From Bullington’s blog:
This new novel, titled Hook and Cod, takes place in the Low Countries shortly after the Saint Elizabeth Flood of 1421 devastated the region and complicated aggressions between the local warring factions of the Hoekse and the Kabeljauwse–the Hooks and the Cods.
It’s wonderful to see authors like Bullington continuing to find success in taking ‘REAL LIFE’© history and turning it towards the fantastic. Fans of Tim Powers, author of The Anubis Gates, should take note. It’s being published by Orbit Books and, based on the previous covers for Bullington’s novels (like the one posted above and THIS one), I can’t wait to get a glimpse at the cover art.

Oh this is supercool! I actually got taught about the Hoeken en Kabeljauwen in elementary school history class. I can’t wait to see how Bullington tackles this bit of Dutch history :D
[…] this is the novel that was first announced as Hook and Cod, first announced over a year ago. I prefer The Folly of the World. viaOrbit Books tagsArtCover ArtFantasyJesse BullingtonOrbit […]
