THIS SIDE OF THE GRAVE cover!

August 24, 2010 by Jeaniene Frost

Last night, Harper posted the cover for THIS SIDE OF THE GRAVE on their pdf catalog, which meant that this morning, it had already been picked up by a few blog sites. My reaction? Yay, I get to show the cover earlier than I thought! 😀

Without further ado, the cover:

And now, the stepback!

I’ve wanted gargoyles in the background for AGES, and of course, I always love cemetery settings.  As I mentioned in another post, yes, I know that Bones’s tattoo doesn’t match the description in the book, but if it had, you wouldn’t see it. Also, Cat’s not wearing her ring, but as my editor pointed out, when Cat’s out hunting, she’d leave it at home because she wouldn’t want something happening to it. So that’s why those things differ from the book description, but I am very happy with the cover and stepback. Big shout out to my cover artist, Tom Egner!

    Wow! Jeaniene!! That is the best Cat has ever looked! For me, it’s the closest to my idea of Cat yet!! Congrats on another winner!!

    LOVE the images!! of course this only makes February seem that much farther away….

  7. svmaddict says

    August 24, 2010 at 10:54 am

    Lovely! I wouldn’t mind seeing the real tatoo even if that meant Bones would have to, um, go without pants 😉

    I like that Bones’ face is in the shadow -I still haven’t managed to put a face on him, in my imagination, to do him justice, so I like I don’t have one forced on me. I have a Mencheres and an Ian and even a Vlad in mind but for Bones and Spade I guess my expectations are too high and I can’t settle in just one face. Anyway.

    The gargoyles rock -and so do Bones’ abs. 😀

    Can’t wait for the book to be released!

  18. Delilah says

    August 24, 2010 at 11:16 am

  19. maldivianbookreviewer says

    August 24, 2010 at 11:19 am

    I love to ogle your book covers.
    DELICIOUS.
    And, OMG a RAVEN! 😀
    But I’m almost forgetting how much I look forward to the good stuff on the inside!
    Dang, Jeaniene, you’re a bundle full of awesome.

    August 24, 2010 at 4:32 pm

    Oh My! Wow! Gracious me, I am having a severe attack of the vapors….*fans self*. Whew!

    Is it my imagination or does Bones in shadow slightly resemble a character we all know and love…..Spike? My first glance made me do a double-take. LOL!

    I can’t wait to read what is between the covers of this book!

    Excellent cover. Cat looks fierce yet confident. I wonder what Cat is whispering in Bones’ ear in the step back.

    August 25, 2010 at 6:28 am

    Very very nice, though I still like the cover of “Half Way To The Grave” best.

    The stepback on this is a a close second though.

    Any chance of new wallpapers from these?

    i am a big fan of your books ive read every single one about 30 times.. (each) i even was lucky enough to get an autographed book from you! 😀 in one of your contest

    but im a little disappointed, i loved how you always used the same girl and guy in the covers. cause they are a spltting image of how i imagined them!! like identical… so i was curious,

    how come you used a different bones in this new cover?? :/

  47. trader says

    August 25, 2010 at 3:57 pm

    Cat looks like a kick-ass vampire! I love it! And I do like Bones face in the shadows.. nice artwork. Thanks for sharing. Really looking forward to this.

  48. vallierjenn says

    August 25, 2010 at 5:24 pm

    Love the picture. This is my new desktop screen. Now to just get this on my phone!!! I don’t know how to pass the time until the book gets released. I have tried other series and they just can’t take the place of these books.

  49. Leilani L says

    August 25, 2010 at 9:33 pm

    I LOVE IT!!!

    I CANT WAIT!

    Bones is different in this one isnt he? Or he just looks really different here.

  50. Stella says

    August 26, 2010 at 7:27 am

    Cat & Bones are both very sexy.
    Those covers are really excellent.
    I can’t count how many times I have read the books and I’m getting very impatient & excited for the next book. I can’t wait til February…
    Before I saw the covers I was thinking that Cat could looks like Amanda Righetti (The Mentalist) an Bones like Eddie Cibrian (CSI: Miami 8th season).
    I’m not really wrong !!!
    Kisses from Switzerland.

    YES!!! Im So Absolutely Excited!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I’ve been waiting for the next Cat and Bones book!!! Keep it up Jeaniene, you’re my favorite author and I love you <3

  53. Angela says

    August 27, 2010 at 8:38 am

    These look fantastic!! I can’t wait for the next book to come out.

    Ok so this is a diversion…sort of. I have a thing for smart alecks. I am one and I am also a very honest person with a faulty filter on my mouth (my brutal honesty USUALLY isn’t intentionally brutal). I’m also an investigator and have had profiling and interviewing technique training so I can spot BS from a mile away. Sound familiar? No wonder I (like Cat) LOVE Vlad, he’s been my favorite character since he first appeared in the Night Huntress series (taking Bone’s place from the minute he arrived) and I think I loved him even more from Kira and Mencheres perspective. Thank you so much for Vlad and if there happens to be a Eternal Flame of Darkness in the near future (hint hint) I’d just be in hog heaven. ;o)
