Tanith Cover REVEALED!



I hope you're all as thrilled with Tom Percival's artwork as I am!

Let's say no more about it!

(Other than to say, perhaps, that this may not be the FINAL artwork, and that maybe the art department need a FEW more days to tweak the colours, and that maybe, possibly, this piece might not even be by the hand of Mr Percival.)

(But let's face it, it's hard to tell the difference, right?)

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Unknown said...

HaHa it's in Africa, sothern Africa... don't wory not many people Know of the existance of Namibia

Luciana said...

ZAF, DID YOU GET THE E-MAILS?

YOU SHOULD HAVE.

YOUR NAME WAS ONE OF THE FIRST I WROTE ON THAT E-MAILING LISTING - I THINK....

Melica Frost said...

right guys question - I wasnt paying ANY atention earlier and would like for someone to tell me is there going to be a movie made or not ?

Unknown said...

noone really knows we were just talking about out cast preferences

Luciana said...

ACTUALLY, DEREK PROMISED MOVIE NEWS BY THE END OF THE YEAR!


istilldontrememberwhereireadthisbutiknowitstrue.

Melica Frost said...

ohh ok thankyou :) If and this is a MAJOR IF auditions were held wherever anyone is would you audition to be anyone?

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

There wont be anything American I assume :/

Unknown said...

I read somewhere he took the movie rights back from a film studio 'cause their script sucked

Melica Frost said...

yeah that was back in 2009 I think? :)

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

If Derek wrote the script it'd be good, cuz its Derek.

Unknown said...

I would for tanith(but they proberly want more experience for her)

Melica Frost said...

yeah, would you go for Valkyrie?

Unknown said...

No I look ridicuolos in dark hair

Luciana said...

IT WAS YEARS AGO THAT HAPPENED. THEY HAD SKULLY SINGING, APPARENTLY. >_>

Unknown said...

No. Skulduggery does not sing. It is illogical.

Eve the ROCK said...

Derek said at the Adelaide event there'd be news around October or November...

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Oh yeah Luce!! Some weird musical thing....Skully singing?! Hell I'd be like, uhm

Eve the ROCK said...

Also,

TERESA PALMER MUST BE TANITH LOW!

Unknown said...

Really...U have too be a real kind of stupid to make skully plesant sing

Melica Frost said...

OHH THE HORROR.........
yeah but I think if you were going to audition to be Valkyrie then you would have to be maybe 11-14? because Stephanies 12 in the first book...so yeah DEREK if your reading this then I turn 14 in 16 days...the clock is ticking...

Unknown said...

I'd love to be Valkyrie. You know, except for the part where I look nothing like her and have an "American" accent. (being specifically broad here so my mom doesn't get mad at me for putting my personal details on the internet)

Unknown said...

Luciana said...

THAT COULD BE WHERE I HEARD IT FROM.

AN AUSSIMINION.

I BLAME THE AUSSIES, ANYWAY

THEY HAVE SEXY ACCENTS.

OH AND RIM IS BACK SOON. SO I CAN TALK TO HER AND SCREAM ABOUT AUSSIE ACCENTS WHILST YOU ALL GIVE US CREEPY LOOKS AND WE CAN LAUGH BECAUSE FILTHY MINDS AND YOU'RE ALL SO INNOCENT AND YEAH...

I miss Rim. :(

SHE LIVES SO CLOSE TO ME, TOO.

WHICH IS YET ANOTHER REASON FOR DEREK TO DO A SIGNING IN SHEFFIELD; Rim can also go and I can meet her and ehgf uAWGe'XUEFo.

thereshouldbeasigninginSheffieldnextyearok

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Morning Eve!

Unknown said...

I hope ther is a movie eventially though...so all non readers can experience skully's awesomeness

Melica Frost said...

yeah, I would love to be Valkyrie aswell but Im Scottish, hmmm but I bet if I work on my Irish accent I could sound believable...and not offensive...

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

I was told I should so try for Nye's voice, apparently I can get high pitched

Unknown said...

Atleast I'm good with accents....If it depended on accents I could easily get a part in the movie

Melica Frost said...

yeah see the film brave, has anyone seen it?

Unknown said...

I have...I love the 3 boys but further it was a bit dissapointing

Star Inkbright said...

IF THERE'S A SIGNING IN SHEFFIELD, I'M GOING. :)

'T's'only one hour away ish.

Sorry I disappeared. Skul's body w'u'n't go right then I was tryna print only the printer was disconnected coz decoraters then I was cutting out my lines of speech then starting to draw Valkyrie runnibg and yeah.

I cbb to speak prop'ly. T'much effort. Sry.

Melica Frost said...

yeah see the girl Meradie? At the start of the movie she says "If you had a chance to change your fait, would you?" When I say that I swear I sound exactly like her...It creeps me out :O

Unknown said...

In my head I sound like her, but I think that's because her voice is programmed with that sentence in my head

Melica Frost said...

yeah I got my whole family to say it...its strange...and now I get teased for it :(

Star Inkbright said...

@L: BUT NO ONE IS INNOCENT! *starts mouthing innocent whilst bobbing head*

I keep mouthing songs and nodding along to the beat in school. I probs look like I have earphones in or summat. :)

OH I CAN BE BOTHERED TO SPEAK NOW!!! *throws confetti and brings out bottle of champagne*

*tries unsuccessfully to open champagne before giving up and tossing it in lake*

Msd.

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Im just epic so my family tends to ignore me

Unknown said...

My family is jeolous of my epicness

Melica Frost said...

I tend to ignore my family most of the time because they annoy me a lot... but I talk to them when it matters like dinner time and stuff...

Unknown said...

My family only sees me when food is involved and then I vanish for more magic training just Like *poof* gone and they don't even notice

Unknown said...

I am the 900 comment (I think)

Melica Frost said...

my family are just jelous of me because if any of us were to become the doctors companion then I would no doubt be chosen ...

Unknown said...

Holy cow it's midnight,well goodnight then...I so hoped to comment alongside derek on my first day but I didn't get to...
*yawnes*

Melica Frost said...

ok night then :(

Star Inkbright said...

Oh, I like my family. They're all awesome, though occasionally annoying.

Someone I don't like is, as of a few minures ago, Valkyrie. Why does she insist on being difficult to draw?

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Eh Derek comes on when Derek has time

Star Inkbright said...

FOURS VALP!

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Oh yeah

SORT THE MAIL DEREK

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

DEREK I NEED TO GET IN CONTACT WITH YOU TO GO TO IRELAND!


If you don't want to say where to meet up and stuff HERE, you could email me or something with one of your publisher's emails or something...

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

And Val when/if you meet him you must like Skype me so I can kinda meet him, and he'd laugh at my lovely American accent

Unknown said...

Hi Val!

My friend just finished KOTW
Her reaction was slightly angry

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

He'd be laughing at my American accent too, in that case, Zaf :D


When I finished, I was terrified. It was five in the morning, and I slowly glanced towards the mirror, shook my head, and went, "Oh, hell no."

Unknown said...

SPOILERS


Her actual reaction, word for word:

THE REFLECTION MUST DIEEE!! GAAHH! I LIKED HER IN THE BEGINNING! WHYYYY?!?! RAASNSHXKELDOWNDD



SPOILERS END

Unknown said...

And now she's making fun of Carol. This is unacceptable.

Unknown said...

Unknown said...

O holy buny, it's 2 in the morning and i can't sleep...damn you brain I'm tired

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

I remember rereadingit, as i didnt read it for a while and it was, laaate I think I cussed the reflection, but in Death Bringer Viniette and I made a song, tune to a chorus song we hate, basically it describes our hatred of Melancholia

Unknown said...

melancholia and katina are the two most hated characters by me 'cuase they dare think their greater than val.

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Ooh its the tune of Achieved Is Thy Glorious Work

The best part to sing

Melancholia is a brat. She can burn in a hole, burn in a hole. Melancholia is a *cuss word* a *cuss wird*

Yuup its all high notes too!!

Unknown said...

cool song
PS.my cats freeking me out

Unknown said...

Stupid poofing comments!

I hated Kitana, but I actually kind of liked Melancholia. DON'T JUDGE ME!

Unknown said...

me too at first but then she got full of herself

Unknown said...

I liked her the whole time. I don't know, I just saw it from her point of view.

I am bad, and that's good
I will never be good, and that's not bad
There is no one I would rather be than me

Unknown said...

I liked her name and picture though

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Melancholia annoys me...grrr i read Death Bring: I hate Melancholia

Unknown said...

looks who'd getting all mad....i have to say they where rater mean to her and treated her like dirt...katina on the other hand was treated like a goddess and was still a bitch

Unknown said...

I'm really happy right now. I found my VHS of Cats XD

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Aah Im pure evil...threatened someone that if they die im gonna bury them outside Derek's house...:P

Unknown said...

Gongrats....Don't laugh at me but what is A VHS and more importantly whats cats

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

*screams and runs in circles casually exploding few countries*

Unknown said...

Zaf your so evil...lol

Unknown said...

I'm really bad at explaining stuff, but here goes.
VHS is like a tape of something. Like a DVD, but older?
And Cats is a musical that's based on T.S. Elliot's book of poems- "Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats"
I haven't seen it since I was like, six, so I'm not totally sure of the plot. The songs rock though.

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

I am a Necromancer...

Oh my god funny thoughts: Derek leaves his phone on, he gets emailed notifications of our comments, phone goes off madly, 4am. He gets woken up. I have one my spam momemts, i see it

DAMN NECROMANCER!!!

Unknown said...

Unknown said...

Yeah, I don't watch much though. I really like Pandora Hearts, have you ever read/watched that?

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

It litterally means I like the books of Derek.

Makes no sense but ok...xD

Me hermano es peresozo. Me gusta leer. No me gusta estudiar para la clase de matematicas. Mi favorita clase es la clase de inglies. Yo quisiera visitar Ireland para ver Derek. Yo tengo nueve libros de Derek.

Unknown said...

me gustaría hablar español, pero por desgracia sólo puedo utilizar el traductor de google

Unknown said...

STOP MOCKING MY FRENCH SPEAKINGNESS!
It's sad, I took Spanish for 5 years, and I speak more Vulcan than I do Spanish. And I've been watching Star Trek for 2 weeks. :P

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...
