Another cover feature. This time I'm going to post a lot of covers, then see if I can see any trends in the designs....shouldn't be that difficult, should it?

Where's the difference...Glass Houses with the blue predominating it makes a change...(although there are editions falling back on the black background pale person formula).
Ah, how I missed your skulls and spots of tea, ah hem. Wisdom on books. ;)

Cool way to do a cover post. The blood theme is extremely big, yep. I have the new cover for Interview with The Vampire-- my favorite vamp book by far!-- and it features dripping red candles. So, more blood. Yay. :)
ReplyDelete@Mad Scientist I wondered where you'd gone...
ReplyDelete@Kat Blood is an obvious theme to go with...sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.... Your cover sounds awesome. Mine has Louis holding three candles in a chandelier, and black everywhere else. Boring. But it's the writing that counts . Of couse.
