I can't tell you how funny I find the cover of the first book. Like at this point Li Yu is super explicitly Not A Koi. He is the most generic, grey, little fish imaginable. Everyone is judging Prince Jing so hard for doting on this dull little soup carp -- to the point that even the cover is like, nah, replace that boring thing with a koi!!! Poor Li Yu can't win for losing...

All of the bonus illustrations for the English publication of DTBPF collected into one post. I was also in charge of the spine icons, so I've included them here for good measure. My thanks to the publisher for having me.

(You can see the individual art posts and photos for each volume by browsing this tag.)

[ID: A DTBPF Drawing. Li Yu and Mu Tianchi sit next to each other at a table overlooking a map. Li Yu excitedly chats about ducks as he points towards an area on the map. Mu Tianchi is looking at Li Yu with a soft loving expression with his hands folded into his lap. End ID]
