| Hmm, someone oughta tell the cover editor to make the D look more like a D on Bladesinger. I thought it was an N. And wow, I'm amazed by the Vanity's Brood cover. It looks great. |

Bah... Bladesinger has failed to meet expectations. Though the other cover is quite nice.

| I wish I could say I liked either bit of artwork... 'Tis a good thing I don't buy WotC books for the art. |

HAHAHA! Good call, my furry friend. Sometimes I have no idea what they are exactly thinking when they commission art.

| Actually, I rather like the style used for the House of Serpents-trilogy, and Vanity's Brood is no exception. The covers for the The Fighters-series on the other hand...*yawns* |
There is a rumour going around that I have found god. I think is unlikely because I have enough difficulty finding my keys, and there is empirical evidence that they exist.

| The Fighters series' artwork has this fury to it. I like it. |
"That's right, hurl back views that force ye to think by name-calling - 'tis the grand old tradition, let it not down! Anything to keep from having to think, or - Mystra forfend - change thy own views!"
Narnra glowered at her father. "Just how am I to learn how to think? By being taught by you?"
"Some folk in the Realms would give their lives for the chance to learn at my feet," Elminster said mildly. "Several already have."

| I like both covers. Especially those of the fighter`s. |
If I were a ranger, I would pick NDA for my favorite enemy |

I love the Vanity's Brood cover--but then, I love the series, so I'd read the book regardless of the cover.
I'm not as taken with the Bladesinger cover, but it is dynamic and most likely fitting for the story. |
"Instead of asking why we sleep, it might make sense to ask why we wake. Perchance we live to dream. From that perspective, the sea of troubles we navigate in the workaday world might be the price we pay for admission to another night in the world of dreams."
