[[ The cover for the next Drizzt book has been revealed: Book 2 of the Way of the Drow, Glacier’s Edge. The typesetting is still awful, but it looks like they’ve got a new and better artist than the one who did the cover for Starlight Enclave. The art here is really good, the skill level displayed is leagues higher than on Starlight Enclave’s cover art. This cover art makes Starlight Enclave’s cover art look like stick figures in comparison. I’d even say that it stands out as one of the better cover art for these books. It’s no Todd Lockwood, but it’s certainly more engaging than the Drizzt hair commercial-esque covers of the Companions Codex trilogy, more interesting than the empty posing of the Homecoming trilogy, and more coherent than the squiggles of the Generations trilogy (but that isn’t saying much). My feelings towards Drizzt are pretty close to hate, but this art is so good that I didn’t mind zooming in and studying all the details and effort the artist put into his face. I don’t even mind that the art styles are so different that they don’t look like they belong to the same series, this artist just did overall a significantly better job.The summary suggests that Jarlaxle is the focus of the book, but of course he’s not on the cover. I’m guessing that the female drow in the back is Azzudonna, which is a bit of a strange choice, but I’m guessing Yvonnel 2.0 won’t be accompanying the rescue party. ]] -- source link
