About that illustration…
That, friends, is a piece of original artwork by Jeff Doten, who we have worked with on many projects and who is both a talented artist and a pleasure to work with. (A rare combination, believe me.) In fact, we like Jeff so much, we commissioned him to redo the cover art for the entire Scout series. (Never mind the July 20 on the banner below; that was July 20, 2021. I really need to get an updated banner.)
If you like what we’re doing here at Stupefying Stories and want to support us, check out these books. They make great gifts for that YA reader you know who’s just starting to get into science fiction, and grown-ups love ‘em too!
