Perfect
I think you mean
Puurrrrrrrfect
LOL!
I loved those books I have all 17 of them
Wow that’s amazing !!
I said it on Twitter, this is … well, it’s better than amazing! This is so close to my mental picture of Curran…
I am simply in awe… =)
I like her work and envious of her talent. Some amazingly talented people in this world!
Ohhh. I thought it was Lion Curran looking at Derek.
Stunning.
Absolutely
Gorgeous!
I saw some pics and Subterranean Press had a snippet on their FB page yesterday. And I called my hubby for the millionth time to make sure he did preorder a copy for me. I am so excited for this book!
*sigh*
Just wanted to order, but… but… shipping… ;__;
$75 for the book, $59 for shipping to Germany… >.>
My Dears, I love you and your books very, very much, but that’s just… too much. ;___;
Yep, I had that with a previous book. I had finally convinced myself I needed a $75 book. But I backed out at the shipping cost.
No pressure to buy. 🙂 This is an expensive book for serious collectors. ::waves paws:: I think that after the book is release, there will be prints available, too, if you just want artwork and it’s much more reasonable.
Here kitty kitty
Curran is really looking like Gordon…
This amuses me. I now want to see him wearing cat ears at a book signing.
*Cackles maniacally*
Truly this is amazing artwork, and it’s purrfect.
I thought this as well. Glad I’m not the only one.
WOW!!!!
Wearing pack sweats. A great touch!
Majestic.
Beautiful.
Can I say that about Curran?
Maybe I should say strikingly handsome instead.
So, you going to be able to get her to do your covers for future works, because she’s pretty much hitting your characters dead-on?
Lovely artwork.
Very excellent visual for Curran. Kudos to the artist!
Love, love, love this…
I’m in love… again.
First! (Hopefully!) Plus, pretty!
… and now I see all the other comments that didn’t show up before ????♀️
Lol
Just to have the art I would buy this. The illustrations done for your stories are always beautiful
It makes me feel like a teenager for wanting the artwork as posters to stick all over my bedroom wall
Sound reasonable.
I imagine Curran as Jason Mamoa, if you ever make a movie from Kate’s series please consider it????
Momoa (sorry)
I can see him as Hugh too. There are looks he gives in Aquaman that could be considered Hugh looks.
He would have to dye his hair for Curran.
I can’t really get enthusiastic about Momoa since he got offended that his female costar was reading, and ripped pages out of her book. Dick move if ever there was one.
Pardon me while I go reread all of KD ????
I know! This art is perfect! It totally made my day!
Stunning!
WOW!
Did Gordon pose for this? ????
Wow. I’m officially adding this to my Christmas list. This is fantastic!
♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡
Luv it luv it luv it
Mmm… “Here kitty, kitty” indeed…
????
Here kitty kitty
Not at all how I visualize Curran. That’s what I love about books though. We can create our own mental picture of each character based on the author’s descriptions.
Perfect
The is fantastic! Makes me want said book terribly.
It’s SO nice to see a depiction of Curran in his lion form as GRAY lion. I’d love to see a side view with the stripes, too! This is a fantastic image! Thank you for sharing!
Will the artwork be in a new electronic ebook version as well? (I am not allowed to buy any more physical books.)
SO EXCITED!!! Got mine ordered! Please let us know if any more of the signed lettered edition become available. I shouldn’t have hesitated and just pre-ordered it but paying for college doomed me *shakes fist at university*.
Will there ever be another edition of the Innkeeper Chronicles Volume One? I missed out on the first edition.
Fabulous! Nailed Curran in both shapes.
Just wow.
Words don’t make pictures for me. So thanks for awesome pictures.
Huh. So that’s what he looks like.
I have a pretty clear image of Kate in my head but Curran was pretty much just greyish blonde fur on legs, with a gaping maw who constantly roared. And yet I shipped the hell out of him and Kate. I might be an unconscious furry.
I think that looks like Gordon! (I always suspected that K & C were based on I & G!) Ilona is probably an expert swordsman, too!
Wow! That is gorgeous. And that is close to Curran in my head. I’m glad the art will be available separately eventually. I would definitely buy it!
I’m so ridiculously happy I ordered a copy.
♡ INCREDIBLE ♡
Gorgeous!
Wow! So happy I pre-ordered the book. ☺️
I’m dead. Just dead. This is so perfect.
Does Louisa have any versions where Curran’s hair is long, like when there’s a flare? I’d love to see him with a full mane.
Or when Curran kept eating all the demi gods in Magic Triumphs. His hair got really long then.
Reminds of the Rutger Hauer character in the original release of Blade Runner..near the end when he is in the rain.
Thank you!! I knew he reminded me of someone but was groping for who it was…Not really how I pictured Curran in my head, but then again it strikes a chord, so I may have to adjust my mental landscape 🙂
Stunning scene. Stunning Rutger. The only movie of him that I saw where they let Rutger act, which he could seriously do, and not just swing a sword and look gorgeous .
I thought Rutger Hauer did some fine acting in Ladyhawke, too. Although he was also gorgeous swinging his sword and, yum!, especially on that incredible horse of his. Actually, the best-looking male in that movie was Hauer’s stallion. Awesome.
Amazing!
I thought this as well. Glad I’m not the only one.
OMG, that is THE sexiest, most dangerously compelling image ever, ever, ever. Wow. I’ve gotta go back and read all the Kate/Curran books again, right this minute, with that image dominating the movie screen my mind. Wooooo (fanning self).
Wow… that’s totally purrrfect! My Curran. Lol
YESSSS!!!
Beautiful & an excellent depiction of his spirits
Oh my God, just perfect !
If I weren’t in the midst of dealing with an elderly father about to enter hospice due to stage 4 prostate cancer, a possible spread of my own cancer, and disability from spinal disease keeping me on a very fixed income from disability, I’d be all over buying a copy. The artist is tremendously talented and the artwork matches what I’ve pictured in my head when reading the stories. Fantastic job on bringing Kate and Curran to visual life and, of course, making already mesmerizing stories that much more vivid. Bravo to you all!
Gorgeous!!
I keep re-reading the books and I was so thankful for God of Fire.
So amazing! It is nice to see his human side as well as the lion!
Wow, great art.
Will it be possible to purchase that as a poster perhaps?
That lion looks like he has a sense of humor. 😀
Great art, thanks for sharing!
Here kitty, kitty, kitty.
I love it. this series truly is my favourite addiction I have read most of them so many times I can quote sections of dialog.the pic as great. if only he will live forever like kate
Wow. I just can’t stop looking at it. This is everything Curran and I’ve just fallen in love with him all over again! The broken nose, the short hair, the ripped gray hoodie, and the EYES (on both man and lion). Ow, my heart.
This picture is so completely amazing. I also would like to know if it could be purchased. Hats off to the artist!
I see hints of Gordon in Curran. I’m looking forward to the books release.
hello
the excerpt with Julie, Kate and Curran moving into the new house, has that been released (put on the blog) before?
I had a quick look and couldn’t see it.
thanks
Yeah, I dont think it was finished though. Maybe the rest is in the book!
????
I wish the series wasn’t over. I long to read more about Kate and Curran and the crew. Makes my heart ache. That and I want to take a bath with Kate and Curran at the same time à la Magic Strikes, but not truncated.
Damn that’s awesome!!
The eyes are hypnotic. You can definitely see the alpha in both man as well as animal.
I do like those eyes. The headlights are on!
Oooooooh, that looks gorgeous! And do indeed immediately tells you it’s Curran – both of ’em 😀
Wow. Just, wow.
It tickles me that his nose has that bump from having been broken…
I’m late to the comment train here, but I wanted to say thank you for posting this. This art really helped me to visualize a character with whom I really had some trouble. Specifically, I couldn’t visualize the description that Curran also looked like he was a hair from violence and that he would be very competent in handling everything that came toward him. This art was really effective at communicating both of those things and I can now have a great picture of him in my mind when reading the books. Again, thank you!
Oh, wow, all collector edition art pieces you shared are beyond beautiful.
Louisa Preissler did a great job.
I love your males pov. I would love to have more:
Curran… when Kate “dies”. His hunt for divine beasts…
Rogan… i wish we could read his side of when they watch Cornelius’s Wife’s death, the charity gala Nevada breaking Vincent but most of all either when she wakes up with Rynda trying to get Connor back or the trials
Alessandro… the trials or when he saw her profil and she deletes it. When he realise she is in the abandoned mall all alone….
