You can imagine what sort of book about therianthropy that Silver Ravenwolf would write. Also note the familiar crescent moon logo on the books. It was exactly the sort of thing that would make the elf in the background imitate Edvard Munch's "The Scream." That and the other wince-worthy book titles and covers, which I carefully tooled to be as many flavors of wrong as possible. Can you imagine up any other equally wince-worthy book titles that we hope we'll never see on a New Age Bestseller rack?
*grin* Rest assured, I am NOT going with Llewellyn. "Field Guide" is already contracted with Immanion Press (http://www.immanion-press.com), who while having started with fiction in 2002, is branching out into nonfic, particularly new territory (ie, we won't be putting out yet another Wicca 101 book). While it's mostly along the occult/magical lines (my first book with them was my book on animal magic (http://www.thegreenwolf.com/lupabooks.html)) the editor and owner thought my idea was good enough to publish. In addition, I (and everyone at Immanion) am a stickler for citations, scholarship, and non-fluff. So I am going to do my best to put out a quality book--and no crescent moons or Dummies ;)

I like the facial expression in this one, by the way.
