    I’m really hoping this book can’t be judged by its cover.

    Wait, are you serious?  I haven’t seen anything about that…

    Is this a belated April Fools’ trick?

    How odd.  I tried doing an Amazon search for it before and nothing came up.

    The description looks interesting.  Now I have something else to add to my upcoming books list.

    So does anybody know what this one’s about? I haven’t had the time to look up some of these new releases lately. :-(

    Haunted by memories of a violent past, Alastair Coldhollow wagers his life on the hope that a sword will appear in the stars and the foretold Halfainin, the Pathwalker, would come. Meanwhile, tensions simmer between Anglinore and the murderous Gorrack Nation, threatening war on a cataclysmic scale. The fate of all could rest on an abandoned child and the decisions of those who desperately seek to identify him.

    Hmmm.  I’m trying to figure out how the playing card got in there. If you ignore that, it’s actually not a bad cover.

    Yep, it’s definitely a legit book. It’s on Mr. Batson’s blog.

    From Amazon:
    About the The Dark Sea Annals series: A noble king discovers what

    happens when he leaves a door open for evil. The disastrous

    consequences impact generations, leaving the throne of Anglinore to a

    wicked despot, the kingdom in ruins, and Aravel’s son Loch in exile. To

    throw down the vile new authority, Loch will need to find the fabled

    Halfainin and raise a new army from a world of reluctant citizens.

    Together with his archer friend Ariana, Loch will face adventures that

    span the world of Myriad, creatures that defy imagination, and choices

    great and terrible all these recorded in The Dark Sea Annals.

    I think the playing card is sorta showing the good king/ bad king idea.

    I rather like the name Loch for a character. (Kind of off topic, I know. Just saying. . . ) :P

    Mr. Batson says that one of the characters from The Sword in the Stars will be appearing on his Facebook later today for a question and answer.

    And Alastair Coldhollow has taken over Mr. Batson’s Facebook! Ask him some questions.

    I’ve seen worse covers. Looks all right to me.

    I think it’s safe to say that I won’t be reading this one though ;)

    Points to him for naming a character Alistair!
