BUT.
I have a brand new cover to share, so I'm hoping you will not mind if I take a moment to unveil it here. (Plus? I am sick with a horrid chest cold and have absolutely ZERO ability to write a decent post for today. /whine)
Ta da! This is the cover for my upcoming YA:
As you can see, it is quite a bit different in tone and feel from Theodosia or Nathaniel Fludd...that and the older target audience has necessitated a slightly different author name as well as a new (still-under-construction) website.
Once again, I am in awe of Houghton Mifflin's art department. ::pinches self::

It's gorgeous!! Thanks for sharing. Hope you get to feeling better soon.
Woohoo! It's gorgeous! Congratulations!
::Squeeing loudly::
Wow, that's my Christmas outfit, right there. Fur-collared red gown with cuff embroidery, and crossbow accessory. And how much do I love the tagline??? Cannot wait to read this. Congratulations to you - and feel better soon.
Gollygeewhiz, Robin - it's FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love her crossbow! She's da bomb!
(Hope you feel better soon, I just got back from a week of 5 schools in the Bay Area and three evening events with a cold/sore throat/hoarseness. It was tough!) Been wanting to write to you! Did you see my jaw-dropping Publisher's Marketplace news about a week ago? My belly dance Middle Eastern trilogy sold to Harpercollins in a Pre-empt Significant Deal!!! I'm still in mind-numbing shock.)
I also finished every single THEODOSIA and LOVED them! They are SO GOOD!!!
And you forgot to give us a pub date for GRAVE MERCY, girl!
And I need to stop writing emails here in the comments . . . ;-)
This is gorgeous!
Gorgeous indeed! That was the first word that popped into my head, too, so I'm sticking with it despite the lack of originality.
Congratulations, Robin! :)
I'm so glad you guys like it, too! And what a great Christmas outfit that would make, Tanita! We will need pictures, of course. :-)
Kimberly, NO. I did NOT see your Publisher's Lunch announcement (I don't subscribe any more, in an effort to keep myself sane and focused) so I am hugely glad you shared the news here! Wow-oh-wow! How exciting!! I bet your feet haven't touched the ground since!
And I'm thrilled you like Theo so much! Yay!
Darn. Forgot it again. The pub date is April 3, 2012, but there are ARCs floating around out there now...
Wow, that cover is really gorgeous!
Oh, I adore it and love it and can't wait to read it!
Congrats. It's gorgeous!
Beautiful! Love that dress and crossbow! She looks so strong.
I have it pre-ordered :)
And I adore the tagline, especially given the period in which the story takes place...
Hmmmm... I Like it!
I do think it's interesting that the only name change needed for Genre swapping is going from initials to your name. That's great that you didn't have to change it to an entirely different name.
CONGRATS IT IS GORGEOUS!!!!!!
LOVE it!! Off to see if I can find a summary of the story! Congratulations!!
Wow! This looks fantastic! Love the crossbow. I'm so excited to read this. Hurry up, April 3 :)
Beautiful!
This looks fantastic -- just the kind of thing I love, plus your fantastic plotting skills. Can't wait to read it!
Congratulations! Looks great - though if it were me packing the crossbow I'd have my hair tied back from my face ready for business! ;)
Stunning and dramatic! Hope the excitement helps you get over your cold...
Just beautiful! Can't wait to read this one, Robin.
Robin,
That is one of the most beautiful covers I've ever seen!
They will surely fly off the shelves.
All best,
Donna
I tried to leave a comment earlier this week, but it seems to have disappeared. Just want to say congratulations!
Awesome cover! So exciting :)
I just saw this book on Goodreads, and found your blog randomly, Robin :) I can not wait to read it, love love love assassins! Fantastic cover!
Thanks so much, guys! So glad you all liked it as much as I do.
And Jennifer, I DID see your original comment. I remember because it made me laugh really hard because you totally nailed me on my hesitancy to post the cover. :-)
Hi Kara-Karina! I had not realized there was such a large number of readers who loved assassins. Needless to say, I'm thrilled! :-)
Yay!
yoo RITE!!
Dunno if you saw this before...
yet, here it is once moe, curly:
Greetings, earthling! Need summore new-fangled-thots N ideers? Look no firdr, brudda. Can't stay long. Done gotta git, Paw... yet, if Im a sower, we plant the Seed; if Im an artist, we RITE the Word:
Would U please help a plethora of King Size, wildchild, rawkuss poetry/wordz which are lookin 4 a home in thy novelty?? Thx. Whew. They're pretty insane. They're bereft of reason. Oi! Blimey! They're bloody PINK spiders!
Gotta gobba lotta shrewd, surreal, supersonic, sardonic satires, sassy N savvy elixers N electronic elegance (and palpable nuance) on our YOUTHwitheTRUTH blogs. Wannum? Have'm. N'joym. Gettm outta my hair!!!
How mucha wanna betcha our sugar-high-mojo, pleasure-beyond-measure, fuse-blowin-exploits R a copious madhouse of one lavish bookay D.O.A.?

CAUTION: our 22ish, avant-guard, accurately-atrocious, offa-the-reservation-like-Jimmy-Hoffa, metal breadcrumms R sooo out-of-order, toots, they're an intimate wealth of bottomless sophistication. And dats da lethal fak, Jak. Go ahead. Sue me. Yawn. But, yet, here's the perennial KOO D'TAH: who else has actually SEEN the Great Beyond in spirit & lived to tella youse bout the bionic, bloated, brevity-like-earth we're living on?? Yes, earthling, Im an NDE, almost salivating4salvation. So gain altitude, never attitude: death has no intrinsick favorites.
If Mr. abSUREditty's an ultra-great-reward, and not everyone enters, Q: why is it an excruciating deluge of epic-.357-caliber where the quality's a limitless bulldozer plowin, pushin-your-power-cord with eternal goodies? A: the Prize-A+-TheEnd just gives U.S. moe-curley-graphix 2 VitSee: an explosion-of-extravagance which few R asking 4 anymore! Grrr. They're too concerned withe grotesque sanity of ambivilant piss-ants which swiftly crawl like lemmings to their scorecard destruction. C'est la guerre.
THANK GAWWWD!!! the Don has the ebullient BAWLS!!! to do the Manifest Destiny!!! To lead U.S. forward to the White House Upstairs with his SQUARES!!!
So, break-free, earthling; be like a contraversial outgrowth of incredibly-intoxicating-effusiveness in your zeitgeist to give the ultimate, stunning, backknuckle potency: Wiseabove. Wanna join this useFULL idiot Upstairs 4 the most zany, kooky, X-acto-knife antidotes? Extremely exquisite, explicit endorphins in abundance?
