Cover Coveting (10)

 
Cover art is found from Goodreads, Wicked Scribes, ATUF, social networks, and other sources.
***All cover art may not be final.***

I’ve mentioned it a few times that I had a hard time installing the Anniversary Edition for Windows 10. Well I finally got it installed (had to rush it all of a sudden because deferring it no longer worked). Long story short no matter how much you learn your teacher always knows best.

In my case my mom! Thanks mom.

I few people asked me to post about it if I actually got it to work. So I switched and updated a video card, all USBs unhooked except for keyboard and mouse, uninstalled my wireless Epson (which had SDcard readers and drive issues), and boom! Finally it got pass the 40% freeze of the install.

Dear Microsoft, please never do this again. Small patches that don't kill my computer for months at a time. How about you let us decide when to do updates, internet caps are real.

Shera’s thoughts:

Oooooooo, so cool. It's like this dark and gritty space suit!

The design of the suit is so cool. I love how it feels like a forest, but all abstract.

Shera’s thoughts:

So it's not the best, but I really like that it matches the series fairly well.

Considering it's just a anthology I like it when a collection of them gets a fairly decent cover.

I adore the artwork of this cover! The mixing of flame and ghost fists the synopsis well.

I love the window and architecture of the cover. The girl on the cover still doesn't totally work for me.

Shera’s thoughts:

Ah!!! So stunning. Just the right amount of magic, stunning scenery, and bad ass hair styles!

I really like that the dress feels right. I don't like modern dresses on my High Fantasy covers.

Goodreads | Amazon


Cold Summer Series: N/A 

Add it: Goodreads | Amazon

Shera’s thoughts:

LOVE it. However, this is a total cover rip off.

It's a softer look of the Firebird series.

(AKA Undead Dating Service)

Add it: Goodreads | Amazon

Shera’s thoughts:

Oh wow! This totally captures the cheesey awfulness of THE BACHELOR, but with mild vampire flare.

Love the typography.

Disruptor  (Seeker #3) Series: The Seekers, book 3

Add it: Goodreads | Amazon

Shera’s thoughts:

Yes! I was right. Book three has three swords on it! You can see it better on the Goodreads series link. The swords match the book number.

So cool.

I really like these covers and the design. Totally unique.

Draekora  (The Medoran Chronicles #3) Series: N/A

Shera’s thoughts:

Oooooo, this really captures the magic. True, some of the visuals are cheesy.

It's still very lovely to look at.
