Je ne parles pas francais

Being a functional monoglot, I just assume that "Editions Mnémos (24 avril 2008)" means that this book is actually available in print.

Which I find of at least nominal interest, as I haven't been paid the publication advance for it...

And shall we have another chorus of "There's a Bimbo on the cover of the book"?  Guns, specifically .45 Colt M1911 and variants, don't work in the Summer Country...

Likewise for:

http://www.amazon.fr/Royaume-l%C3%A9t%C3%A9-James-Hetley/dp/2070346943/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1216234289&sr=1-2

Who is that broad???  Gray would be Fiona, but she'd never be caught dead in that costume.

The Seigneur L'Hiver cover reminds me of Modesty Blaise. (I know she carried a .45 on occasion.)

As for Le Royaume de l'ete, I suppose it might be Fiona wearing some sort of weird direction-finding headset? Certainly being forced to wear something like that would explain her less-than-sunny disposition.

Like I told Jim Hines above, the Seigneur L'Hiver art will probably sell books. I'm just not sure who or what it's supposed to represent. Not that covers have to have any relation to contents...

Anyway, I _think_ that could be Dierdre outside the Pendragon headquarters, where firearms _do_ work. Doesn't explain the shadowy dragon, though.

Wife thinks the clothing and general attitude are Jo, and the Colt is just artistic license.

The dingbat in the headgear, on the other hand, is just a dingbat. I think Bill may have nailed it.
