I can’t thank Teddi Black enough for steering me in a fresh direction. Since my intention is to bring out the other Warhorse of Esdragon books, we knew we needed a series look, something distinct from the Wizard’s Destiny trilogy—though those books also contain Valadan, Tristan’s story is their true focus. Scene specific art wasn’t working, and so I designed a graphic I call the Warhorse Wheel. It’s based on a banner design I made years ago, versatile enough to use many ways. Here’s its first appearance.
