Re: Book Covers

I like this one.
It is a re-issue of a book written in 1980...


Here's the old one...



I'm still wondering what you all think of recycled book covers for different authors...? Anyone?

Re: Book Covers

Re: Book Covers

^^ I'd imagine though that the cover will look better when the red shading is removed so its just an undertone. Right now I don't really like it

Re: Book Covers

We know.

Re: Book Covers

Um... just a thought but I am not sure if we are allowed to have that cover here. Didn't Lynsay's publishers say she wasn't allow to have it on her website?

Re: Book Covers

Yes. She had to pull it from her Blog.

Re: Book Covers

She actually removed it from everything, her blog, her myspace...anywhere she posted it,
I am guessing....

LYNSAY CORRECT ME IF I AM WRONG!!

but since it popped back up on her myspace that it-has been approved??? or is it still being discussed!?!?



I HAVE TO SAY, I LOVE IT!!!! THE MOON STANDS OUT SO NICE, and we get our sexy little BAT!!!SmileyCentral.comum....and the guys isn't bad either!!!....but he's no VICTOR!!!

Re: Book Covers

Well considering that its on her myspace and her blog, i'd say that its been approved

With the shading over the top on the myspace page, it makes it look a lot nicer. I think it would be a pretty good looking cover when the red is filtered out

Re: Book Covers

Lynsay stated on her blog:
p.s.

My publisher has asked that I don't show the cover illustration until they've done some additional work and got the promotion stuff underway - hence the reason that the picture has now disappeared.

L.

The only place it is, is on her MySpace. That is why we asked her if it had been approved.

Re: Book Covers

I don't think ya have to worry, I was snoopin' on her myspace today and she had it in her covers album. Acal isnt being naughty :) (at the moment anyway).

You are right about the redness kinda funky.

Re: Book Covers

I like the cover. I like the models, the moon, the bat, the lettering, and the red! I currently like the title. Also, the red will probably be more subtle on the actual book...just like the colours were on the three recent books! Also, I like the colour red...and that makes a difference.

I wonder why it is on the MySpace page now...because it was removed. It has not been put back on Lynsay's blog! Hmmm... VAF is my favorite cover, but I didn't originally like the orange-gold colour on it as much, because I'm not a fan of orange! Just my preference However, when I got the book, I was very happy with it and the orange was much more subtle than I had thought. I really like the teal blue on TAV although it isn't my favorite cover. So, I think I like the way Avon's art department is going with the books. I think VI could have used a little more colour, myself...but it was still okay.

Just wish we knew if the moon/bat was the enforcer emblem or if Avon even decided to have one after all, and if the word "rogue" is going to be in each book title...or possibly "hunter." Just something to think about...

Btw, the name "Sam" means both good listener and insightful. I just found that last meaning. Good for a lifemate whose name means still waters...since still waters run deep, I think we will be learning a lot about Garrett Mortimer!

Re: Book Covers

I think it will be "rogue"...it is inside of the moon with the bat...that may turn out to be our emblem, also. I wonder how many titles we can come up with for enforcers that have "rogue" in them I may have to start a new thread!

Re: Book Covers

wren.. check again, it is on her blog. Lynsay just didn't edit it to remove the p.s bit she added that at the end of last month when it was originally posted

Re: Book Covers

I love the moon design and the color even it is a bright red - one might say a blood red?

And course the hunky male in the background aint bad to look at either

Re: Book Covers

Lynsay's blog about The Rogue Hunter was not removed...just the cover art of the book. I do not see the picture on the live.com blog. I have only seen it on the MySpace page.

http://lynsaysands.spaces.live.com/

Usually the same information is released on both, so I don't know why the book cover is not on both. Also, it seems like there would have been a note about it being put back now.

Re: Book Covers

I really like (even if this isn't the final version) the font and the moon type dealio and the part where he's pulling the strap of the shirt down *ooohhh awww*.

Oh I have something I notice about Bite Me If You Can!

I have the hard cover k? In the jacket that tells you like the stuff you would see on the back of a PB they spell Lynsays first name wrong they put Linsay Sands but on the front it is right.
They must have been smoking "Debbies" that day hahahaha
But Spelling an authors name wrong yeesh that's something big to miss!

Has anyone else noticed this??

*~KeL ♥

Re: Book Covers

naw...i ony buy softcovers.....

but you should keep it, sometimes they catch it an change it, so the one you have mightbe worth a bit of money in the future!
misprints tend to raise the value....SOMETIMES!! that is.

Re: Book Covers

I usually only read paperbacks myself but I agree with Gena, you never know

Re: Book Covers

Thats interesting wren, because I got the image from her blog.

Re: Book Covers

It is not there now. Only the cover there is for the Italian translation of The Reluctant Reformer is posted there as of this second.

Re: Book Covers

That is why I kept my hardback copy of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince that is printed upside down and bound backwards. You just never know...so if I could get a book signed by J.K. Rowling, that would be the one I would want her to sign!

Re: Book Covers

Dusty had a book that in the muddle every other page was BLANK. And not just blank pages inserted. It skipped that page totally. She got it replaced.

Was kind of hard reading with half the story missing.

Re: Book Covers

Well, I would have had them replace the book too, if half was missing. I don't pay to have only half the book! Makes it a bit difficult to know what the book is about, and I really get unhappy if a book is missing a section, especially the ending!

However, with my HP book, everything was there, is was just bound the wrong way. All you had to do was turn the book upside down to read it the normal way.
E.G. suggested I keep it because it had the whole book, just bound incorrectly!

Re: Book Covers

I thought you had got it from MySpace, Acal, because I have not seen it on her blog. That is why I was confused when we were posting earlier...I had checked the blog before I posted and the picture was not there

I'm also unsure about the correct release date, as different bookstore chains have it pushed back a little. Maybe my big sis C1 and I can find out more tomorrow!

Re: Book Covers

Weird the link is from myspace but I clicked on her blog and the cover pic was there in the blog wouldn't know why its vanished now

Re: Book Covers

Re: Book Covers

Sorry about the blank post before this. I was messing around I meant to hit cancel and hit post instead. I don't know if this helps but Amazon still has my shipping date as September 30th. But then again that may change. You know how these things are.
