Good spotting, Albertosaurus Rex, and HOORAY for Dutch friends! 
I saw the pics when Robin first posted them and thought
over the three different-coloured covers, but then forgot about them when I hadn't a hope of knowing what was written on each cover. What I should have done was ask you guys 
, or at least taken the time to place my mouse over the one that comes up with the digit '3'...that's somewhat of a giveaway! 
Robin says it is the projected cover only but I'm not sure what else they could really change except the colours of the leaves or the title itself?
What I think is amazing is that the "third" book is already being translated into Dutch and Robin is still making changes in English! Even more amazing is that, up until now, we have been told that this book was never meant to be the "second", let alone "third", of anything, especially as the other two (DK and DH) are really "one". We were even told, as far as I am aware, that although the new story was to follow the events of the Kelsingra expedition post-Dragon Haven, it was still to be a single book in its own right (despite being split into the two parts), and not part of the previously-released 'Chronicles'.
It will be interesting to see what happens, though it does seem that all will be just smooshed together now, under the RWC umbrella. No doubt both books having to be split into two parts has made things a little tricky otherwise...
November 11th may not seem so far-fetched if Robin is just tweaking things now? Two books in one year is almost too much excitement for this Hobb fan...I'd best get to my re-read so I'm up-to-date for the next release!
