Hosted by The Broke and the Bookish
In honor of Halloween, this Top Ten post was supposed to be devoted to my favorite scary book covers. As I don’t particularly like books with creepy covers I thought I would (yet again) take it in a different direction:
Top Ten Book Covers by Luis Royo
Not only is Royo my favorite artists, but his works often have a bit of a darker edge – perfect for Halloween (The covers I’ve chosen lack of a little bit of that darkness, but they’re in the minority of his works. Just do a google search and you’ll see what I mean…caution: they can get pretty racy).
- Survival by Julie E. Czerneda
- Crusader by Sara Douglass
- Prince of Shadows by Kurt Benjamin
- When Demons Walk by Patricia Briggs
- The Assassin King by Elizabeth Haydon
I been wanting to feature these covers for a while, so I’m glad I finally found an excuse. I will admit that some of these I picked up based on the cover art alone, which sounds weird, but he hasn’t let me down yet – some of these books are among my favorites.
There you have it! What books made your list this week?
