Thanks for asking! The reason it changed is because although I thought that painting came out looking okay, I wasn’t nearly as happy with the painting that I did for the second book. Since the trilogy is really one story split into three sections, having the covers look like a “set” seemed an important consideration, so we decided to release the series with the alternate “iconic” covers first, and then re-release with the illustrative covers later. It may take us a while, though, I’ve got two other projects that were put on hold so that I could do artwork for Across a Jade Sea, and I’m probably going to need to get at least partially caught up on those, before I can move on to reworking that second painting.
What happened to the original cover drawing. The picture looks more adventurous than a plastic necklace plastered on the cover.
I hope you reconsider. The drawing put you in the mindset that you were in for a real adventure.
