#Audiobook deal! Get @gabino.bsky.social's COYOTE SONGS, ZERO SAINTS, THE DEVIL TAKES YOU HOME, and HOUSE OF BONE AND RAIN for under $16, or just $3.99 each at Chirp Books! #amreading #ad #booksky tinyurl.com/yjftpzmx
Cover for Gabino Iglesias' COYOTE SONGS. The title is in white in the center, with Gabino's name, also in white, at the bottom. Behind the text a statue of a woman stares down. It starts with red on the top, morphing to green below. Oh, yeah, there's blood splatter on the very bottom, so there's that.Cover for Gabino Iglesias' ZERO SAINTS. The title is just below center in white, with Gabino's name below that in cursive in black. A sugar skull is above the title, surrounded by roses (? I'M NOT A FLORIST) on the left, right and bottom. The color is red on the top, blending to green. Just like Christmas. A very Gabino Christmas.
Cover for Gabino Iglesias' THE DEVIL TAKES YOU HOME. The base is black, and there's red running from the top, turning to green as it hits the bottom. There is a completely white figure (save for the black eyes) walking toward you. You remember back in the day when True Crime novels would have pictures of the victims, but they were all white, like whiteout was used? That's what this dude looks like.

In black is the title coming down from the top, each word getting its own line.Cover for Gabino Iglesias' HOUSE OF BONE AND RAIN. The title is in black on the top half, with Gabino's name in white in the bottom. In the center sits a house with a yellow roof and porch, burgundy (?) walls, and a peach door and window frames. The sky is a mixture of green and lime green and the ground is a mixture of purple and black. Except that black part is forming a skull.
