Love this photo. It is reminiscent of the WoT card game photo, at least in my opinion. However the costume could be more true to Cairhienin style. Everything about it is beautiful, though. My problem with the original coverart is most of it was not true to the way things were described in the books so things like the “gypsy belt” in new cover art should be rectified if this were going into a print version. Her ring does not look very snake like either, course that may be due to lack of detail in a small version of the photo. As fan art I do love it though. The jewel on her head is beautiful. The singes of fire are perfect. The channeling is great.

I didn’t know Moiraine was a strumpet! She looks like she’s about to dance, not fight. As forward as those Saldean farmgirls Faile keeps rambling about. Yikes!
I can only imagine what Lanfear looks like in this guy’s head. Eva Green, maybe?

Why couldn’t art work of this quality have been used on the original books? This and the one posted for the next book have some life to them.
If anyone is listening, how about some high detail maps.

I like the new covers. Question. Via Amazon is only a Kindle Ebookreader version. Can I read this on a Sony Ebookreader?
With Love and Laughter,

Virginia has the right of it. A good but not great cover ruined by that stupid gypsy belt.

I love this cover and the cover Dan Dos Santos did for Brandon Sanderson’s Warbreaker. I wish Tor would have chose him for all the WOT books.
