Julie posted a link for the US cover of Watcher on her Twitter page.

Can't wait to get my hands on this. There will be no sleep while it rests unread in my possession!
Death smiled as she withdrew. Kill an army for me, Raif Sevrance. Any less and I just might call you back.

It's really great, especially Raif's expression. A pity I purchase the UK editions.

I do not follow Julie regularly on Twitter. Am I wrong to assume that work on book 5 implies that book 4 is finished and on its twisted way to us?

Read the Wheel of Time series too. These multi-volume series are killing me.... Waited 10+ years for King to finish Gunslinger

Well spotted! Lets hope, and lets hope we don't have to wait quite so long for no. 5 :-)

OMG, the Gunslinger series...thanks fast eddy, I'd totally forgotten about that, I think I only got to #3, now he's finished it I might go back to it. The multi-volumes are killing me to...i'm in the middle of 4 right now, with no hope of seeing the next of any of them until next year (except maybe SOS?)

Love the new book cover, however Raifs expression just looks to me like ...

"Just woke up & who the hell are you???"

Sorry but it just popped into my head couldn't help myself made me giggle.
dammit!...what did I come in here for again?

According to Amazon.co.uk, the publishing date of Watcher of the Dead is April 1, 2010 (the UK version). I hope this is the real date.

I don't follow her regularly, but I was there when she confirmed that Watcher was finished. So yes, to answer your question, it would imply just that.

O.k. What is going on with Effie and Chedd? Do the Cursed Clan just steal gifted children?
Are they cursed because they all use the Old Magic?

Or they know what's coming and thus hide and protect those that are needed.

After reading the First Triology(Bok of Words) which seemed to be set in the South and the last 4 books in Sword of Shadows Series, set in the North-I kind of went crazy trying to put a Map together for these 2 places. Not only am I Geograpicly Challenged but this seemed to drive me crazy cuz of Tarissa in( Book 1-Cavern of Black Ice).) I was trying to figure out how she got to Spire Vanis and the Vain Gate? I guess I just need to make the connection- and guess what could have happened to everyone from the Book of Words after Tarissa gave Birth- We are only talking 16 years? any thoughts?

Miss. Jones posted on her Twitter account that she'd "reviewed the cover copy of Watcher of the Dead".

Anybody know what a cover copy is? Is this the first copy of the book printed with the cover art?
