Incidentally, none of those covers are anywhere near as bad as the Sherwood Smith one that ladyofastolat owns (she knows the one I mean...)

Good grief! I notice the scan version is an advanced reading copy - I hope that was just a temporary cover and they put something better on for actual publication.
