Cover Reveal, Part I: VODNÍK

It’s HERE! We are super excited to share the cover of Vodník by Bryce Moore, out this March from our Tu Books imprint. About the book:

Short version: Slovakian fairy tales! Roma characters! CASTLES!!

Long version: Vodník is a YA contemporary fantasy about Tomas, a Roma teen who moves with his family from the US back to Slovakia and discovers that the folk tale creatures he befriended as a young boy are more dangerous than he knew, especially a vodník who has begun drowning local townspeople (deaths for which Roma like Tomas are blamed). When he learns that his own cousin’s life is in danger, Tomas makes a deal with Death to save her – but can anyone cheat death forever?

And here, dear friends, is the cover in all its glory:

Extra points if you can see the vodník’s face in the background.

Stay tuned for part II, where we reveal the cover of Kimberly Pauley’s Cat Girl’s Day Off, also out this spring from Tu Books. And meanwhile, let us know what you think!

    Love this cover, and, yes, I can see the face in the background. So eerie!

    Sounds quite interesting! I’m wondering about that symbol on Tomas’ shirt.

    Edi, the symbol on Tomas’s shirt is Death/the Grim Reaper. It has a significance in the story, but I can’t tell you more than that until you read it! :)
