I got a nasty shock yesterday when I saw fellow bloggers posting this cover a day early, but a quick of my email showed that I put the wrong date in my calendar. So, welcome the Cover Re-Reveal, or Cover Confirmation, for Shannon Knight’s horror novel Domestication this morning! Artist Savanna Mayer (who will be showing up on this site in a Q&A with Shannon and me soon) brought the creepy. But I’ll share that in a minute. First, let’s learn a bit about the book.

About the Book:

In an eat-or-be-eaten world, domestication is a death sentence.

When Janie chose the isolated sheep farm, she knew her husband would hunt her down. What she didn’t expect was Rob and Howard. Rob rules the farm with the same domination tactics she uses to train dogs, while Howard believes only human supremacists think humans should be treated any differently than other animals. Janie inadvertently jumps out of the frying pan and into the fire. She wishes to leave her old self behind. She wants to transform. Will she devolve into meat, metamorphose into a monster, or transcend beyond her domesticated limitations?

Credit goes to Savanna Mayer for that little creepifying image you’ll see in your sleep tonight. I don’t know how many times I’ve looked at it since Shannon sent it to me, and I’m not sure I’ve spotted everything going on there…

Keep your eyes peeled for this book, folks. It’ll be out in a little less than a month and will be worth the wait!
