Covers in the World: Throne of Glass

English covers 1:

Not a big fan of cover changes, but they did it well, I gotta say. Although Maas is stunning, this sort of cover is nowhere near original.

English covers 2:

My faves. Gorgeous! And they even stick with the covers, which makes me a happy camper. I think we can agree, however, that "Tower of Dawn" drew the shortest straw when it came to covers. Pretty boring... Alas, still some good design on these covers all in all.

English covers 3:

More clean, but I prefer the others. Too white (as some of you might know, I'm picky when it comes to white covers).


English covers 4:
Special edition! I'm not one for special editions myself; I tend to prefer original covers or likewise. It's pretty, but it looks just like any other YA special edition out there :/

Spanish covers:

Booooring. Not much else to say.


Georgian covers:
Meeeeeh. The first one is ok, but the second one is not to my tastes. Not a fan of the depiction of Celaena. Nice castle, however!

Italian covers 1:

*snore*

(I secretly like them a little bit though, they're pretty)

Italian covers 2:

Meh. The colours are too saturated and I think the flames on the third cover are a bit over the top.

German covers:

Oh, the creativity is overflowing. Or not! I like that they made an original cover for "Tower of Dawn", though.

Dutch covers 1:

What is this, Graceling? Meh.


Dutch covers 2:
Legends say petals continue to take over the Dutch covers... Honestly, I'm not very impressed with this, but at least the designer put some creative energy into making the covers look at least a little bit different.

Turkish covers:

They made a break for original cover designs between the third and fifth book. I'm not a fan of any of these covers. They changed the style quite a lot for each book, which earns a minus point from me.

Romanian covers:

I don't like it. Feels cheap and unloved.

French covers:

Not great, France. I feel like this should be the poster for a video game.

Chinese covers:

"Boring" done well, if you can understand what I mean. While being simple, they manage to be very stylish and modern. I like them quite a bit.

Persian covers 1:

Badass woman in a fairy tale forest and on the moon-ish? I like it. I didn't imagine her dog looking like that, however. Too fluffy.


Persian covers 2:
Oooh, so dark and moody! I'm liking the drama. Keep it going!


Serbian covers:
Stylish and simple. Easy to like, but I don't love them.

Hebrew covers:

I'm getting slight Buffy the Vampire Slayer vibes. They're a bit ugly tho.

Russian covers:

Russian covers manage to make me both happy and frustrated. They leave me with questions and a thirst for answers! Is there only one cover designer in all of Russia who only does one specific style? Does the Russian people like these covers? I want to know...


Swedish covers:
You know by now that I have to include Swedish covers if there are any. These are basically the same as the English ones. I'm impressed they almost managed to translate the entire series before giving up.
