New US cover art for Raymond E. Feist's The Serpentwar





Not very impressed, are you?

Well, compared to the original hardcovers, these are priceless works of art! Especially Rage of a Demon King, which was so atrocious I can't still quite believe that they actually put this on the cover of the novel of a bestselling author. . .

If you haven'r read Feist yet, I highly recommend both The Riftwar and The Serpentwar series.

Cover art is spiraling downhill fast these last few years. Check my last two blog posts for this exact issue.

Feist hasn't written anything worth reading in a decade. Been phoning it in for a long time now.

Agree with both Pat and Anonymous...

Riftwar and Serpentwar sagas were excellent, anything since has been ridiculously short, bland and with woeful plot and characterisation.

I've read Riftwar, been meaning to read Serpentwar. I kind of put it off after I read some of his latest stuff.

The first cover is hardly brilliant, but it's not awful either. The rest...
