Pat's Fantasy Hotlist: US cover art for Ian Tregillis' NECESSARY EVIL

WTF???

Are you kidding me??? Even Baen could do better than that. . .

Do Tor Books really want Tregillis to sell any books or what?

Sorry, that was lame.

Lame like this cover!; 11:05 AM

First two covers were cool, and now this? WTF? Is right!; 1:13 PM

This is an unmotivated and disenchanted botch.; 1:47 PM

Damn, this one does not fit in at all with the previous two.
I didn’t like them either, but this just looks awful. An actor from twilight that got misplaced and ended up as playing Jason Bourne lost in Egypt. On the bright side it made me think of the b-movies from the 80’s, I bet that was not what TOR had in mind though.; 2:42 PM
