KOTW Paperback

Laydeeeez an' gentleminions, I present to you, the KOTW paperback cover.


And Tom isn't even FINISHED it yet...! There's going to be some colour stuff happening, and some cool silver effects added and things, but even as it stands now, this is a cover that's going to pop out at you on the bookshelf. For Tom is awesome.

Speaking of paperbacks, we're going to start gradually removing the short stories from the reprints, with the aim of collecting everything (including the Tanith novella) into one big book in the spring of 2014. There'll be lots of brand new stories in there as well, covering the entire series. So will we see a short story starring Mr Bliss, back when he was alive? Will we see Val and pre-Remnant Tanith fighting side by side once again? Will we even catch a glimpse of Skulduggery and the Dead Men at war with Mevolent...?

To be honest I haven't a clue. I'm just making things up as I go along.

Be here on Friday for the Tanith cover...

EDIT EDIT EDIT EDIT

Annnnnd apparently I won't be revealing the Tanith cover until Friday the 23rd... bah!

Snow said...

*french:Baguette magique*

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

XD ROFL

Snow said...

*wants to know more about ember, besides Mycroft*

*notes that if I put "M" in, Mycroft is one of the first options on the spell asist*

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

EEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!

*marries the spell-assist*

Snow said...

http://sixpiedssurterre.files.wordpress.com/2010/08/wands_ps-cos.jpg

Snow said...

*the Mycroft thing is because I use the word so much talking to youu*

Snow said...

*thinks it's funny that the spell-assist didnt forrect asist*

Snow said...

*nor did it correct "correct"*

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

MY spell-check doesn't even think Mycroft's a WORD.

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

Which is really strange, if you ask me.

Snow said...

*thats because your spell#check is a spell-check, while mine is a spell-assist*

Snow said...

*also because my tablet is a Mycroft fangirl, thus proven by the amount of times it has change other words, such as "Mystic", to Mycroft*

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

Something about me...

I am an extrovert who also really, really loves time alone.

I like to try and be funny but I fail a lot.

I'm often flippant and/or facetious, but there are a couple of things where I really break down at the mere mention of them.

I always accidentally hurt people.

However, I consider myself to be relatively loyal.

I like to banter and watch other people banter.

THE END

Snow said...

*I was talking to a sherlock rper and it kept changing words to Mycroft, it was funny...*

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

<33333

Tell your tablet I'm in love with it

Snow said...

*copies the things about ember*

Snow said...

I love you too - Tablet

*it knows*

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

0_0 IT KNOWS

Snow said...

*needs to get first so I can post the fabi-inspired video ded I've made*

*sighs*

Snow said...

*nods*

*my tablet knows all*

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

Except that "Mystic" is not "Mycroft"


...But then again, WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE

Snow said...

*my tablet knows that. It just profers "Mycroft" to "Mystic"

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

Tell me something about YOURself!

Snow said...

*has to go*

*frowns*

*hugs Ember the Mycroft bunny*

*bye bye*

*poofs*

Snow said...

*will tell you something before I go, just let me type it*

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

Awwwww :( See you!

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

Oh yay! :D

Snow said...

I am weird.

I love reading.

I have 3 cats.

My friends and I have a group called The Crazy League and once you join, you are a member for life

I am over-protective

If I hate someone, I hate them forever. But if I like/love someone, I like/love them forever.

Snow said...

*hugs*

*poofs*

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

Cool! :D

*keeps*

Ebony Law said...

Hello.

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

Greetings.

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

Have you left? Oh dear. My arrival was only slightly tardy.

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

Your impatience perturbs me.

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

I think you'll find that learning to wait will help you. There is a time for impatience, of course, but it must be a conscious decision.

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

Any decision made without thought and careful planning is a bad decision.

Ebony Law said...

Well, from my experience, if something is taking too long, you get in there and do it yourself.

Ebony Law said...

So I see I am no longer the one being waited on.

Ebony Law said...

Does anyone know where a valuable ring might be hidden?

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

I'm afraid I do not.

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

And that would be known as a conscious decision.

A good technique during a fight would be to goad the opponent into doing something rash, thus the need to be able to plan carefully even under duress.

That said, first impulses are often the correct ones. We do everything for a reason, conscious or not.

Ebony Law said...

But eliminate the sub concious, and here you are left with a human without instinct or secondary morals. Do this to everyone, society crashes and burns.

Simple.

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

I did mention the subconscious, albeit briefly. I agree with you.

Hi Dragona! :) How are you?

Dragona Pine said...

I'm fine, thanks. How are you?

Anonymous said...

I'm tired but basically I'm good^^
I have been watching some stuff on youtube about Joker :)

Dragona Pine said...

He's funny. He has brittle bone disease and he's a pilot.

I actually played a mission as him a while ago. The ship was attacked by well...

http://masseffect.wikia.com/wiki/Collector


Them.

So the ship AI told him to go down to the AI core and give it control of the systems so then they could activate the drive core and go light speed with the airlocks open - killing all the Collectors but Joker was safely inside the engine room which had been sealed.

Dragona Pine said...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jJXm3l3Sjsc

That's a funny video of jokes between Joker and the AI - in the middle of the Collector attack on the ship. It's pretty funny.

Anonymous said...

He has brittle bone disease... isn't his job very dangerous for him then?

They look kinda scary...

Isn't AI this pretty robot thingy?

Sorry for not knowing anything! I feel really stupid right now :P

Okay, gonna watch the vid now!

Anonymous said...

Gah... youtube isn't working, sorry!

Dragona Pine said...

The AI is called EDI and "pretty robot thing"? Do you mean my picture? IF so, no. My picture is of a Geth. Sentient robotic beings created by the Quarians. They're pretty cool.

And yes, his job is pretty dangerous for him. He's always breaking fingers and arms and stuff BUT he's like the best pilot in the Alliance so yeah.

And yeah, the Collectors are pretty creepy.

Anonymous said...

No, pretty robot thing referred to something I saw in a video I watched yesterday.
The robot looked like a woman and was in the cockpit next to Joker. I thought it (she?) was called EDI... might be wrong, though.

Dragona Pine said...

Ah, yes. EDI gets a body in Mass Effect 3. In ME2 she just appears as a blue holographic sphere, but yeah you find an android body so she uploads herself to it and becomes a squad member.

Anonymous said...

Ah... now it makes sense^^

Is EDI an abbreviation? Just wondering cause it's capitalized...

Dragona Pine said...

Enhanced Defence Intelligence.

She, for a start in ME2, is just in control of the automatic defence systems as she can like react quicker than a human can.
But then when the Collectors attack Joker gives her control of the entire ship, and it stays that way even in Mass Effect 3.
Even though she is in a body, her main hub is the ship and she remote controls the body, in a way.

Food brb, won't take long though.

Anonymous said...

*nods*
I see... I think^^
Still trying to watch the video but youtube keeps refusing to show it to me. Gah.

Alright :)

Anonymous said...

Welcome back :)

Dragona Pine said...

Thanks. ^^

Anonymous said...

*gives up*
Okay, youtube really isn't working. Damnit. I saved the link, though. I'll try it again tomorrow^^

Dragona Pine said...

Ok. ^^


I'm one mission away from finishing Mass Effect 2 and then I'm done and can play Mass Effect 3.

Anonymous said...

I always thought you were done with Mass Effect 3 as well... I mean you know so much about all that stuff!

Anonymous said...

Hm... I gotta go in a few minutes, I'm sorry!

Dragona Pine said...

Oh, I am. I've played Mass Effect 3 through twice by now and both times I had a different outcome and stuff.

I'm playing it this time - well I started playing Mass Effect 2 as a female Shepard and made her act like a bitch, just for the fun of it. Now I'm going to upload the character to Mass Effect 3 and see what bitchy things I can do that way.

Then I have a save game from Mass Effect 2 still that I need to complete - since I started a play through of all 3 Mass Effect games. I completed ME1 perfectly fine, and am part way through Mass Effect 2 on that save - about half done.

So what I'm going to do is finish my female Shepard play through of Mass Effect 2, then complete Mass Effect 3.

Then I'm going to go back to my complete play through save and do the other half of ME2, then complete ME3 using that and see what happens.

And the endings are always different? That sounds really cool!

*Absent-mindedly throws a snowball at Silente* >:D

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

Oh don't be so mean chio! He's like me! Part monster part man! Or in my case woman.. anyway

Dragona Pine said...

This unit does not appreciate having snowballs impacting on our head.

John said...

And why am I grounded?!?

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

And of course you've missed me chio!
*looks over at dragon* sorry mister!
