Just got back from France last night, and have TONS of cool photos and videos to share. But I must get them organized first! Give me a day or two.

Alas, Justine won’t be at either of these events. But she says hi.
And check out this awesome trailer from the Portuguese publisher of Uglies, Vogais & Companhia:
Also, I like this photo from an interview in the French press. (Mmm . . . French press. Must get coffee now.)
UPDATE
This interview with Suvudu at New York Comic Con is also cool, in that I talk for 17 minutes without saying anything stupid:

Why to the places that speak Portuguese get THE best book covers?
November 18th, 2010 21:41
wow that trailor really did rock. like the cover, but ours is better.
November 18th, 2010 23:07
Sick cover! You look poised to take over the world in that photo there.
November 19th, 2010 02:07
Agreed, I like our cover better. But hurray forgien covers!
Is it sad that with my slight spanish skills I could read the Portugese trailer and get the basic point?
November 19th, 2010 03:38
Impressive! I for one think that the Portuguese cover is trippy. I like it better than ours! It really sets a certain mood for the book. Most covers don’t do that. The cover makes the book scream, “Read me! (I’m purple!)” It’s very futuristic and dangerous. Who doesn’t love a book with a lot of adventure in it? (I applaud the story’s dangerousness
)

That Portuguese trailer is awesome. I like the cover too, but agreeing with two other commenters, ours is cooler. That French photo of you reminds me of something…. but I can’t quite put my finger on it….
November 19th, 2010 08:23
Hmmm…. a terminator perhaps?
November 19th, 2010 10:23
sorry…but…that cover is my favotite ( please don’t kill me mr.president eek) and what song is that???
November 20th, 2010 07:41
You all are sooooo right!!!!! I bet that if the cover here looked like that I wouldn’t have such a hard time getting my friends to read the books…
November 20th, 2010 11:32
Cool trailer….but grr, who are they to call me imperfect!?
And you look so superior in the picture….sort of like a “I know how Goliath ends and you don’t!” sort of look.
November 20th, 2010 21:34
haha, Scott-la, when I saw the title, I thought it was a *movie* trailer.
…
and I was wrong!!!!!!!!! D:
November 20th, 2010 21:36
but the cover on the book is totally icy!
November 21st, 2010 03:46
BTW, I think that you look better without a beard than with a beard… not that you don’t look…. well normal with a beard, you look more like “I’m such a cool author and I know how all of my books will begin and end, and oh yeah, if you ever make me mad, I’ll set my book characters on you!!!! Mwhahahahahahaha!!!!!”
You seriously look like that without the beard…

I just found this cool song that talks about instanbul called well Istanbul by tiny tools any who read this should watch it it’s really good.=) xD
November 21st, 2010 07:59
FAWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!! That trailer was icy as heck and the purple cover is SWEET! I think our US cover matches the story better. But I like that cover! So Purple and futuristic!
November 23rd, 2010 04:25
I think the portuguese cover was cool, but it had this weird 90′s look, and the 90′s are… eek. anyway, as I’m brazilian, I like the brazilian cover better. it looks a lot like the american cover, if anyone wants to check it out… http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_G3_aGZYhYTk/TBxaaG_aQdI/AAAAAAAAAC0/SowZMXRPJ4k/s1600/40961154.jpg
November 28th, 2010 00:39
I like it but I think our american cover is the best!I liked the portuguese cover,brazilian cover.
December 6th, 2010 09:18
Man the cover is wicked on this. If I spoke Portuguese I would get it for the fact of how awesome it is haha. Gotta say I love the US cover the best still though, love how straightforward they are.
December 11th, 2010 00:02
I usually don’t like portuguese covers but I loved this one!

I am a HUGE fan of your Leviathan trilogy, well what is out of it so far. I would LOVE it if you were to make a movie out of the books, under the conditions that you make sure they stick to the actual book for the story line. (Don’t let it become Eragon, great book turned disaster movie.) I have yet to read any of your other books besides the first two of the leviathan trilogy but I will assuredly be going and buying a few more of them, and I will be purchasing Goliath as soon as it hits the shelves. Well there i go being a super-fan. ><

I know I’m late, but I have read the series 2 twice. Specials 3 times going on four….anyway love the cover!!! It’s so cool! Luv the purple!!!!
