I am delighted to reveal the cover for Aaron Rosenberg’s Yeti Left Home, recently funded as a part of our Fantastic Novels campaign, along with Keith R.A. DeCandido’s Phoenix Precinct and Ef Deal’s Esprit de Corpse. The cover art and design, created by Mike McPhail of McP Digital Graphics, perfectly captures the essence of this quirky urban fantasy-meets-cryptid-adventure. If you missed our Kickstarter, you can pre-order all of the titles via the eSpec Books online store.

Sonnier, Carol Gyzander, Amy Grech, Alp Beck, Ty Drago, and Danielle Ackley-McPhail.

Small-Town Yeti, Big-City Problems

Peaceful, unassuming Wylie Kang—a Yeti with an appreciation for more human creature comforts—lives a quiet life in his self-built sanctuary on the outskirts of Embarrass, Minnesota. But when violent dreams disturb his peace, and a series of strange murders plague the area, a Hunter comes to town, nosing after Wylie’s trail.

Fleeing pursuit, Wylie packs up his truck and heads for the Twin Cities, hoping to lose himself in the urban jungle, only to find a thriving supernatural community. Just as he begins to settle in—with the help of some new-found friends—he discovers the bloodshed has followed… as has the Hunter.

Can Wylie catch the killer, before the Hunter catches him?
