Hey Everyone!!! I'm super Excited because guess what??? One of my favorite series,
The Experiment in Terror Series, is getting a face lift. Well, only the first book is, but thats still awesome right? The book that started it all, Darkhouse, is getting a new cover and will be re-edited!!! If you dont remember the old cover, here it is:
It's not a bad cover. Somewhat mysterious and ominous. Obviously a scary book. But I must say it looks a little old. I'll admit that if this book was on the shelves as I was walking down the aisle, I'd probably pass right by it, only to miss out on the awesomeness!!! It just doesn't jump out at you and say "READ ME!!" That's probably why most of you have still not read it yet. Karina Halle, the author, wanted something more youthful and dynamic. Check out the new cover!!!!
(Cover Designed by Bret Taylor)
Tell me that isn't nice? I dare you!!! It's a lot younger and more creepy if you ask me, just like the book. If I were to see this cover, I;d definitely stop. I love the clouds and tPerry standing and looking at the lighthouse/darkhouse. Its just 100% better than the last cover, and it fits so well with the book. Oh yea, and did I mention that Kindle downloads for Darkhouse are free today to celebrate? Click

I've had these books downloaded since Halloween. And the only thing the brought my attention to them was the special going on; all 3 free. With the new cover, I definitely would've noticed it quicker. I think it's beautiful, but I'm just going to say it.. the lighthouse looks very.. phallic. lol.
Aww darn. I would so download this one but I know I'll never read it because of my own paranoia. Wish I wasn't so afraid of ghosts!
@ Christy: Haha!!! It is a bit Phallic isnt it? Didnt notice that. I'll never look at this cover the same way again!
@ Lan: I wish you could, but trust me I understand. I must day though, this book wasnt as bad as watching a scary movie. It has plenty of comic releif that helps make you feel less frightened.
Pretty! I'm starting this series soon I've heard really good things about it!
