I love it when the book covers make a picture when together. The 3 in the FC fontana publications and have seen the FC of the Del Rey ones together but not all 6 from the FC and SC. I would like a good copy of all these editions.
Hope you like it but it has probably been seen and done before.

The Dutch versions are interesting. The translations are:
The Curse of Lord Veil
The War of Extermination
Golden Fire
The Power That Retains |

Thank you Lazy Luke. They are really nice covers and have never seen these before. There is very little TC art out there.
This was really a post to show how each cover on that series links into the next one and when they are all together make a whole picture. I would like to butcher 6 of them and hang them on the wall in a frame together. I think it is very clever.
Here is the other one I mentioned (not done by me)... the background scenery makes 1 picture.

Book cover art is usually such a disappointment to me.
I've read (probably here) that the artist is only given a brief page of info about the story or maybe even just a few sentences before they start.
I try to agree about the whole "never judge a book..." thing but I do.
If I don't like the cover it will keep me from buying a book.
You know....back when there were bookstores. _________________ httpsss://thoolah.blogspot.com/

I am a bit of a pedantic, OCD type and find it absolutely infuriating that there are no fontana book covers, the ones with the circle on the front, for my folders for the last 2 books.
There doesn't seem to be matching covers for all 10 books. Please correct me if I am wrong.
I guess that is just me.

OK, this is now a thread of your favorite Covenant book covers because I enjoyed seeing the Dutch ones Lazy Luke kindly shared.
If the pictures don't match up to form another picture then so be it. I just like to see the artwork.
Thank you in advance.

Yes... me again.
Never seen this cover before...
I think it comes between LFB and TPTP.

I rather enjoy seeing the book covers blended together like darthbuzz did in this thread's original post. A belated "good post" award to him from me for doing that. |

I once had an opportunity to buy all six of these, and have forever been kicking myself for not doing so. _________________ - Woody -
