Edge eBook new cover artwork

I love the new look - the cover was created by artist, Tony Masero and by combining two of his original paintings he has created an all new look for Edge's foray into the digital world.

I'm so pleased with the design, especially the lettering of the word Edge - It is also fitting that the razor is so prominent as the rather nasty weapon was a trademark of the character - it looks awesome and is a fitting painting to bring back the legend of the Wild West. It is also superb that Tony is involved in bringing these classic westerns back - Terry and I did discuss going with an all new look but only for a second and were ecstatic when Tony came through with the goods. As a fan of the original series I think I would have been disappointed without the classic cover feel. But what Tony has given us is both contemporary and traditional. Anyone interested in finding out more about the artist I direct them to the interview over on Western Fiction Review.

Next - I will publish for the first time digitally, a 1979 article by Edge author, Terry Harknett entitled - Writing Westerns.
