If I hadn't been sick when I received the cover image, I'd have been shrieking and bouncing off the walls when I saw it (which was my actual reaction when I heard that Nadine was being published by Thomas Nelson/Harpercollins xD) - but as it was, I had to do all bouncing and shrieking inwardly xD.
BUT now I'm less sick, and I can do all the bouncing and shrieking with you guys, because it's time to show the cover to all of you! And it's absolutely gorgeous gorgeous GORGEOUS, so scroll down to get a look at the beauty of it all ...

THE GORGEOUS COVER OF FAWKES
![Fawkes by Nadine Brandes [Cover Image]](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEia7bvd7Tr4ZIOcMG4Dc4BrEYA3otnVD9h-rmEI2yWm28pbdJ-byqviGXqmH6o5l-xi697H6w0VPnnuS3r0awpvWg9mcfBGGHlE27BK7UUx7ZHXDZ4f8ILnGeLQ3Chqctri1umUQfn2An4/s1600/fawkes+cover+image.jpg)

Thomas Fawkes is turning to stone, and the only cure to the Stone Plague is to join his father’s plot to assassinate the king of England.
Silent wars leave the most carnage. The wars that are never declared, but are carried out in dark alleys with masks and hidden knives. Wars where color power alters the natural rhythm of 17th century London. And when the king calls for peace, no one listens until he finally calls for death.
But what if death finds him first?
Keepers think the Igniters caused the plague. Igniters think the Keepers did it. But all Thomas knows is that the Stone Plague infecting his eye is spreading. And if he doesn’t do something soon, he’ll be a lifeless statue. So when his Keeper father, Guy Fawkes, invites him to join the Gunpowder Plot—claiming it will put an end to the plague—Thomas is in.
The plan: use 36 barrels of gunpowder to blow up the Igniter King James.
The problem: Doing so will destroy the family of the girl Thomas loves. But backing out of the plot will send his father and the other plotters to the gallows. To save one, Thomas will lose the other.
No matter Thomas’s choice, one thing is clear: once the decision is made and the color masks have been put on, there’s no turning back.

*is practically bouncing with excitement as I write this* Doesn't the cover look incredible?! I had so many expectations for Fawkes' cover (because it's a Nadine book, and the covers for her Out Of Time trilogy are killer), and it absolutely met them all! ALSO IT'S BLUE. I GET TO BUY A NEW BLUE BOOK IN JULY. I'M SO EXCITED, I COULD DIE. All the cover-love for blue books. <3 <3 <3. And not only is this one a blue book, it's a NADINE BRANDES BOOK. Her Out Of Time trilogy is one of the best trilogies I've ever read, so I'm over the moon about getting a new Nadine-book in July! *all the flailing*
And to top off all this excitement, there's a giveaway for an ARC copy of Fawkes! (also, admit it - that title is epic. It will also always make me think of the phoenix Fawkes from Harry Potter xD)
a Rafflecopter giveaway
Anyways. Now that you've seen all of my flailing about Fawkes, go check out Nadine's post about her new cover (where you can find pre-order links for ze book)! Fawkes will be available on July 10th, but I don't know if I'll be able to survive the wait xD.
Now go! What are you still doing here?? Add it to Goodreads! Pre-order it on Amazon! MAKE THE INTERNETS EXPLODE WITH EXCITEMENT.
... so now I shall just sit here and be tortured as I wait to read the epic thing. Someone send help. xD

ReplyDeleteIT'S THE MOST GORGEOUS THING OF EVER, I love it so much <3. (and YAY, you got to be one of the first! xD)
DeleteOk so I also made a mistake which is hitting enter on "follow on Twitter" when I meant to hit it on "follow on Instagram"??? HELP. ONE UNDESERVED ENTRY. Hope they'll check it out and fix it if they find I don't exist on Twitter???
ReplyDelete*squints at the rafflecopter* ... yeah, I have no idea how to fix that. Hopefully they do check it xD.

ReplyDeleteReally lovely new headet, by the way, Savannah ☺
I've seen about seven - they're everywhere! xD AND SAME - IT'S JUST SO BEAUTIFUL. Ooh, you're a historical fiction fan? Cool! I don't read that genre much, but since this is a NADINE BRANDES book, I'll have to!
DeleteThank you so much, friend! <3
The cover is absolutely gorgeous!! I've never read any of Nadine's books, but I read her blog occasionally and she's an amazing writer! Now time to convince my parents to get me the Out of Time Trilogy for Christmas. :P
ReplyDeleteOH MY GRACIOUS - YOU HAVE TO, NICOLE! Nadine's Out Of Time trilogy is one of my top-favorites, and that's saying a LOT xD. (if you get it for Christmas, you'll have to tell me what you think once you read it!)
DeleteThat IS lovely!! Sounds like a fascinating plot bunny Ms. Brandes captured there! Is this a sequel to her earlier books or a stand alone?
ReplyDeleteHey, awesome to see you today. <3 Fingers crossed for Tuesday! BTW, do you want to put The Testing snippets in our word doc, instead of e-mail? (Either way works for me!) I'll try to add more N&S to it.
It's her first standalone - it'll be nice not to be killed with a cliffhanger at the end of the book! xD
DeleteYES, it was so great - I'd missed you! (and now we need to get together again :D) The Doc works fine, I'll try to add some onto there today or tomorrow. Can't wait to see yours!
IT. IS. SO. JAW DROPPING. GORGEOUS.
ReplyDeleteAND THE STORY SOUNDS SO EPIC.
I CAAAAAN'T!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I NEED DIS. LIKE NOW. Why must July be so far awaaaaay??????
Also. YOUR NEW HEADER. My eyes went like O____O when I saw it because like it's as gorgeous as Nadine's book cover. I AM IN LOVE. AND YOUR PROFILE PIC IS GORGEOUS. AND JUST YES.
THERE IS SO MUCH GORGEOUSNESS GOING ON RIGHT NOW.
I. CAN'T. GET. OVER. IT. <3 <3
DeleteDoesn't it just?? A story about the gunpowder plot - I NEEDS. I normally don't read that much historical fiction, but THIS? I will have my hands on it the first second I can xD. It's going to be so cool!
EEP, THANK YOU SO MUCH, CHRISTINE! <3 <3 <3 I'm so glad you like it! :D
