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. 😛
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?!
I’ve added a few new things to the site:
Now, if you click on the image of the Android Planet cover at the top of the page, you’ll be taken to the novel’s page. No button for purchasing yet, though.
I’ve also added the cover image of Android Planet to the display of our book titles (which also functions as a link to the novel’s page).
And in the COMING IN 2011 section at the bottom, I made the listing of Android Planet a link as well.
For now, bask in the beauty of the Android Planet cover. Once we have all our ducks in a row, then we’ll share the cover for Phoenix. We’ve just sent the cover off for approval!
Tight-lipped as ever, that Zack. Always with the poker face–well, the poker face of a man doing cartwheels! :laugh:

Can we quote you on that?? That is high praise, and we thank you for it!
In the Main Menu, click on Space: 1999 Books, look at the list of articles on the right and click on Android Planet. I will link the image on the main page to this article later. You can see a larger image of the cover and read the back cover text.
I just got the cover for Phoenix of Megaron! And (best Jim Carrey as The Mask) “It’s ssssssssmokin’!”
Book edited and approved.
Cover done and approved1. The book is being formatted to Lulu’s specs.
2. Once submitted, an ISBN number and barcode will be issued. These will be incorporated into and onto the book.
3. Then it will be re-submitted, and a proof copy will be sent to us. We’ll check to see, all the chapters start on the right pages, etc.
4. If so, we log on, and choose “publish”.
5. Then we build a page for the book on the site.
6. Finally, we post a button on that page, and a message on the forum.These are the final six steps. We’re on #1.
Remember, we said January. We’ll make it. :cheer:
