Awesome cover. I love it. Cool, modern, elegant, stylish. They have certainly upped their game with Rankin. That guarantees coverage in the likes of GQ and Arena (Rankin is the latter's house photographer), who would never have touched the Gardners or Bensons.


Indeed; or rather they would have upped their game. Shame Rankin had nothing to do with it! :D

Brilliant Cover Art, a great reference to Maurice Binder's Title Sequences, but the exposed nipple is a big no-no! :D

It's no real big deal in most markets, but it'll be interesting to see if it'll get the airbrush treatment in those more prudish ones.

True - I read that a bit too fast, didn't I? :D Still, I do think the model, the image of the cover, and therefore the book itself, will be featured in several major British lifestyle magazines/broadsheets/Sunday supplements.

Heh! Very true. In fact I can see a few in store standees and whatnot coming out of this. Judging by IFP's recent efforts, this should be a big book event.
