The Horror Begins
Nov. 22nd, 2005 03:08 pmIn the doctor's office next door to the bathrooms, they've already started playing Christmas Carols. Hearing those treacly earworms echoing through the bathroom is not conducive to intestinal fortitude.
So in honor, of the season, I thought I'd share the pain. Like some book covers from books we all know and love. Such as:
The French edition of Tim Power's "On Stranger Tides"
(You know, the book with pirates, zombies...and no spaceships.)
The German Edition of Bujold's "The Warrior's Apprentice" "The Warrior's Apprentice"
(Good lord, Miles as the love child of General McArthur and Uncle Duke!)
And then there's the Russian covers of Bujold's "Barryar" and "Borders of Infinity"...which are just unfortunate.
Isn't it amusing what art directors will produce? Does anyone else out there have some good intestine twisting book covers?
