It's time for #BeyondTheCover, where we show you the amazing art behind our gorgeous book covers!
Today we are showcasing the art created by @dave.seeley Seeley for Thieves’ Sky by Wil McCarthy.
About the artist:
Dragon Award Nominee Dave Seeley is an award-winning science fiction and fantasy artist living in Boston. He trained in architecture and fine art, but after ten years as a distinguished architect, he was seduced by the glamour of illustration and derailed his career for the far more immediate gratification of image making. Obscured ephemeral glimpses of perfection fuel his search for subjects and paint marks. In his words, “God — and the devil — is in the details.”
About the book:
WHO OWNS THE SKY?
The Trillionaires Are At It Again! Can Pirates Save Us?
“A hard science fiction tour de force, populated by memorable characters in a tale of intrigue, adventure, and irresistible market forces.” —Linda Nagata
Trillionaire oligarchs jockey for control of space resources, while rogue AIs prowl the Internet. Meanwhile, a dangerous alien technology—the Fracture—has fallen into the hands of pirates. The balance of power, already precarious, has tumbled Cislunar space into an undeclared war. Now, in a race against time, the crew of the CV Defender must track the pirates to their lair before the Fracture destroys the entire Solar system. But in a world this complex, who, exactly, are the good guys?
