That’s how many I see. For a second I thought it was six, but “THE BOOK” appears to be the same font as “LEFT BEHIND” with massive spacing between the letters.

That’s a whole lot of Thes in the title. Maybe we need a site for lousy titles too.

After seeing this I thought of a jacked up Nicolae Carpathia in a Luchador mask, fighting beefy baseball playing Jesus’ – while in the background Samual Jackson complains about motherf*cki’ snakes in his motherf*ckin’ rapture.

As anyone should really.

Why can’t it ever be “Like LEFT BEHIND on Quaaludes?”

Good cover image fitting for the plot of the story, only children or the illiterate who don’t read judge a book solely on it’s cover…

And customers. Who decide whether it’s worth paying for and finding out.

I agree! That picture is kinda purty, but all them other yellow and orange thangs stuck all over it just cover up all the good parts. I bet they did that to all the pictures inside, too.

Judging this cover as a cover, it has a good, dramatic cover image obscured by a clutter of mix-master-mis-matched fonts.

And the tag line: “Like LEFT BEHIND on steroids!” I think that could offend fans of the Left Behind series and turn off those who didn’t like the series. (Actually the cover reminds me of Airplane! on Viagra.)

There, there, it’s just one line of Papyrus. (But why, WHY?)

Look at all these fonts we found!

There are elements of this that are not so bad, utterly ruined by a fontfest.

I’m sorry, the crappy cover aside… THAT TITLE ALONE.
