The Hollows: The Undead Pool’s cover is complete! And we get Chapter 1!

Some of you have probably already seen the completed cover. Sorry or the delay. I’ve been a bit under the weather, but I figured I should blog about it anyway. Of course, this cover is a special case because Trent is featured this time.  I’m sure we all knew it’d be him, so no big surprises there.  Overall, I think the cover is quite nice. While the model’s not bad,…

Poll – The Hollows: The Undead Pool Cover Reveal – Slowly but surely

So since yesterday Kim has been revealing the new cover piece by piece. In the back of my mine I suspected there was a chance “you know who” would be on the cover since A Perfect Blood included someone else (though the identity was never confirmed).  So it looks like they’ve done it again, but we have a pretty good idea of who it’ll be: So yeah, it’s very like…

The Hollows: Kim Harrison is full of surprises.

Best belated surprise ever!  As if Kim Harrison wasn’t *already* my favorite author in the WORLD, I just discovered this. I had NO idea she acknowledged me in the novel’s final print!  I cannot believe she did this! I just thought she hooked me up with the ARC of Ever After after I alerted her to a continuity error in the Into the Woods ARC. I had no clue about this…

Movie Review! The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones

When her mother disappears, Clary Fray learns that she descends from a line of warriors who protect our world from demons. She joins forces with others like her and heads into a dangerous alternate New York called Downworld. My general thoughts: It wasn’t great, but I didn’t fall asleep either so I guess the one plus is that it wasn’t boring?  I’m 95% through the first book and there were…

The Hollows – The Undead Pool Cover Reveal

Or maybe I should say the lack thereof? We saw A Perfect Blood’s cover sometime in July, Ever After’s probably wasn’t far off either, but Kim has been giddily keeping it under wraps. This post has me curious too.  So, what’s the hold up? Do you think maybe Trent will be on the cover this time? In other news, if you still don’t have The Hollows Insider, the paperback and…
