Lagoonfire, the sequel to The Inconvenient God--or shall we say, the second in the Tales of the Polity--has a cover!

Art this time by Susan Lavoie.
And it has a back blurb for the paperback edition:
Soon it'll be available for preorder! It's long enough--a novella rather than a novelette--that the publisher can send it to places like Publisher's Weekly to review... I am dying of hope and anxiety!

And it has a back blurb for the paperback edition:
The past can be a difficult thing to escape…
Decommissioner Thirty-Seven is not the most conventional decommissioner at the Ministry of Divinities, but she takes her role of helping fading gods to retire seriously—and feels bad when things go wrong. Take the decommissioning of Laloran-morna, former god of warm ocean waves: she botched that, somehow, and now he spurts saltwater when upset. When seawater invades a development project in Laloran-morna’s old haunts, suspicion naturally falls on him. But is the retired god the source of the problem? Or is it the work of a mortal saboteur? Searching for the answer to these questions brings Thirty-Seven face-to-face with a past she’d rather forget.
Soon it'll be available for preorder! It's long enough--a novella rather than a novelette--that the publisher can send it to places like Publisher's Weekly to review... I am dying of hope and anxiety!

And the daughter is clearly an excellent focus group! Having a title makes the series sound so official.
gotta give the other icon some use too...
