So, back when I blogged about my 2017, I mentioned a couple of mystery projects. The first one is a collaboration with my wife, Morgan Baden, about which I will have more to say at a later date.

Today, though, I am happy to pull back the curtain on the second mystery project:

Thanos cover

Yep, that’s Big Purple himself, Thanos. The Mad Titan. And yours truly has written (and is at this very moment playing hooky from revising) a novel about exactly how he got to the point that he could, y’know, credibly threaten to extinguish half the living souls in the universe.

It’s been a hell of a journey and it’s not over yet. I hope after y’all see Avengers: Infinity War next week that you’ll want to head into a bookstore in November and buy a copy of the book that builds on its mythology.

I’m sure there’ll be more to say in the next few months. But until then, enjoy that gorgeous cover!
