Covers Done Right

It's another installment of Covers Done Right and this time I bring to you the cover of the book I'm currently reading, Hammer and Bone by Kirby Crow.  The cover is the work of Robert Quintero and the author, Kirby Crow.   The colours are spectacular, the man on the cover is unique and that hat!  There's also the stylized font - it's just different enough to be evocative of the book's content and takes nothing away from the clarity of the letters.  Sometimes the letters in titles get so curlicued and fancy that you can't read them they're so busy.

To be honest, one of the main reasons I bought this book is because of the cover.

Covers Done Right

I'm really picky about book covers, especially for ebooks.  So many of them are just plain chintzy and awful.  But every once in a while, one comes along that I like so much I'd even have it on my wall in poster form.  This is such a one.  The artist is Kanaxa and I think she's terrific.
