Camo guy has a wild look in his eyes. I wouldn’t want him lurking in my neighborhood. I hope that’s not supposed to be the look of a “hero”.

Gives a whole new perspective on the thousand-yard stare, eh?

(Which is actually a symptom of hypervigilance. Gosh, aren’tcha glad you read my comments? That steely-eyed warrior glare? Yup, it’s a symptom of a stress disorder.)

I can’t stop imagining the hero guy running on those short little legs. Kind of like a T-Rex, only legs instead of arms.

Proportions. They matter.

Hi L.B.C
If you guys bothered to check out the books facebook page or massaged the author you’d find out he waited for the publisher to make the cover. After sending more then 36 long detailed emails describing what he wanted on the cover and after 9 months they still didn’t have the cover finished. The book had been ready to publish for over four months and he got tired of waiting so he found a local artist to paint the cover and a local photographer to take some hi-res pictures of the painting. As far as the short legged people on the cover, they are standing in weeds around two or three feet tall. Also his family is having a hard time money wise. He was disabled at work and can’t work anymore and his wife is working three jobs to support their family. That’s why he couldn’t wait any longer for the publisher to do the cover. I hope this helps you understand why he used THAT cover. If you have a better one he might check it out, massage him on facebook.
Have a good day.

I meant message. I guess you never make mistakes! Your right though, however I believe that blindly trash other peoples work without checking into why or at lest reviewing the hole book so you might at lest say the cover such but the book is very good. I did read the book and I didn’t really like the cover but after reading the synopsis I decided to read it. I think it’s very good, even better for a first time author. This guy is just trying to help his family and people like you trash his work without even looking at the most important part of the book…. the story!!! You COULD actually hurt the sales of his book, without ever reading it. That SUCKS. You are entitled to your opinion and will be the last to say you don’t Have a good day!!!

Look, all I’m saying is it could be very bad for a first-time author to get website reviews that kind ‘of trash his or her work. Who knows how badly it could affect or hurt the guy and his family. He look’s like he was a very hard working man before his fall. I believe that every person should take responsibility for there actions and be careful not to inadvertently hurt someone or a family of someone’s just to have some fun picking on an inexperienced author. I bet this site would do well and could be very popular if you guys called out the bad book covers then helped them by matching them up with a good artiest. Authors and artiest would hanging out here all the time or at least come here to fix a bad book cover. Also I wanted you to know the email address I used is 100% real. I rarely use it, but it’s a real email address. Have a great day.

A minimal amount of research would have been enough for the author to realize this isn’t a very effective cover, and even where and how to get a better one. There’s no excuse for this lack of research.
