I am so stoked to have found this simply amazing picture, and that Jacob was able to obtain it for the cover!

Now we just have to work out the logo and such...

Not only is it a really slick piece of art--it also ties in (although a bit tangentially, I admit) with one of the two remaining stories waiting to be accepted for the anthology.

How's that for a teaser?

This is the kind of cover that makes someone want to buy the book!  It's mysterious, sort of.  stark.  And the robot really stands out.  :)
