Cover Wars: Gates of Thread and Stone vs. A Thousand Pieces of You


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.

A Thousand Pieces of You managed a clean sweep last week. This weeks it's up against Lori M. Lee's Gates of Threat and Stone. 


Both covers have a touch of modern mixed with the rustic and historical. Gates of Thread and Stone is simple but everything about the cover relates to the story. I love the narrow, empty alleyway and the model's outfit. The colours are all dark shades and work fantastically with the typography. It's a very visually appealing cover.

A Thousand Pieces of You mixed the old and the new in it's architecture, it also displays a brighter more vivacious pallet of colours.

As always, you have a week to vote!

LET THE VOTING COMMENCE!
