Works for me. I’m all about good cover art. Looking forward to reading it.

The last one had it’s own vibe thing going, but thins one turns my knobs over to 10. The textures, the extra characters, the color tonal qualities (and balance from the warm at top to the cool at the bottom), the “less than Bill the Barbarian build” on the main character, the addition of items that instead of being decoration makes the viewer think, “Hmm, I wonder just what that armillary sphere does?” And the type. Love that type.

When can we expect “The God Engine” in Germany? Hopefully with better cover-artwork than Heyne did for the SF-Novels …

When you read the excerpt at WorldCon and then I saw this cover, it’s a brilliant match. Chong captures your insolent God, just perfectly.

Congratulations to the artist for capturing both mood of the story and also some of the specific details.

It’s nice when marketing, art and accuracy all pull in the same direction.

Although the Chained up guy looks more mischievous than I imagined.
