They certainly are striking and draw your attention, a bit like the old Gollancz yellow jacket series.
However, the only one of the new cover styles I have read ("Inverted World"), I was disappointed by the fact that the plastic sheet on the cover has peeled away from the edges quite badly. If the next one I buy is like that, I shall be very disappointed.
