Witchfinder creeps me out the most...
Definitely Witchfinder! David Wyatt at his very best !
I like the Wereworld cover! Mesmerising.
Spiral please
Difficult to choose just one of the four as the best cover , but I went for Wereworld .
Spiral looks amazing - David Wyatt designed all the Tunnles series.
Spiral for me - feels like you're getting sucked into the cover!
This one's a toughie!
I actually went with Storm Singing but it was by a whisper - very hard to call this one!
I went for the Storm Singing on this one. I find it enchanting. The others didn't do it for me this time.
Wow. Very difficult, not just because all the covers are great, but because I know three of the authors. Now I know how poor Curtis Jobling felt last week.
I will consider my vote carefully.
And hey, what a fantastic prize! What happens if I win?
Witchfinder gets my vote.
Gosh what a hard one to call - gave it to Spiral in the end!
You've hit the nail on the head with "Poor Curtis" there B - if you vote for Wereworld I'll be able to relocate my family from the hole in the ground (covered in tarpaulin) to a shoebox in't middle't road!

Spiral gets my vote. Definitely.
Shadow of the Hawk is awesome!
Wereworld, love this. captures my interest!!
This was a tough decision as they are all so amazing! Had to go for Spiral because I love all the other covers in the series.
Witchfinder is definitely the most eye catching
Witchfinder is damn creepy! :D
(Also, you know, I kind of what that copy of 13th Horseman... :D)

Spiral grabs my eye most
Spiral for me - but then again I do scare easily
All amazing designs but I went for Wereworld
I like the Witchfinder cover personally
Sorry Mr Jobling, but I just had to give it to Storm Singing!
Somthing about that cover just moved me so profoundly..maybe because it had that wintery feel..I don't know! :0)
Wereworld does it for me!
Spiral definitely
Witchfinder! Gives it that midnight apocalyptic London look!!!
Stormsinging - not the creepiest but certainly the most enchanting.
Wereworld for me :)
I like the Wereworld cover!
It's Wereworld for me! Great use of the green tones! Gives you a great sense of the outdoors and it's mysteries!
