Hey there, I'm Eric Quigley and I recently did this illustration for Michael Anderle's Kurtherian Gambit Rise of Magic series (on sale on Amazon!). It is being written by CM Raymond, LE Barbant, and Michael Anderle and edited by Candy Crum- great creative folks to work with.

I don't want to give away anything story related so I'll just say these guys hail from the original Kurtherian Gambit series. As the universe changes so do its inhabitants.

If you're interested in The Rise of Magic series book 1 can be purchased here: https://www.amazon.com/Restriction-Kurtherian-Gambit-Rise-Magic-ebook/dp/B06XPPXTKX

>Recent cover for Phil McCall's upcoming book Tyri. Painting these types of characters are always fun. The goal was to make a strong #Valkyrie type character without the wings.

From his facebook. Just searched "upcoming book Tyri" and it was the third result.

Here's a link to one of the books of the series.

  • Sources: one, two, three (I did an image search!)
  • Artist's site (check it out, a lot of cool character design)

    Artist comment:
    >Here is one for a novel called "The Questing Road".
    Some of you may remember a cover I did way back of a girl with a cat on her shoulder.
    This book, although not a sequel, does continue the story of that character.
    It was really fun to take a character that I had painted nearly 6 years ago and re-vamp her a bit.
    Oils on board, 12x18 inches:

    Here's the same character for another book.

    I actually copied the author name from another site that got it wrong. Here it is on the book, by Lyn McConchie.

His book is fantastic and has quite a few LotR paintings that I had not seen until I bought it: http://www.amazon.com/Middle-Earth-Visions-Modern-Donato-Giancola/dp/1599290472

She's also an elf.

And not wearing any clothing remotely resembling Egyptian fashion of any era.

I suspect the artist doesn't actually know what "Egyptian" means.

However, many Egyptian queens were "white". Cleopatra VII, for example, was part of the Ptolemaic dynasty. The Ptolemys were Macedonian Greeks who ruled the country as an elite class after Alexander the Great conquered it. They were "white" (although, at the time, that's not a racial distinction anyone would have made). Even before the Ptolemies, Egypt had been a multicultural crossroads for literally thousands of years and its racial makeup was thoroughly varied and mixed.

This, however, is a charged issue because African American scholars in the '70s began pushing an "afrocentric" agenda that attempted to reinterpret the history of the ancient world. (Check out Not Out of Africa for a pretty good survey of the issue from a rational viewpoint.) In addition to claiming that Alexander invaded the city of Alexandria in order to loot its library so that his childhood teacher Aristotle could steal the knowledge it contained and pretend that Greeks had invented a bunch of stuff that was actually "stolen" from Sub-Saharan Africans (none of which makes any sense whatsoever), they've also pushed hard on the idea that Egypt was actually a black nation founded by a Sub-Saharan civilization.

The Stormlight Archive by Brandon Sanderson.

You can keep your Steven Eriksons and your Patrick Rothfusses, this is the most enjoyable new fantasy series I've read in years.

Actually, I was kind of inspired by the gun on the cover of this book.

Yes, that's supposed to be Ben Franklin.
