New Cover Concept For Driftless

The brilliant marketing team (Renee) at the Blast Factory suggested a few changes to the cover design. You can see them here. We think the book looks great and will work well on shelves or online.

Driftless is a taut, atmospheric thriller that weaves geological mystery, rural noir, and explosive action into a uniquely compelling narrative set in Wisconsin's Driftless Region—a glacially untouched landscape that becomes both character and catalyst.

“The setting of the unglaciated Driftless region is a standout.”

”Clear and cinematic with great pace and action.”

”The ending is emotionally satisfying!”

”A nice balance of humor and serious.”

”The dog, Buck, is a star!”

Overview


Stick Vega was born and raised in the heart of Wisconsin’s Driftless Region in Viroqua, where the land’s history, folklore, and contradictions continue to shape his work. He is the author of the novel Less Killing and has written numerous award-winning screenplays, including A Shot Away and King’s Murder Still, along with hundreds of short works across film and fiction.

In addition to writing, Vega is a nationally recognized visual artist known for his explosive paintings created using gunpowder and fuse. His work has been collected throughout the United States and reflects the same tension, risk, and controlled chaos that define his storytelling.

He lives in Monona, Wisconsin, with his wife Renee and their Shetland Sheepdog, Archie “Buck” Vig.
