Interesting. Covenant is way hotter (and younger) here than in my minds eye. Of course that might just be because I am like 30 years older than when I first read the books. I started off reading about an older man than me and now I'm reading about a younger man than me. Ahhhhh, the eternal life of the written hero.................
I like the artwork, it is consistent with the other covers. Not sure I understand the outfit but maybe that will be revealed in the book to follow.

I don't think that's Covenant. Look at his fingers. No half-hand.
I think that is going to be Harrow. Or Kevin?
Either way... I like it.

Its definitely the Harrow! He has beads on his leather clothing and he is all in brown!

Well, he's got the Staff of Law, so...
Kinda hoping it aint the Harrow.

is it The Staff? there aren't any runes carved into it (it doesn't look like) and didn't The Staff turn black during Linden's fight with Roger and the croyel under the Skyweir?
idk, just throwing it out there! lol

Too right! I've had a huge crush on him ever since he turned up in FR and twiddled his beads!

Well, THANK YOU! I actually posed for this painting. They added the beard and 'stache, of course.

Ah, I *knew* he looked familiar! Just couldn't put my finger on it! But now you've said it: the resemblance is striking!!!

...actually, I've just been looking at the Harrow's groin. Where are his beads?
...I dream of them beads!!!
...I think I'd better stop there!!!

Sea, I think Romeo just didn't tell you about the alternate painting of him that was deemed too risqué.
You're a dedicated man, Romeo, going above and beyond the call of duty!
I get it now: all the Last Chronicles covers are adhering to the strict design of a centrally posed figure. Shall we start making bets as to who will be on The Last Dark?
(I do like these covers, Mr. Palencar, but where are the hawt ladies of the Chronicles? It's all been guys holding staffs so far. That sounds Freudian, but you know what I mean.)

My only observation so far is that the editors seem to be asking for the characters with funky eyes. Wildwood, Esmer, The Harrow (which is who I assume this is - the picture came to me without caption or explanation *grin*).

Not to cast aspersions on what Sea and Romeo have had to say in-thread, but aren't they (along with Jenn) sworn to secrecy in regard to any aspect of the content of the forthcoming volume? Do we need to treat all this as misdirection?
Just sayin'...

Or maybe telling the truth is all a PART of the misdirection.

Don't, my first reaction was that it was good 'ol Covenant, and we all know I'm not dumb

excuse my ignorance, but there's a cover with Esmer on it ?
I did a wee Google search but couldnt find anything - anyone have a link ?
