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 week’s theme is a book cover featuring feathers: “The haft of the arrow had been feathered with one of the eagles own plumes.” For this theme I picked The Feather Thief by Kirk Wallace Johnson.

Cover A:

Cover B:

Cover C:

Cover D:

Cover E:

And the winner is… COVER B!

This was a closer one for me. A came close, the colours are wonderful. Cover B took the spoils for me however, that amazing blue colour, the lone feather on the stark black background, simple but effective.

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 week’s theme is a cover that is a movie tie in.
