alter not only his own destiny but that of Marseguro and Earth as well…

I couldn’t have put it better myself!

    BTW, I see they still have different US/Canada prices, which seems a little ridiculous… I bet that extra $3 goes all to the author though, right? Right?
