Your favourite covers?

Not sure if there is one of these all ready, but which are your favourite covers?
Mine are the original Darkweaver ones. But that may just be because they aren't in the shops any more! The books are durable though, thickpaper and a non-bendable cover.

It's a close one, but I love the cover art on the Imperial books

really? I didn't like the old covers and was tempted to go and buy the new ones when they came out. Although, I suppose they could be a bit of a collectors item. I like the Imperial covers the best.

Re: Your favourite covers?

I didn't particularly like the newer ones for darkweaver, I felt the old ones had a more fantasy feel to them- whereas the new ones had a computer generated feel.
And I didn't think the first one meant much to the story either.

Just my opinion

They may have a computer generated feel, Matt, but I can assure you they're not. The artist just has an awesome eye for detail. I bought the original paintings last year, so I know that computers had nothing to do with the artwork, though the graphic designer did some very clever work on a computer, blending the images to make the final cover.
