    Willo the Wisp seems to be hiding behind her head. And what’s with the pair of Iron Crosses flanking the title?

    The blurb seems to be telling me, in a roundabout way, that this is a horrible book. I believe it.

  2. Jaouad Says:

    After the blue lights had faded, Athaya decided she would never again select her hairdressers on bicep size alone.

  3. Jaouad Says:

    Is it just me, or do those arches look as if they’ve been crayoned in?

    Julian Sands decides that Derren Brown book was a wise investment.

  5. Tom Hering Says:

    Candles, vapors, swooning. Athaya’s aroma therapist gave her everything she wanted, until the day he wore his sword. Now he would take – without asking!

  6. Rags Says:

    Wait, is he wearing rubber muscle shirt and pants? Well at least he is liquid proof.

    Queen blew the castle budget on the candle holders.

  7. Bibliomancer Says:

    Are those stink lines wafting off of Princess Athaya? She’s using way too much perfume.

    @Tag Wizard — beard-wielding? He’s wielding a whole lot of stuff but nary a beard … unless you are implying that the princess is his “beard”?

  8. The Tag Wizard Says:

    @Biblio – left candlestick

  9. Phil Says:

    Ooh, good save, Tag Wizard. I hadn’t noticed Dave Lee Travis concealed in the candle stand.

  10. Tom Noir Says:

    @Tag Wizard – you have a good eye for beards!

    Does that make you… The Wizard King??? And are you rocking an epic ponytail?

  11. Dead Stuff With Big Teeth Says:

    Julie Dean Smith writes very dood books, says Gene Simmons.

    Behind the wizard’s right foot–where is that pool of sunlight coming from?

  12. fred Says:

    I’ve heard of Princess phones, but not Princess lanterns.

  13. FëäröfMüšíc Says:

    Oh so very busy. So much color and detail. A mescaline manifestation of motile formal and freeform color and flow. What it means or is does not factor. This is a DMT alternate reality inter-referenced perceptual journey, with clear insights into the infiniverse. The story is an ever expanding exploration into the individually perceived subjective reality of their surroundings.

  14. B. Chiclitz Says:

    Dude, watch the upcreep on that right hand. You’re the Wizard King, not a Lizard King.

    And it feels like there should be a tag for the kind of belt buckle she’s wearing. I think it’s that monkey from the space-banana pile.

  15. The Tag Wizard Says:

    @Mr Chiclitz, monkey tag added (and with only mild annoyance at the species for not conforming to the pre-existing “ape” tag). Good shout!

  16. B. Chiclitz Says:

    @T-Wiz—Thank ye, kind sir, on the simian thing. By the way, good catch on that beard! Not often is Sri B’Mancer given a comeuppance.

  17. Bibliomancer Says:

    @B. Chiclitz — Don’t you feel bad now that you’re making The Tag Wizard spend the weekend updating all the monkey tags on the appropriate book covers. There must be a barrel of monkeys here!

  18. A.R.Yngve Says:

    The cover blurb seems to assume that the entire world is familiar with those pesky wizards of Caithe — whoever they may be.

    Can YOU guess who the Wizards of Caithe are? Are they:

    A) The dreaded IRS inspectors of Midgard
    B) The fun-lovin’ team of wizard beach volleyball players and surfers
    C) The renegade princess’s in-laws
    D) On their way to Bethlehem
    E) The renegade princess’s spin doctors
    F) Carnies

  19. A.R.Yngve Says:

    “This is for Warlock III!”

  20. Dead Stuff With Big Teeth Says:

    The chap from The Golden Horn got around a bit when he was younger.

  21. B. Chiclitz Says:

    @B’Mancer 17—Now that you mention it, I do feel sorta bad about that. Why don’t you spend some time helping him out? You’re still on summer hiatus, aren’t you?

  22. B. Chiclitz Says:

    Of course I meant left hand. Congenital spatial dyslexia, the curse of left-handers.

  23. Dead Stuff With Big Teeth Says:

    Wait, wasn’t the Wizard King Γim Morrison?

  24. Bokrug the Beleaguered Says:

    I AM THE LIZARD KING!!

    *i can do anything*

  25. A.R.Yngve Says:

    I am most dreadfully sorry that this obvious pun comes so late to the party, but here goes:

    “SLEEEEEP!”

  26. Anna T. Says:

    Why is he wearing black leather pants and a matching muscle shirt? I didn’t know they had THAT in the Middle Ages!

  27. Perry Armstrong Says:

    Bill Cosby’s favourite fantasy novel.

    *sorry*

  28. A.R.Yngve Says:

    Too soon, Perry… too soon!
    ;-P
