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 Friday Face-Off theme is a cover featuring tunnel: “At the end of every light, is a tunnel of darkness.” For this week’s theme I’ve gone with A Transatlantic Tunnel, Hurrah! by Harry Harrison.

  • Cover A
  • Cover B
  • Cover C
  • Cover D
  • Cover E
  • Cover F
  • Cover G
  • Cover H

And the winner is… COVER B!

This week was a tougher choice again – I love all of the retro sci-fi covers and would be hard pressed to pick amongst those. Cover B snatched it this week though. I think the monochromatic simplicity caught my eye, with all of the steam era sketches all around it.

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 showing something holding something. Nice and cryptic!

A fan of many things including football, books, films, motorsports, travelling, tennis, photography, amongst other things. I also enjoy writing from time to time. Here purely to share my thoughts and opinions, and occasionally my attempts at writing with the world.
