Witch Song Cover

Witch Song (Witch Song, #1)
Here it is! The final cover for Witch Song!
I LOVE LOVE LOVE it. Whenever I see it, I find I can't look away. It's like a girl with her first crush--only she doesn't have to worry about being caught staring!

Eve Ventrue captured the haunting, exquisite look in Brusenna's face perfectly. You might not be able to zoom in on it, but her eyes are so detailed and vibrant. Her lips look like they've been cut from her perfect face with a knife. The branches reaching toward her like gnarled fingers, ready to scratch and take hostage. I love the necklace, with the swirls of magic emanating from it--magic that brings life to the dead, dangerous branches around Brusenna.

And that's not to mention the back cover. The wolfhound and Brusenna with her golden hair. I LOVE THE TREE. The battered, warped door, the jagged glass on the window, even the ragged curtain trailing from the dark depths like a forgotten ghost.

I'm dying to know what you think! What's your favorite parts? Do you think it will appeal to the YA romantic fantasy readers? If not, why?

Big thank you to Rhemalda and Eve Ventrue!

  1. I like this a lot as well. The figure of the girl is appealing, but I also like the 19th century Romantic vibe in the background scenery.

    Your cover is amazing! I saw your book today featured on a blog's Waiting on Wednesday post and the cover immediately got my attention and was what made me read the summary. Now your book is on my TBR and I can't wait to read it. This will definitely appeal to the YA fantasy genre :)
