Thoughtful Thursday: Rename This Horrible Cover!

Welcome to the third installment of Rename This Horrible Cover!

This week, I invite you to feast your eyes on this beauty.

The Witches of Karres by James H. Schmitz

The Witches of Karres by James Schmitz is classic, old school science fantasy.

The Outlaw Demon Wails: Best HOLLOWS book so far

The Outlaw Demon Wails by Kim Harrison

The Outlaw Demon Wails (Where Demons Dare in the UK) is easily the best of the books so far in Kim Harrison’s Hollows series, featuring Rachel Morgan. I thoroughly enjoyed For A Few Demons More, but this entry into the series had me gripped from the very start.
