So little of them give me an eye catchy feeling. For me a good cover art is very important, for the new authors they catch my eyes when I'm on a library, for the authors I know they add to the pleasure of my reading :)<br /><br />Julie, you are quite right, the cover dares us to read it :) And Caniglia is an amazing artist.Mihai A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/08534691063946241019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3991760003960066476.post-53983757297205183052009-05-08T04:52:00.000+03:002009-05-08T04:52:00.000+03:00The cover is amazing.

As you may already know from malazanempire, I'm very interested in these things and am always excited to discover an artist I haven't known yet, and great cover art is kind of worth dying for, as far as I'm concerned [we have so little good cover art - if any - here in Germany :(]. I'd never have though about reading this book based on the blurb, it's the cover that makes me want to read it, haha.<br /><br />PuckAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3991760003960066476.post-37964496063118174382009-05-07T13:05:00.000+03:002009-05-07T13:05:00.000+03:00Jen, I know that you don't like hardcovers, but th...Jen, I know that you don't like hardcovers, but this cover is for a hardback as well :) I haven't read any of Margo Lanagan's works, but I heard a lot of them. Some controversies too.<br /><br />Memory, it is a little darker, but a very good one :)<br /><br />Voter Mom, I didn't like that cover either. And I believe that this one gives a better idea about the book. I read your thoughts on the book too and I have to admit that they stirred my interest further on :)Mihai A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/08534691063946241019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3991760003960066476.post-23187418321377299612009-05-06T18:34:00.000+03:002009-05-06T18:34:00.000+03:00I think this cover is MUCH more appropriate than t...I think this cover is MUCH more appropriate than the one I saw of it -- a fairytale like watercolor of a girl hugging a bear. If I had seen the book with this cover I would have a much better idea of what was between the pages. <br /><br />I really dislike the cover & blurb that Knopf used -- I think it is false marketing.(This one:<br />http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1235445952m/2662169.jpg)Bookhordehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03927180700824288205noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3991760003960066476.post-75160957978682763542009-05-06T17:49:00.000+03:002009-05-06T17:49:00.000+03:00This new cover certainly has a different feel from...This new cover certainly has a different feel from any of the previous editions. Truth be told, I find it a little scary, but based on what I've read I think it does a good job of capturing the book's feel.Memoryhttp://xicanti.livejournal.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3991760003960066476.post-17893890199225262172009-05-06T17:03:00.000+03:002009-05-06T17:03:00.000+03:00I'd had my eyes set on the book since I read a sho...I'd had my eyes set on the book since I read a short story that caused a little blogosphere stir - ZOMG a story with children and sex! - and which turned out to be great. But I know what's kept me from buying this yet: my hatred for hardcovers. It should be out in paperback by the time I make my new order though.. yay.Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08593248317954113334noreply@blogger.com
