{Cover Reveals} OUTPOST & THE KINGMAKERS & INFERNO

(I know I just made a cover reveal post, but I just saw a bunch of new reveals on All Things Urban Fantasy, and thought I'd share them with you. c:)

Outpost (Razorland #2)
by Ann Aguirre
Expected Publication: September 4th 2012 by Feiwel & Friends
Hardcover, 336 pages

Deuce’s whole world has changed. Now living topside in a community called Salvation, she has a whole new set of problems. Down below, she was considered an adult, and she contributed to the whole. Now, topside, the people of Salvation think she’s a brat in need of training. She hates school, and she doesn’t fit in with the other girls. They’ve spent their lives learning to cook and sew–suitable woman’s work. Deuce only knows how to fight. To make matters worse, Fade keeps her at a distance, and the band of four has broken into fragments.

Stalker presses for a closer relationship, but Deuce sees him as a training partner, and she’s busy trying to find her place in Salvation. She refuses to accept that she’s wrong for being who she is, but tensions rise as she struggles against the status quo. Her feelings for Fade haven’t changed, but he seems not to want her around anymore. Confused and lonely, she starts looking for a way out.

Once she’s free from school for the year, Deuce pursues a chance to serve in the summer patrols–those responsible for making sure the growers and planters can work the fields without danger of Freak attack. It should have been routine, little fighting, but things have been changing on surface, just as they did below ground. The Freaks are smarter. They’re watching. Waiting. Planning. The monsters don’t intend to let Salvation survive, and it will take a girl like Deuce to turn the tide.

My Thoughts: I reeeeeeally love the covers in this series (even though there's only two books including this one.) I love the old, rusted, out in the woods feeling. The cover definitely had my attention, and even more so with the gloved hand. I seriously need the first book in the series!

Expected Publication: September 2012 by Prometheus



Description N/A





My Thoughts: I really like this cover. Each cover in this series has it's own little theme, and this looks like it's fiery and stuff. If that made sense. ;P But I love that there's whole models on this, as in their entire bodies. It makes the book more persuasive. :) I have the first book in this series, and I need the next two.

Hardback


The heat is on, and a new threat to humanity has risen…

Nick has his driver’s license and he’s not afraid to use it. But turning sixteen isn’t what he thought it would be. While other boys his age are worried about prom dates and applying for college, Nick is neck deep in enemies out to stop him from living another day. No longer sure if he can trust anyone, his only ally seems to be the one person he’s been told will ultimately kill him.

But life spent serving the undead is anything except ordinary. And those out to get him have summoned an ancient force so powerful even the gods fear it. As Nick learns to command and control the elements, the one he must master in order to combat his latest foe is the one most likely to destroy him. As the old proverb goes, fire knows nothing of mercy, and if Nick is to survive this latest round, he will have to sacrifice a part of himself. However, the best sacrifice is seldom the sanest move. Sometimes it’s the one that leaves your enemies confused, and you even more so.

And sometimes, you have to trust your enemy to save your friends. But what do you do when that enemy is you?

My Thoughts: I like this cover out of the four in this series so far. For obvious reasons, this shows almost his whole body, whereas the other three just showed him waist up. I have the first book in this series, which I actually started it but didn't finish it due to too many books. ;P But I plan to read it sometime!
