    yes it would…

    if only there were some way to perform a search on this site – then one could see if the book, and its smokin’ cover, had already been sneakily added – hidden like a royal blue Easter Egg waiting to be found, in the Underground….

    but you didn’t hear this from me… :whistle:

    Well played, Mateo. B)

    Oops, I didn’t know about the search function. If I had, I would have called it Fenix. The easter egg was actually a period with a link in the COMING IN 2011 section after the listing for Phoenix.

    I plan on putting up more easter eggs, but I’ll be more clever about it next time!

    Please remember, this is just the preliminary cover. ITV may request changes or ask for a wholly new cover. We’ve put up preliminary covers in the past, often radically different from the final versions.

    Nice though, isn’t it?!

    PoM Novel Cover-

    :woohoo:

    Oh my frakkin gods…er,uh…M.U.F.s !

    That cover is just so cool ! No wonder you said it was “smoooking”. Kinda reminds me of that sequence from The Empire Strikes Back when Luke crashed his shot-up snowspeeder before that on coming Imperial walker. Sure hope the ‘Powers-That-Be’ allow you to keep that novel cover. Very dramatic.

    Ah, the things we do to keep you all happy…

    Happily, keeping you happy makes us happy too! Mysterious handprints, surprising plot twists, easter eggs, hints and revelations of the unfolding mythology peppered throughout the books, keeping secret the names of our foreword contributors, and teasing the hell out of everyone with little tidbits of info on upcoming books. All in a day’s work here at Powys. 😛

    Just plain evil, that’s what it is. All this teasing and hinting making us look for easter eggs…

    Just a bit. 😛

    OK – Here’s some scary insight to one reader’s mind…

    Easter egg=Easter bunny=rabbits=”Cargo”/Ernst Linden=rabbits digging holes where they shouldn’t=releasing things that are meant to be kept hidden Underground

    Eureka!

    or another… (which I’d be willing to bet mirrors the editor’s thinking 😉 )

    Phoenix of Megaron=Rhoda=rescue=Helena hearing digging=tunnel that comes from Underground that leads to Hyria

    Voila!

    Likewise! What a cover! Superb! Batman in the Alley… where would Powys be without Ken Scott? REALLY fantastic to see this. Thanks Mateo, you fiendishly fiendish… uh… fiend you! Haha! :laugh: 😉

    I’m certainly looking forward to Phoenix Of Megaron. I am curious as to how it will be re-written to fit into the official Space:1999 canon and Powysuniverse guidelines.

    I’ve just sent the back cover text to Ken Scott. Now he can start putting together the full cover (front back spine).
