Tor Mented Comments: First off, stop swinging the sword. The artist didn’t bother to put in a target for you to hit. Second, bad fake Frazetta is worse than no Frazetta at all.

[Note: It’s not my camera. The cover image is just really, really dark and murky and it’s hard to tell what anything is.]
