You have, yet again, entered Mr Ripley's Book Cover Wars.......
Heat one has just recently come to an end. The runner-way winner was Ransom Rigg's book cover for 'Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children'. This cover received 104 votes out of the 217 votes that were cast. Therefore, as a worthy winner, it now finds itself in the final.
For any new or existing follower of this site this is the chance for you to become part of the weekly book cover wars. Each week (for the next 3 weeks) I am going to select four book covers for you to vote from. The winner of each heat will then go forward to the final round and get a chance to be crowned as 'Mr Ripley's Enchanted Book Cover Winner 2011'.
As a voter not only will you get the chance to choose your favourite book cover, but you will also be in with the chance to win a different special book each week.
The book competition winner from last week was picked at random by Sarwat Chadda to win a copy of his new proof "The Ash Mistry Chronicles". The lucky winner is Pagecrawler - I will be in touch with you for your postal details. Hope you enjoy reading it.
In order to kick off the competition this week we have an amazing US book proof by Jonathan Maberry called Dead of the Night, which is a great read and is due out early November.

Again I was torn between two - I liked 'The BoneHill Curse' but 'The Feral Child' wins for me.
Vick.
I had to go with The Feral Child.
Demons Watch is the clear winner for me!
I went with BoneHill Curse but I also really liked The Feral Child.
My clear choice was Scepter of the Ancients :3
The Bonehill Curse for me. I see something different every time I look at it. So many layers and it makes me REALLY want to read the book!
The Feral Child calls me. That cover looks three dimensional and mystic...
I have to say Sceptre of the Ancients because of Tom Percival's brilliant cover. Love his artwork for every Skulduggery cover.
The Feral Child looks intriguing. Love the silhouetted trees with the character's fingers resembling them.
The Feral Child gets my vote
The Feral Child for me :)
I liked The Bonehill Curse the most-mainly because of the colour!
This book looks mystrious and intriguing! If I could I'd probably read it.
I voted for The Feral Child, but as last week had error message on submission, so...
Also loved Scepter of the Ancients, but fae/elfin image won me over in the end! :0)
Skullduggery pleasant without a doubt.
I voted for the Scepter of the Ancients, by Derek Landy! He is beast! I LOVE YOU MY GOLDEN GOD!
Skulduggery Pleasant. Hands down. No contest.
SKULDUGGERY PLEASANT: Secpter of the Anncients. Of course
SKULDUGGERY PLEASANT!!! All the way! I'll be rooting for this one. Good luck everybody!
I had no idea that this was happening, but I vote for Skulduggery Pleasant.
I Love Skulduggery pleasant >:D
He's an amazing Artist one day i shall draw like that :D
Hope Skulduggery wins! I want that cover to add to my collection! Love that series and waiting on pins and needles for the next one!
