They're cool but what's with the big moon on the guys head? Who is that guy?
Lorlyn- 09-12-2007
ya that is weird. I like the last two but I don't care for the first one.
Lady Nimira- 09-12-2007
I agree. I can't stop looking at that moon :lol:

lol perhaps it is Fergun lol but likey not to be as that bloke is old and weird.
Lady Nimira- 09-12-2007
No idea but i'm guessing the artist has never read the book.
Lady Shadow- 09-12-2007
Eh I hope I'm not supposed to step up for my Flemish/Dutch language thingy, but I don't like the covers. I can't see the two others well, but that is definately not how I see Sonea in my mind and indeed, who are those creepy guys? Should they represent Ichani? Cus I don't think of the Ichani as old-old either. I'd say, just keep with the regular covers of the incognito robed figures. Books are there to let your imagination soar, giving an almost realistic picture is never a good idea...

I think one of them's Lorlen. The one with the red eye but it doesn't make sense. They're not old!

But the American covers don't make any sense either - Isn't strange that the publishers don't even bother to make the cover artists produce actual scenes/charaters from the books. They rarely do.
Lady Nimira- 09-12-2007
Maybe but i think it's more up to the artist. They should read the books otherwise you get the nonsense covers. It really iritates me. If i did the art i'd make sure i'd read the book just so i could do it justice.
Lorlyn- 09-12-2007
or the publishers you tell the artists something about the books. maybe not make them read it but give them enough (perhaps give them a scene or two to read?) to get idea that would relate to the book.
Lady Nimira- 09-12-2007
Yeah that's probably better. I now make this appeal...
Cover artists around the world do us all a favour and make covers that actually relate to the book. Thankyou.

Whaaa? They don't expect us to believe that old guy is Lorlen? My mind is already starting to think that other guy, with the moon on his head is supposed to be Akkarin (black robes). *shivers* Helllllll no! (pardon my language) If that is the case, it is extremely clear they did NOT read the books, not a single chapter!
Lady Nimira- 09-13-2007
Woah LS calm down. Obviously this cover artist was a bit gone in the head at the time of being hired. It's possible he was drooling and laughing evilly as he drew this.
Moon=Akkarin *Screams and runs off sobbing*
The Black Magician- 09-13-2007
Holy
That's the worst immpresion of a charater i've ever seen.
I know why it's a moon,because isn't the sign for black magic a Moon and a hand.i think?
Why are they so old?
:sorcerer:
