👻 Book Art – Whispers from the Ghosts

By SBibb on July 24, 2024

Today's book art leans into the horror of the Glitch Saga...

👻 * Whispers from the Ghosts * 👻
Distant Horizon Universe

A young man in a black uniform stands straight against a wall made of exposed muscle. His eyes glow red, as if possessed. Distressed faces stretch from the wall, and a body from the wall has grabbed him by the shoulder and the arm, and whispers into his ear.

Featuring: Tim and the (glitching) Legion Spore
Book: Whispers in the Code (Glitch #1)
Medium: Daz Studio 4.15 with Iray, and Photoshop CS5
Description: The Legion Spore is a horrifying monstrosity of technology created by the Camaraderie of Evil, which blends humans (specifically people with powers) and machine to create a living airship.
But it wasn't a smooth merge, and the people forced to link into the mainframe (and with each other) didn't want to be there. A few of the human components remembered fragments of who they had been before, and whenever the Legion Spore glitches, their "ghosts" take over. Their faces and forms appear in its walls, and Tim must fight to control the ship, and his sanity, because those whispers in the code can also whisper in his mind using telepathy.

(Side note... Whispers in the Code, the first ebook in the Glitch saga, is free! (Though sometimes Amazon raises the price again, it should be free on most retailers). If you like diving directly into the action of a story, have a go at it. But be warned... if you like a slower build up to what's going on, I'd recommend starting with Distant Horizon or Deceived first.)
