I don't know why, and this is going to sound odd, but covers like Renegade of Pern make me feel weird. lol.

It is very simple but understated - it's funny I read it once and it bored me to tears, it's a science fiction "classic" but I wasn't impressed. <br /><br />Tolkien did write some other things but it was mostly LoTR, the Silmarillion was like his history of that world. It's not as user friendly in my opinion. His other stuff is mostly scholarly or short stories/ poems, that kinda thing.

I have a list of topics and this wasn't one, it just happened. :) <br /><br />I like Green too, and I figured that was a DdS cover. Just has his look. And those are pomegranates? I didn't know<br /><br />I liked those covers too- exactly about the black and white. A nice contrast, at first I thought it would look better with a city in the background but then i thought, no it looks good the way it is.

I know it's showing my massive lack of science fiction knowledge but somehow I really didn't know Tolkien wrote things other than the Lord of the Rings/Hobbit books. I also really like the cover for Green. It makes me want to know more about the story.Katherine Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12126062556416434416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3952534890282357396.post-37310713917971645562016-08-01T00:16:26.416-07:002016-08-01T00:16:26.416-07:00My first thought was that your topic is so broad I...My first thought was that your topic is so broad I would have an aneurysm trying to choose just ten lol.<br /><br />You know I love that cover for Green since it's a Dan dos Santos, plus it's got pomegranates on it! And I have a pomegranate obsession.<br /><br />I really like those Ari Marmell covers too. I love the black and white contrast and all the blank space works really well. And they're just really pretty in general. Actually I'm gonna go look up them up because they look interesting.Kit @ Metaphors and Moonlighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10113986982046115579noreply@blogger.com
