Jeweleya Comments: This cover is so off-putting to me that I can’t bring myself to read the book. A few highlights –
- The sword dissolving into blue dust
- The barbarian’s barely-decent rags (it’s refreshing that the woman is wearing more than the man, for once)
- The utterly generic, swirly, rainbow-threw-up-on-it background
- And my personal favorite: the horse that looks like it’s just been flung backwards from a giant slingshot
…Indeed, a cover for the ages.
