It got an official, shiny reveal on Tor.com today. Several people there have already mentioned the D&D Draconomicon, and that's no accident: Todd Lockwood's line drawings in that book were one of the elements that inspired this series in the first place. So when I found out he was going to be doing the art for MY book . . . .
You can imagine my reaction. ^_^
And, the usual drill: I need an icon! And I have no Photoshop skills! If you make me an LJ icon out of that cover, and post it in the comments, I will pick one and send the winner my final ARC of A Natural History of Dragons. (Final for now; I'm sure I'll have more later.) The book itself won't be out until February of next year, so you'd be getting quite a jump on everybody else.
Now if you'll pardon me, I need to go off and make little eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee noises to myself for a while longer.

I couldn't fix the text fuzziness though without changing the format itself from the original print.
