Oh frabjous day! The cover art for the next Jim Butcher releases is now available for public consumption, along with publication dates.

Side Jobs is a compilation of most (though not all) of the short stories set in the Dresdenverse. The two stories that aren't included are "Curses" from The Naked City anthology (no info available on Butcher's website or Amazon) and "Even Hand" which is in the Dark and Stormy Knights collection, released July 20th. Included in Side Jobs is a brand new novella titled "Aftermath" told from Karrin Murphy's point of view, set about 45 minutes from the end of Changes. Side Jobs is coming out October 26th.

Ghost Story is the next main book in the Dresden Files, and brings a return to the normal title structure of two words of equal length. I won't describe the story for the people who haven't read it, but a blurb has been released. Whether or not it's accurate remains to be seen. Ghost Story will be released March 29th.

The Side Jobs artwork is available as a wallpaper in a variety of sizes. In my opinion, these two covers are among the better artwork of the Dresden Files. I urge everyone to take a look.
