How can other science-fiction writers compete?

Rare occasion when a picture of the movie adaptation actually looked good as the cover.

This my favorite cover of this book (sorry that it's for ants)

...

...

I love this cover as well, but I don't feel like it best represents Viron. I got the feeling Viron was a pretty backwards place that lacked high culture and aesthetics - very nitty-gritty, base, and violent.

I love all the detail in the picture.

...

This is an excellent cover. Thanks, user.

Excuse me?

nothing personnel plebs

The palace sounded pretty nice, or at least looked nice in my head. The cover probably painted how I saw it. Also I just noticed that Mucor is on the cover for the first time.

...

I know the palace and Ermine's were supposed to be for the upper classes, but judging from the description of Viron and its inhabitants, I get the feeling it should be over-the-top in the sense of an American McMansion. Anyways, it's beautiful art, and yes Mucor is there. : )

I'm just now the first hundred pages into On Blue's Waters. Love these books!

I've also recently started Book of the Short Sun and am about 1/3 of the way through 'In Green's Jungles'. This is easily some of Wolfe's best works. Blue was nice but the whole way through it I felt like Wolfe was building up to the real story. Green isn't what I was expecting it to be but I'm enjoying the hell out of it. Lots of stories within stories again, which I love. Also Short Sun is very reminiscent of The Fifth Head of Cerberus, which is my favourite Wolfe story. So of course I'm having a great time.

Yes, his stories are so jam packed with details, and as you say, stories within stories, that a trudging period at the beginning seems impossible to avoid before things begin to fall into place. I'm glad to hear I have some great reading that awaits me!

Very good

Vintage covers are hit or miss. Some are pretty nice.

Most covers for this book are pretty great. Can't say the same for most NYRB classics

Recently, I like the Penguin covers for Nancy's books

Nope. That's a photo made in jest, user. Please do not believe it to be true.

I've seen a few crime books like this in WH Smiths and it makes me want to read more crime fiction. Very beautiful covers.
