The Friday Face-Off is a meme originally created by Books by Proxy and now hosted over at Lynn’s Books. The idea is to compare the different covers of a book with each week being a certain theme.
This weeks’ theme is a cover with cover with a starry sky: ‘Moonlight drowns out all but the brightest stars.’
This week I have gone with The Comet Seekers by Helen Sedgwick.
Cover A:
Cover B:
Cover C:
Cover D:
And the winner is… COVER A!
I love the stylised design in this cover. It almost reminds me of the nautical and astronomical maps of old.
What are your thoughts? Do you agree with my winner, or does one of the others work better for you? Let me know in the comments!
Next weeks’ theme is a book cover with a title featuring the word legend: ‘To be a legend, you’ve either got to be dead, or excessively old!’
I’m with you this week; I think Cover A is beautiful and would certainly tempt me to pick up the book.

Cover B is the one for me that would make me want to pick this book up and investigate it further, something slightly eerie about it.

I agree with you, I love the look of Cover A. I’m new to this meme, but I’m already in love! I’ve also not seen a book with so many completely different cover redesigns (unless it’s quite old).
