So, The Way of Kings is out today, and for those of us not privileged with ARCs, this was the first time we could actually see how the book looks. And it looks fantastic! Michael Whelan's beautiful artwork shines even more "in the flesh", the way it continues onto the spine is amazing, and the maps inside the covers are also wonderful. I don't think I've seen a better looking non-limited edition hardcover in a very long while. So I decided to post some pictures, just in case you are - like me - shallow and cool enough to be susceptible to the influence of gorgeous covers when you are deciding what to buy.
I apologize about the flash. Unavoidable, unfortunately.
Thanks for posting these. I purchased a digital version, and I've been anxious to see the maps in color. Although ... I don't think any of those particular images are in the ebook. Boo!
ReplyDeleteI'm only halfway through the book so far, and I have no idea what three of those images even are.
