Sci-fi & fantasy does really nice cover art I reckon. Much nicer than litry fiction.
But sometimes they change the style part way through a series, which drives me utterly bonkers
Me too. I believe the industry calls it the Georgette Heyer effect. So you have to go out and buy ALL of the books again so the set matches. Utter bullshit and rampant greedmongering imo. I refuse to participate - the words inside don't change with the cover fortunately.
I bet your book's cover art will be incredible, and I will Georgette Heyer the shit out of it
Like this! It's even the same artist, so there is no bloody excuse!
