Looks great, although I think the costume should be green.

It is, if you look closely. The artist is using artistic license by using a blue/black scheme overall. The mask and the coat do actually have green in them.

Otherwise, sure. I dig what you're saying.

Thank you most sincerely. It's a feeling that honestly never, ever gets old for me. In fact, it's one of the things that motivates me to write, to get to the finish line and have a published book in my hands.

Thanks! This is bucket-list territory for me!

I don't know the artist personally, but his name is Joel Naprstek.

Did you approach them with this story idea?
I'm curious how this happened for you.

In a way, yes. I had already written a Kolchak novel for Moonstone, so when I heard they had the Hornet license back I asked if i could pitch a story. The pitch was accepted and I wrote the novel.

Thanks! Since Moonstone doesn't put books on Amazon, you'll have to let me know what you thought about it here or on Facebook!
