The Elderling figure in that one is clothed differently (more like in Fitz/Fool's golden Elderling robe but, given the events in CoD, that's to now be expected?), looks more feminine and has no weapon-like item etc.

Just think...this is the closest we've come to having a human on the cover! Smiling

I might place that link to Jackie's site again here and specify that it is what I believe will be the UK cover art. Smiling
I've just had a look now, Farseer and I like that one a lot too..but surely us UK version people wouldn't get four dragons and a person (complete with robe!) as opposed to one dragon and a person..after all, we're getting extra letters! Wink I'd actually be happy with any of those covers, sheesh, I'd be happy with lining paper, if I thought it would get to me sooner! Book

Another post from Jackie's site re the cover for Blood of Dragons. It's the UK cover version but you'll notice that it's different again to the UK one that I posted earlier, as well as the completed US one. As far as I can tell, from Jackie's site and Robin's Facebook post, *this* one depicts the finished UK artwork though. Flowers

It's getting closer...!!!! Yay Yay Yay Yay

not easy to see the details, but intriguing nonetheless...


Note:
when 'thul write in all italics, it is the lord of the three realms within 'thul speaking. A fairly egoistical, but also somewhat simple-minded dragon. Do not take such posts at face value.

Could someone tell me, please, what appears on the Dutch covers as the title for the RWC series: The Rain Wild Chronicles or The Rain Wilds Chronicles? I have long noticed that this (Rain Wild vs Rain Wilds) is a small but consistent difference between the UK and US versions.



^ Actually, I'd be interested to know what all *other* translations have as the series title as well, once released. I have asked this same question over on Blood Memories regarding the Italian translation. Will come back to plonk the answer here when I receive it.
