Cover Wars: Nearly Gone vs. Dreams of Gods & Monsters

by Unknown 7:27 am 10 comments

Cover Wars is a weekly showdown of two beautiful covers. The winner, as voted by you, goes on to face a new cover, and wins bragging rights. This is basically a fun way to discuss what we like in covers.

Dreams of Gods & Monsters managed the won against Dissonance! It was a surprisingly strong win, but will Dreams of Gods & Monsters by Laini Taylor manage such a win against Nearly Gone by Elle Cosimano?

Both covers are extremely dark. Nearly Gone brings the chilling, creepy factor while Dreams of Gods & Monsters is a little more stylish an urban. Both fonts are also extremely distinctive. I love the '4' turned 'a' in Nearly Gone, as well as the contrast between solid text and gothic cursive in Dreams of Gods & Monsters.

Both covers are worthy, but there is only one winner. Which will it be?

Let the Cover Wars begin!

I chose Nearly Gone. I remember seeing this cover and just thinking "I have to have this" -- which didn't happen with Dreams of Gods & Monsters for me.

Nearly Gone, because I'm not sure about Dreams of Gods & Monsters fits with the first two. Also, what's with the antlers?

I like both. Very alluring. But Dreams of Gods has nice color scheme.

Who what is Nearly Gone and why haven't I heard of it before? I lurve the vibe it's giving out. Though I think I prefer Dreams of Gods & Monsters. I mean look at it! SO PRETTEH! It will be a hard one to beat I think!

Not surprised Dreams won-I'm voting for it again because of its stunning yellow color.
