    That’s the least rampant lioness I’ve ever seen.

  2. Tom Noir Says:

    “It’s like Harry Potter, only more androgynous.”

  3. Dead Stuff With Big Teeth Says:

    CRIMSON RAMPANT

  4. Smith Says:

    That is some major sunburn.

  5. Smith Says:

    And I have to say, the image on the previous Best of All Possible Wars would surely better suit a title like Lioness Rampant.

  6. Dead Stuff With Big Teeth Says:

    @Smith: true. So, the best of all wars is one that takes place in front of the kiddies, in a cave underneath a castle? I’ve heard worse ideas…

  7. L.B. Says:

    I thought “What’s Macaulay Culkin doing on the cover of that book?”

  8. A.R.Yngve Says:

    THE COWARDLY LIONESS RAMPANT

  9. THX 1138 Says:

    Admit it, this is the Bizarro World edition, right?

  10. fred Says:

    If covers were songs this would be a Celine Dion Barry Manilow duet of “You Light Up My Life”.

  11. Phil Says:

    As long as artists keep on doing it, I’ll keep on saying it:

    Behind you!!!

  12. Trish Says:

    Saddest thing is, I think that’s supposed to be a short-haired woman…

  13. A.R.Yngve Says:

    PHOTOSHOP RAMPANT

  14. hep c Says:

    I think Phil has a point. Maybe there should be a Behind you! tag.

    This was actually one of my favourite books ever as a child. The woman in the foreground and the wizard are twins who switched places as children so she could become a knight, while he went away in her place to a lady’s finishing school that also trained boys as magicians.

    its supposed to be a woman. I love this series but this is the worst cover of it I’ve seen by far.

  17. Stevie T Says:

    Lets take an exciting book about a (very active) Lady Knight (who didn’t wear her hair short) and make it look extremely boring. Oh, and lets make her wizard brother look like a total idiot with a stupid hat that wizards in their world DON’T WEAR.
