The Fallen Star series:

Flesh & Bone

(Benny Imura, #3)
Jonathan Maberry
Release date: September 11st, 2012
by Simon & Schuster

Reeling from the tragic events of Dust & Decay, Benny Imura and his friends plunge deep into the zombie-infested wastelands of the great Rot & Ruin. Benny, Nix, Lilah and Chong journey through a fierce wilderness that was once America, searching for the jet they saw in the skies months ago. If that jet exists then humanity itself must have survived…somewhere. Finding it is their best hope for having a future and a life worth living.

But the Ruin is far more dangerous than any of them can imagine. They are hunted by fierce animals escaped from zoos and circuses. They must raid zombie-infested towns for food and medical supplies. They discover the very real truth in the old saying: In the Rot & Ruin…everything wants to kill you.

And what is happening to the zombies? Swarms of them are coming from the east, devouring everything in their paths. These zoms are different. Faster, smarter, infinitely more dangerous. Has the zombie plague mutated, or is there something far more sinister behind this new invasion of the living dead?

He’s b-a-a-ack! Despite their best efforts, Carter and Sade Kane can’t seem to keep Apophis, the chaos snake, down. Now Apophis is threatening to plunge the world into eternal darkness, and the Kanes are faced with the impossible task of having to destroy him once and for all. Unfortunately, the magicians of the House of Life are on the brink of civil war, the gods are divided, and the young initiates of Brooklyn House stand almost alone against the forces of chaos.

To find the answer they need, the Kanes must rely on the murderous ghost of a powerful magician who might be able to lead them to the serpent’s shadow… or might lead them to their deaths in the depths of the underworld…

The Kane Chronicles series:
Shift
(The Protector, #2)
M.R. Merrick
Release date: February 1st, 2012

Devastated by the loss of his mother, Chase is trying to balance the life he’s been left with, a family he’s still getting to know, and power he never thought he’d have. He doesn’t understand why the Goddess has named him the Protector and granted him two gifts: the Mark, a tattoo that now covers his back, and the ring. But between getting interrogated by the Circle and psychic attacks from Riley, the Mark is the least of his concern. There’s a demon inside Rayna that’s fighting to be released, and it’s not her inner witch. It’s something else–a monster threatening to tear her apart.

As Chase struggles to control his magic, his enemies are closing in. Everyone has staked a claim on his ring, and destroying it may be his only chance to stop Riley. But Chase must decide if stopping him is worth risking the lives of everyone he cares about, or if protecting the ring will be enough to save his world.

The Protector series:

So, any thoughts on these new covers? I find they’re all really intense, but I like them.The cover for Rebel Hearts matches the paperback cover of Blood Red Road. I’m not sure if they plan to make one to match the Hardcover design. But I think I prefer these ones.

    Okay, I’m not a big fan of the new Blood Red Road/Rebel Hearts covers. They just look…like any other paranormal romance on the shelf (and they’re not!). Meh. Thanks for sharing!

    Another cover change! Thats disappointing to me. I just bought the Blood Red Road hardcover and loved it. I dislike Rebel Hearts cover, the new Blood Red Road one is ok. Ahh none of my covers match anymore 🙁

    Real nice covers! Although sadly I prefer the covers for the previous books for all series. o: I think my favorite is Dust Lands! I love the contrast of it.

    I am excited for Serpent’s Shadow, and I LOVE the cover for it!! and definitely Rebel Hearts. All though, the cover of Rebel Hearts is nothing like Blood Red Road, and I wish they’d keep the theme to the first book. Truthfully, I wish it wasn’t a trilogy, either. But I’m still excited!
