We really are going to send this book to print. Sandra and I spent all week grinding on this cover.
The next batch of Schlock Mercenary books will have a new cover texture, moving away from the pipes-and-metal of books 6 through 11. The stone circuit pattern was designed by K.B. Spangler, who has discovered that I really can be the worst client ever.
(UPDATED TO ADD: The story of how I told K.B. Spangler to stop drawing, and start throwing cooked spagetti on the floor, has been told in Ms. Spangler's own words on one of the pages of Force Multiplication. The book has been sent to print now, so her story cannot be un-told.)
