Ok, it’s still a ways off (release date is, I believe, Oct 05 of this year) but I got a look at the cover art for THE SILENT ARMY yesterday and I could resist sharing it. I liked the cover of STATE OF DECAY lot, but I like this one even more – STATE OF DECAY’s cover captured Nico well, as well as the mood, but this one really nails the setting, too. Take a gander:
I could go on and on about the great work Penguin’s artists do but I think the picture speaks for itself. Like you I’ve seen a ton of book covers and I’m sure we can agree that they’re all over the map…the cover is important; many factors come into play I’m sure whenever anything is being sold, but a book cover can either turn you off or draw you in and I this one really drew me in. I’m very pleased.

aggggh. Marking off days on the calendar like a convict. LOL. CAN NOT WAIT! Loving the artwork. True, yet to read book, but already getting a sense of mood/vibe. Hope this stays the one. Would be hard to out do.
