ANCESTOR hardcover cover & up for pre-order


Awwww shit! There it is, folks, the cover of the hardcover for ANCESTOR. As a Junkie, you are the first bitches on the planet to see this bad boy. The cover isn't even up on Amazon yet (but you can pre-order it, of course, 'cause I'm a marketing whore). I am still working my ass off on this one, and I hope you dig the efforts.

Date Change!

So I just got an email from Amazon.com telling me the release date for Ancestor has been pushed back to May 10th!!

 

Tell me its not true FDO!!  I don't know if I can wait!!

we could do some recon, get a team together and just raid the print shop to get the books prior to release date.

I agree I want it NOW!!!

Of what?

Finaldrive's picture

Of the place I'm going to steal the stun guns from?  Yes.  The publisher/Printer? No.

Oh, I see, that could be a problem.

pre-order or buy on the day????

grokfun's picture

Which is better for the FDO book sale ratings?

It would seem a larger pre-order number would be a good thing but....

I think FDO has said otherwise previously.

Whatever works for you

scottsigler's picture

Pre-order, buy on the day online, or patronize your local bookstore. Doesn't matter. Well, only thing that matters is if it's an indie store, ask if they report to the NY Times. If not, snag it from a Borders or Barnes & Noble.

The point is, no day-of rush -- working on a different level now, so all pre-sales roll up to that first week's stats. You do whatever works for you. 


does amazon report to the NY Times?

if not then i'll get it through one of the other places.

Perhaps it's because I'm too

Sister_Lil_Bunny's picture

Perhaps it's because I'm too darned imaginative, but this creeps me the f' out!  

 I keep thinking of the scene when it bites the camera and she goes crazy.  Yeah, I looked at this cover and got the willies!  I have to buy this for hubby's bday now come hell or strange creatures!!!!

 

~I hate you...no offence!~


Hey! Looks who's back!

Comparatively Lame Cover.

aliencam's picture

Sorry scott (and cover artist).  No way you could beat the original Ancestor cover.  Now that was the best book cover ever. 

 

Oh yeah, preordered.   (I'm not missing another chance of getting Ancestor in print for less than $50 Although I would prefer the original.) 


I like 'em both

scottsigler's picture
The original cover by Kevin Capizzi is fantastic, especially when he animated that thing. Bad ass, it was. This one is also pretty bad ass.

Very cool.....

I can't wait till I can get my grubby hands on that bad boy, very excited to see the changes you made. Viva Sigler-Carnie "I'll take you on a ride you'll never forget...."

Awesome cover too

Scary yet Satisfying...

RonnieDaJunkie's picture

Aw Man, that artwork is SICK!

Sorta reminds me of that scene in Alien III, when Ripley gets the ultrasound confirmation that she's with "child" (?). The beastie on the cover reminds me of that one.


Holy Shit!

Twowire's picture
 That image of the immature Ancestor (Looks like Baby McButter?) just exudes an primeval  fierceness! Yikes, It's scary!

FEBRUARY 16TH??

jtmanis's picture
We're already left waiting for The Rookie, and now we have almost 8 months until ANCESTOR?

This glacial pace is the way it works, sadly

scottsigler's picture
Shoot man, between THE ROOKIE series and Crown hardcovers, we're talking two books a year. That ain't bad for the slow-poke publishing biz.

Quality Vs, Quantity

as much as I love and want to have an episode a week, tapping the vein for more. I like the Quality of the work More.

 

Love the work Bro, keep it up. Looking forward to the tank and the other shorts you have in the the wings.

Interesting cover.
