:D :D :D

I couldn't help myself I had to get that and the first book in the story (I love stories from the gold country so what the heck) along with a pre-order on Echo in the Bone for free shipping. Hopefully they don't hold the used paperbacks just for that.....

I'm dying to see what the other cover looks like. Can't find it online even at goodreads.

I absolutely love the Sands of Gold cover. When you get it could you please post who is the author of the cover? Out of curiosity.
