Cover Reveal~ The Crown's Dog


Ah another day and with that means another cover reveal post for one of Elise Kova's books. I am super excited to be sharing this cover with you guys. 

Yes the Air Awakens series has concluded, but the world still has stories to teller retell. Along with having a new series coming out this January (The Alchemists of Loom). Elise took it upon herself to write a prequel to the Air Awakens series. This has to do with the elite guard we followed throughout the series that was lead by the Aldrin's brother Baldair.. 

The Crown’s Dog is a prequel story about the founding of The Golden Guard. It features characters from Air Awakens and takes place in the Air Awakens world. While it is not required to read Air Awakens first, readers may get more enjoyment from doing so. For those interested, the Air Awakens is available for free on Kindle Unlimited, ebooks for purchase through Amazon, as well as physical copies through The Book Depository.

Now without further ado here is the cover for The Crown's Dog




How gorgeous is this cover? Now I for one am possibly the most excited for this first book in this prequel series. I loved reading about The Golden Gaurd throughout the Air Awakens books, so now I am SUPER excited to get the chance to see the insides and outs.

Anyone, if you didn't know, or for some reason could not tell, the handsome young man on this gorgeous cover is JAX, JAX WENDYLL. From the beginning I fell in love with the complexity of his character. So finding out that Elise chose to write Jax's story first, made me full of overwhelming joy.

Now that I had time to gush about the actual book,  it's time to talk about the actual cover. Yet again Meril has out done herself. She I believe has captured everything that makes Jax who he is. I love the colours chosen for the cover. I also really liked the esscense and strength posed in this cover. Another element I am really enjoying is his light up hand, and the tossing of the coin type thingy. In general the overall composition of this cover is outstanding and I am beyond happy for Elise to have this new prequel series out there.
