![]() This was published by Gollancz in 2016 with cover art by, ISBN: 9781473216792.Īlso pictured is my “regular” copy of Locke which is from 2013 and published by Del Rey, with cover art by Daniel Dociu (his portfolio is amazing) and design by Dreu Pennington-McNeil, ISBN: 9780553588941. However, if you’re a big fan of the book I still recommend this edition. There’s also no interior art, and I would have loved some chapter embellishments or drop caps. ![]() I can just barely see it in this picture but that’s because I know it’s here. The cover is lovely but there’s a tower behind the banner that is nearly invisible. A little new years gift to myself, why not? This is a lovely edition, though I will say, they could have gone a little further with the design. ![]() I fell in love with The Lies of Locke Lamora at about page ten, so when I found out there was a 10th anniversary edition, I had to have it. ![]() If book covers didn’t matter, publishers wouldn’t put out so many beautiful editions! ![]() I can’t say that I’ve ever decided against a book with terrible cover art if I liked the sound of the plot, but I have purchased special editions of books or multiple editions of books based on their cover art. This is my weekly post where I highlight and appreciate cover designs and the general physical appearance of books. ![]()
