With a tip of the hat to Rias Nuninga at the Philip José Farmer International Bibliography site, I'm pleased to reveal the cover for the new German edition of Farmer's Wold Newton novel The Adventure of the Peerless Peer.
The new edition, Sherlock Holmes und die Legende von Greystoke (Sherlock Holmes and the Legend of Greystoke), is forthcoming in Spring 2013 from Atlantis Verlag (German version). English translation: Atlantis Verlag.
I'm very happy to report that the afterword I penned for the Titan Books reissue (The Peerless Peer, June 2011) has also been translated and will be included in the German edition. The foreword is by Christian Endres and the new cover is by Mark Freier.
The book will be available in hardcover, softcover, and eBook.

Honey West and T.H.E Cat, in A GIRL AND HER CAT!
It’s
Honey West and T.H.E Cat, in the first new Honey West novel in over 40
years, A Girl and Her Cat!
Following on the heels of the first ever Honey West & T.H.E Cat crossover comic, Moonstone's "Death in the Desert," comes the Honey West & T.H.E Cat novel, A Girl and Her Cat.....
When an exotic green-eyed
Asian doctor hires Honey to recover a stolen sample of a new Rubella vaccine
from a rival scientist, the blonde bombshell private eye—suspicious but
bored—takes the case. But after she’s attacked not once, but twice, on her way from
Long Beach to San Francisco to track down her quarry, she knows there’s
more—much more—to her femme fatale client than meets the eye.
Along the way, Honey’s
one-time paramour Johnny Doom—ex-bounty hunter and current Company
agent—reenters the picture, and the gorgeous doctor’s insidious—and
deadly—grandfather deals himself in. But when Honey questions whether Johnny’s
playing her game, or just playing her for a patsy, she joins forces—as only
Honey can—with the one man in Frisco who can help her recover the stolen
vaccine-cum-bioweapon and prevent worldwide genocide by germ-warfare—former cat
burglar-turned-bodyguard Thomas Hewitt Edward Cat: T.H.E Cat!
Join writers Win Scott
Eckert and Matthew Baugh, and cover artist Douglas Klauba, for A Girl and
Her Cat, a groovy, racy 1960s romp coming in 2013 from Moonstone!
