Cover Art and Blurb Unveiling

Here is the final cover art for SOUL BORN, an epic fantasy novel written by Kevin James Breaux.  The cover is painted by Dan Dos Santos. Also as an added bonus below is the back cover blurb.

SOUL BORN

All Opal wanted was to be respected as a wielder of magic, but her teachers passed her over time and time again. When a mysterious warlord embarks on a conquest to destroy the lands of Illyia Opal seizes an opportunity to step out from the shadows of her instructors and take her rightful spot among them.

Tala, an alluring young elf, was banished from her tribe, hunted and nearly killed by the beasts that dwell in the deep forests, but more than anything else she is a survivor. Joining forces with an ancient elemental power Tala finds herself in the center of an unrelenting human war.

Flesh like leather and bone as strong as steel Karn, a veteran from the first kingdom to fall, is fueled by vengeance. While pushing ever headlong into battle Karn begins to recall memories of another life; ghosts that haunt his dreams.

Through death of soul, their world is born.

Opal from SOUL BORN by Dan Dos Santos

Stunning.  I could not be any more happy with this. What do you all think?  Dan did an amazing job.  No surprise he's up for a Hugo Award this year. I will post the final version of the book cover as soon as I can.

Thanks!

SOUL BORN Status Update

Straight from the publisher;

"I think Soul Born is coming along nicely. The editor claimed it was pretty clean on the first pass. (That being plot and style.) This is normally the stage where we send back for any rewrites, before the nity gritty grammar and copy-editing. She's moved right to the second stage."

Thats pretty exciting news there!

Dan Dos Santos was nominated for a HUGO Award this year.  Great news.  He is an excellent artist and super easy to work with.  He and I plan to do all the SOUL BORN covers together.  Lets all hope he wins this year.  The award ceremony is held at Aussie Con 4.  http://www.aussiecon4.org.au/
