I am in the middle of reading Lamentation by Ken Scholes and so far I am greatly enjoying it! It is quite unique and very well written, two things I demand of fantasy these days, and if you haven’t read it yet go out and buy a copy! Good stuff!

One of the simply great things surrounding this series, The Psalms of Issak, is the fact the first two books are completely finished and edited while the third is near completion. Canticle, Book Two, won’t arrive in bookstores until October 13, 2009, giving Ken a great lead time on Book Three. For those of you who like authors to deliver at least once a year, Ken Scholes is the author for you!
The other wonderful thing I am seeing from Tor-Forge is consistent cover art on Ken’s books. I like that. A great deal! And I know the fans do too. Irene Gallo is one of the best art directors in the business and she has outdone herself when it comes to Ken’s covers. Again, great stuff!
Irene and Tor.com have posted a fun and informative article about cover art and the progression artist Greg Manchess took from sketch to finished product as he created the cover art for Canticle.
Enjoy!
