It’s the beginning of the month, so it’s time to post another delicious piece of Keith’s art for Leviathan! So here, direct from Chapter 4, is “Ascending.”
Illustration by Keith Thompson
In case you missed it, here’s the first piece of art I revealed, also from Chapter 4. And here’s the cover.
So what is this picture? Well, that would be spoiling, so you’ll have to wait until October 6 to find out.
Enjoy!
And don’t forget, you can pre-order Leviathan from pretty much anywhere!

TZ: Phew! i thought i was the only 1! Maybe there were 2 many comments on that page… hmmm…
missed the fireworks. again.
hmph. and i missed the AAR concert in vegas on the 3rd, but im going today. of all the things to complain about.
july is not my happy month. and when i get back i will have, oh 5 days to pack for summer camp. meteor anyone?
and i had to get up at like 10 today. arrrrgh i am so not a morning person. but theres nothing to do so what should i do but go on the computer?
Okay, ya…I don’t know! I hope it doesn’t stay like that!
OMG….Im not a mornong person either….i wake up at noon like every morning… i like to sleep.
We had awsome fireworks! I went to SeaWorld to watch theirs, and it was cool! Haha I like heard the Stars and Strips Forever like 5 times yesterday!! Lol I didn’t care because I love that song… I’m listening to it right now in fact! Hehe I love Independence day! I can’t wait for it to come around again next year!! lol
Oh I forgot to mention that one of those 5 times I heard the Stars and Stripes Forever, it was played live by a band at the Witte Museam! And they were great! Hehe
amazing.
AND I CANT WAIT TILL OCTOBER =]]
oh and this has nothing to do with leviathon and i may just be totally obsessive, but in bubbly to bogus, it says that zane gave info about the smoke to dr cable because they threatened to not make him pretty, but then in pretties he tells tally that they threatened to make him special like one of them…
im confused.
and sry if im being totally anal and overemphasizing stupid things.
=]
That’s really cool! I can’t wait to read it.
Wow! Awesome piccture. I cannot WAIT until the book comes out!
Love the pic! I so can not wait for Leviathan to come out!!!
Nice pic; can’t wait for the book. 🙂
Canada Day! Woot!
(I think Im pretty much alone on that :(…….whoz with me)
I was camping on Canada Day…..good times
*cries* Worst. Day. EVER. Panic at the Disco is breaking up. Ryan Ross and Jon Walker are leaving the band. I can’t freaking believe it, this is AWFUL.
T&Z: I totally understand. Sucks when bands break up NSYNC etcetc
i just payed guitar hero for 4 hours straight and finished all of the wadducallthem…gigs. I feel so bogus. my brain is all thought missing and my pinky and both thumbs hurt. bloodshot eyes. i never want to play guitar hero again. or at least not for a couple of weeks. ahhh! im seeing the screen in front of my eyes!
i wish i could be a special for halloween. cuz i have these body crayons. and one coems in black so i could do a simpler version of tally’s flash tatoos. =]
Scott I have a question!!!!
I just read Mind Rain and I am dying to know… is Shay in love with Tally???
This is juat a random question, but Is the book Mind Rain good?
well yeah, tally is shays friend. but “in love”? i probably wouldnt go that far. depends on wat u mean…
Wow, everyone seems to have abandoned this lovely page and gone back to the uglies movie page. What a shocker.
ping to zane and tally haha! i know!
i’m sooo bored!
i can not wait!!!!!!1
Yeah I know in the books they’re supposed to be bff almost like sisters but in mind rain there’s this essay which argues that shay was in love with tally and it kinda got me thinking…
And to Ashley-wa yes it’s good there are a lot of interesting essays that just make u see everything from a different perspective and stuff.
why would Shay be in love with Tally???????????? that’s kinda weird!
Well, maybe she developed a crush on her over the years of them being together. That can happen between friends.
And even though she had crushes on guys, it doesn’t mean she can’t have crushes on girls to. ;D
I must say… the book is really quite good. Perhaps I shouldn’t be saying this here, but I don’t know where else I can talk to the author directly! I know, I know; I won’t reveal anything here, because spoilers are bad. But the story is great, and the illustrations are beautiful. It seemed very expository, though; I’m sure it sets up the next one in the series quite well, so I’m not complaining. Kudos, you!
you must be a really good writer if you get this good of an artist!i want to read it…but the thing is i dont know what its about!oh whatever,i’ll read it anyways! nice art!
I have a few things to say! XD
1. That artwork is totally pretty-making and makes me feel all… artsy. I’m an artist myself, so seeing something so original and new is totally joygasming. (which is my word XD) Anyway!
2. YOU NOTICED US! o////////////////////0 you should know that we at ( bubbly is bogus ) are totally stoked. Don’t worry, we aren’t going to go all brain-missing on you or anything, but we’re so happy that we were noticed. I, personally, fell like it’s an honor ^_^ And we are friendly, so, to everyone else, if you want to join us, totally don’t be shy! We’re pretty laid back and have interesting plots and stuff. Scott-wa, you’re awesome. We’d like to see you eventually, if you ever got the time 😀
and
3. The causing of the break up of Panic and the Disco was the drop of the !. Because it was no longer PANIC! at the disco… the members freaked (jkjk.)
ping to Ghostie-la wat exactly is bogus 2 bubbly? like i know its a book but u said “we at bogus to bubbly” and it confused me up a bit! so plz blog bak! thanks!
Scott-Sensi
Don’t you normaly NOT post?
Bee- thanks! maybe i’ll ask 4 it 4 my b-day cause im broke and it hasn’t come to any library near me yet. =D btw: my b-day in the same day as tally and shay’s September 9th, this year 9-9-09!
<3 l8er!
This guy’s artwork looks a lot like James Jean’s (my favorite artist, evar). Very smooth and surreal and beautiful, but at the same time, there’s some creepiness lingering beneath the surface.
Here are some examples:
He’s done lots of work for comics, including Fables, my favorite comic series, evar.

http://www.jjeanius.net/images/FablesCovers/Fables52Painting.jpg
Here’s his gallery, you’ll see he’s done stuff for Prada.
http://www.jamesjean.com/
And he did My Chemical Romance’s Black Parade artwork, which should appeal to many of you, mebbe.
So thank you for letting me forcefeed my favorite artist to you fine folks. Good day, now.
Oh, and ghostie, I’m pretty torn up over the Panic at the Disco thing. Funny theory, though. But I’m optimistic. And they’re wonderful.
(scott, since I see that my previous reply awaits moderation, I’m guessing that this can be combined to preserve space) The end.
omg i just glanced up and realized that Alwyn-sensei commented about My Chemical Romance’s The Black Parade. from now on i shall call anyone who mentions MCR a -Sensei.
ping to Alwyn-SENSEI(lol): have you read Gerard way’s The Umbrella Academy? its a comic book, and yeah. if u did, is it good? cuz i waz thinking about getting it at borders or something if they have it. if not, ill just order it online. hope its not utterly overpriced. cuz that would be majorly-bogus.
i spent today killing zombies on that House of Dead vid game at the arcade. it wz one of those really heavy shooty machines wow i actually forgot wat they’re called, and after 2 hrs my hand was permanently curled into the shape of the pumpy reloady thing. no idea wat its called.
and—and. at this other hotel like 30 min from vegas i went on the DESPERADO. i now understand the word Bubbly. i totally get how tally felt from dropping off that roof with peris.
and i get why tally would put so much effort into being bubbly. it is so totally worth it (especialy when there is not wait for the coaster) to have those few minutes of awesomeness. that first drop did it for me, i think it was…225 feet?
OMG i didn’t get to see fireworks! And I CANNOT wait till Leviathan comes out! ♥
leviathan is going to be an awesome book! i cannot wait for it to come out 🙂
awesome pic!!
urgh bored…almost 1am and i’m still not asleep…i’m just sorta wasting time on fanfiction…addicting!!! 😆
PING back to Riva-la: Aha, no I haven’t read the umbrella academy, buuut James Jean did the cover art for that too! I love connections. If I do read it, though, I’ll probably steal it from my friend who owns it.
W00ts for Leviathan!
im reading the entire uglies trilogy again
ping to riderchilde-wa =D: ur emoticon is staring and smiling at me. a little freaky. lol.
PING to Alwyn: oh thats so cool i totally envy ur friend. luckyyyyyyyyyy.
isnt leviathan out already? im confused
ok there is another Amy-La so at the end of all of my meesages i’ll put a smiley face and i’ll say a rhyme cuz i love to rhyme! 8)
i like oranges, but i hate door henges!
hehe!
8)
Leviathan is an awesome book!!!!! I read it during a summer reading club for my local bookstore and its awesome!!!!!!! I only have to wonder though, whens the sequel coming out? and if theres not going to be one then I’m just gonna like, I don’t know. there better be one though!
ha! i got spot 100. totaly pointles but then again, so is memorizing 41 digits of pi. pointless can be fun *__*
