That cover to Castle In The Sky is actually a pretty awesome upgrade, although the author needs to put his title and byline somewhere they can actually be seen and won’t be cut off if the cover’s margins get trimmed (as happened here). The things professional manga-style art can do for a book cover are pretty impressive. Of course, the contents are as dismal a mess of info-dumping as ever.
It’s a pity there’s no Lousy Books With Awesome Covers counterpart to this site, because I’ve seen some real doozies in my time while browsing through Amazon and Smashwords. Case in point: here‘s an awesome cover for a book with a title that’ll leave you wondering “What kind of rotten parents would give their little girl a name like that!?”
Fun fact: I just noticed both of the covers for Being Jewish In 2025 New York City are on here; for the times, they are a-changin’ back!
