Calla anchors the Nightshade trilogy so getting her right is essential - that has always happened and I couldn't be more thrilled!!!" "I love all the covers and I feel so lucky to have such a talented design department handling my books. Penguin had photo shoots for both designs. Her name is Amber and she is the perfect Calla. "The covers (both the originals, shown below, and the new designs) all feature the same model. "There were some small tweaks - usually about getting the color of Calla's eyes just right. The concept is that she is crouched under the moon about to shift into wolf form. "The Wolfsbane cover: First of all it's green! My favorite color! I think it continues the theme of depicting Calla's strength. The poem is one of Margaret Atwood's and its first stanza is 'Not you I fear but that other/she who walks through flesh/queen of the two dimensions.' The new Nightshade cover (right) drew on the poem that inspired Calla's character. To me the new covers depict Calla perfectly. "When I first saw the new covers, I was thrilled. "I didn't have a specific idea for the cover, but it always involved wolves and blood. Seriously.Īnd now she has a newly redesigned paperback! Plus, the second novel in the Nightshade trilogy, Wolfsbane, was just released. Andrea Cremer shared the Cover Story for the hardcover of Nightshade last year, and since then I have eaten pizza with her and can confirm that she's as awesome as the books she writes.
