This feature I will just gab, remark, feature book covers.
For this cover up I will be comparing two different editions of the same book, from books I've read recently. I will try to do this every couple weeks or so. Can be from a different country, or just a different edition in general

American Cover Spanish Cover
There was a TON of editions for this book it was so hard to pick one. I like the Spanish one a lot but I definitely like the American cover the best.

I messed up with this one. I couldn't pick which one I liked for the alternate covers so I picked both... Oops. I love both the alternate American and the Italian one.

American Cover German Cover
Oh wow that German cover is absolutely stunning. I can't really pick which I like best. Because for some reason the American one I really like. But that German cover though.

What is going on with the cover on the right?? It's a different name and everything. It's really pretty but I LOVE the original cover. That butterfly is gorgeous.
Plague Land by Alex Scarrow

For the covers I'd go with the Spanish cover for Black Ice as I love proper snow scenes, the American cover for Ashes as I'm not a fan of vague faces on covers, the alternate crow cover as I love crows of all kinds and I agree with you on Plague Land. That is the kind of apocalypse cover I go for!
ReplyDeleteGreat post! On Genuine Fraud I think I'd have to go with the alternate American cover as my fave.
