Friday Face Off (18)


Did someone say "stock photo"?  Yeah, I thought so.  This is actually a pretty popular one; I've seen it on a number of books, but these two both make use of the back of the neck to add a tattoo, and have a landscape scene at the bottom, so...
Which one does it better?


The Dragon Seer published June 2009
The Keeper's Tattoo published May 2010


Last Week on FFO: The Silver Kiss and Shiver were black, white and re(a)d all over (hee hee); the votes literally went back and forth for some time, but in the end, Klause's vampire book gave Steifvater's werewolf book the Kiss off...
I amuse myself, if no one else.

  1. The Dragon Seer, I just like the colors better!

  2. I prefer The Dragon Seer, the vibrant colors give the cover more life and that glowing sun is so pretty. I like the title placement in The Keeper's Tattoo but the washed out colors aren't very appealing.

  3. The Dragon Seer! The boat is sort of weird, and I don't like really how the hair goes all the way down. The ruins with the sun like that, though - super cool!

  4. The Keepers Tattoo. The picture seems more appropriate in my opinion.

  5. I like the cover of The Dragon Seer! The picture below is way more interesting and the ships on the other cover! :)

  6. The Tattoo for me. Love the hair going all the way and love the old-school boats. :)

  7. The Dragon Seer due to the other one trying to make the title look like a genuine tattoo but failing miserably.

  9. I'm not crazy about either one, but the tattood? tattooed? title on The Keeper's Tattoo is just cheesy. I'll choose Dragon Seer.
