Alan Campbell made a fairly large splash in the fantasy genre with the release of his interesting and dark tale Scar Night. It is quite different from anything I have read and an interesting idea. Campbell followed up Scar Night with Iron Angel. And with a release three years in a row, Campbell will publish God of Clocks on April 28, 2009!
Yes, Campbell is a writer who can put out a book every year!
We love that, don’t we?
So if you haven’t read Scar Night, do it. You just might find a new favorite!
I am making this post to highlight Campbell a bit, but also to talk about one of my other side projects. As many of you already know, I moonlight as a late night webmaster for a few people in the publishing industry and one of those people is cover artist Stephen Youll.
I’ve worked with Stephen for several years now, uploading new artwork to his website when he needs it done. The design of his website is not mine but I help where I can and I really enjoy seeing new artwork before it hits the shelves. For those who do not know Stephen’s work, he is responsible for the US covers on books by George RR Martin, Robin Hobb, Brian Herbert (Dune covers), Kevin J. Anderson (Saga of the Seven Suns covers), as well as many more writers. Stephen has also done the artwork for all three of Alan Campbell’s US book covers.
Yesterday, Stephen sent me the gorgeous wraparound artwork for Alan Campbell’s God of Clocks! To view that beautiful artwork, click HERE!
