I hope that’s supposed to be _Ninefox Gambit_.
Yesss…. And now it is!
I still think Ninefox Gambit is a fantasy in the Metropolitan mode… 🙂 But yay! It gets my vote.
I hate it when sites give covers but don’t also type the author and title. Sometimes I can’t read the cover through the cover art, or it uses a difficult font. Example: the “best horror” candidate third down, farthest left. NO idea what that book is, or who it’s by.
“Semifinialists”? Is that half a finial, or a whole finial on one end only?
The title is “My Best Friend’s Exorcism.” Click on the cover and it gets bigger. Hit the “control” key and scroll with your mouse and it gets bigger still. But yeah, it would be great to have the title and author typed.
On Windows with a Chrome browser at least, I get a pop-up with title, author, and more when I hover over the cover. Clicking the cover goes to the book’s Goodreads page.
