Cover Reveal: The Combat Codes (The Combat Codes Saga, #1) by Alexander Darwin

Hi everyone! Petrik from Novel Notions here.

We have an incredibly exciting post today. Orbit Books has asked Novel Notions to host the cover re-reveal of a book I’ve read and enjoyed almost two years ago: The Combat Codes by Alexander Darwin. This was originally a self-published novel that became one of the finalists in SPFBO 6th. Orbit has announced its acquisition six months ago, and now, The Combat Codes is receiving a brand-new cover art, design, and publication date. I also had the opportunity to chat a bit with Alexander Darwin himself regarding the new cover and what’s new with the Orbit edition. It is an honor for me and Novel Notions to post the cover art to The Combat Codes. Without further ado, here’s the NEW cover reveal to The Combat Codes by Alexander Darwin!
