Back in the spring we announced the launch of our mammoth re-jacketing programme for books in Sherrilyn Kenyon’s Dark-Hunter® series.

Starting with the paperback edition of No Mercy (and a special re-issued version of Fantasy Lover) our design department has been hard at work creating iconic new covers for all 20 books in the Dark-Hunter ® series so far.

This month to celebrate the global release of Retribution, book 20 in the series, and in anticipation of the beautifully re-jacketed books 2-5 in the series (published this September) we are giving you the chance to design your own Dark-Hunter® cover for your chance to win fantastic prizes!

Simply download one of the cover templates included below and fill it in with your unique interpretation of your favourite Dark-Hunter® series title and you could be in with a chance of winning an entire set of re-issued Dark-Hunter® series books as and when they are released. Draw, paint, collage, stencil, take photographs or use any creative medium you’d like to create your cover, ensuring you include the title of the book your jacket is supposed to represent. Then email your image to us at designyourowndark-hunter@littlebrown.co.uk .

Not only will the winning design appear in a future news post here on www.sherrilynkenyon.co.uk, the creator of our favourite design will also win a new look copy of books 1-20 in the Dark-Hunter® series as and when they are released. Three runners up will also receive a copy of a new look Dark-Hunter ® series book of their choice.

Invincible, the electrifying second novel in the Chronicles of Nick series, is published in the UK today and to celebrate this awesome fact we have 12 copies of the book to give away!

Invincible, picks up where Infinity (book one in the series) left off. Teenager Nick Gautier has swapped fighting with his teachers for fighting the undead and he is fast learning to rely on his new found powers to protect the world from a kind of evil he could never before have imagined.

Then, just when he thinks things can’t get any worse, he wakes up to find himself enslaved in a world of shapeshifters and demons out to claim his mortal soul.

Nick is being groomed by the darkest of powers and if he doesn’t learn how to raise the dead by the end of the week, he will become one of them . . .

Exciting stuff! A scintillating extract can be found here.  (Important to note for any Kenyon newcomers, as with all of Sherrilyn’s titles Invincible is also great read as a standalone!)
