Finally artists and publishers with sense

They are not Swedish covers but Danish covers (Being a Dane I have to point that out ;-)) And yes apparently they feel that there is enough material for 2 books to be made from book 1. I fear that they have perceived the trilogy as a children's fantasy and translated it for younger readers. Sucks, wish they would have asked me to translate them :-) Also the titel bugs me as I love the original titles. On these versions book 1 is called The Black Magicians and book 2 is called Fergun's Revenge. But the covers are at least alright.

How could they perceive it as a childrens fantasy? They'll soon find out they're wrong. Yeah Kas you should have translated them. Get on to them and translate The Novice and The High Lord. :wOOt:

That reminds me of what they did with Robert Jordan's second Wheel of Time book. I didn't know at the time, though.

Sorry you've lost me LR. I haven't read that book.

Well, at least the covers are good.

I've just noticed something after a look at THL cover (annonymouse robe wearer set) the robes aren't actually black they're a dark purple. The artist has actually depicted the three disciplines of the guild.

it looks a bit reddish if you ask me. like inbetween purple an red. the edges are red for sure. at least the one with the magician and cery. the other one is a bit hard to tell. their more blackish and not really tinted in red, green or purple but the three magician's themselves could reperest the three displines. (3 magician's for 3 displines)

I can't tell with TMG it's very dark. It could be any colour really.

I believe they're the darker colour's of the title colour.

Well, maybe. But, it is dark. I think on tN is green and on tHL is very dark purple....

Yeah they split the first book into two and Cery got abducted in the second part of the first book. I think the first one is the incident with the rock.

I bought mine in Europe(ireland) the white cover ones wihth sonea on the cover in robes. I didnt even know there were different ones for a long time. I like the ones I bought the best though.
