Don't judge a book by its cover • Non-Gaming • Books • Eurogamer.net

Sometimes you should, because these covers are as good as the books*.

*I haven't read the third one yet as it's not out until later in the year.

Just take a close look at these covers though! They are works of art...

Chuck Wendig - Blackbirds

Chuck Wendig - Mockingbird

Chuck Wendig - The Cormorant

Chuck Wendig is awesome. His 250 Things About Writing book should be required reading.

This is the best book cover, anyway.

@meme This one has Gordon Freeman on the cover though, so...

It seems he's migrated from MS Paint to Photoshop by way of JJ Abrams.

LENS FLARE. LENS FLARE EVERYWHERE.

Hmm. Might give that a read!

You're not really Chris Wendig in some sort of long con are you?

So never judge a book by it's cover
Or who you're going to love by your lover
Love put me wise to her love in disguise
She had the body of a venus
Lord imagine my surprise

Is Chris Wendig Chuck Wendig's brother then?

Yes, he has been poisoning Chuck for years, and stealing his child maintenance.

Also, neilka your joke just made me laugh, very good.

I judged Jesse Bullingtons book "The Sad Tale Of The Brothers Grossbart", first time to my knowledge I have done it. Best decision I've ever made in regards to books as his 3 are some of the best I've read.
