There's no Lake Azur beyond it either, and those plateaus and mountains to the left should be to the right if they're supposed to be the Gadrobi Hills. I think in most fantasy books the cover artwork has little to nothing to do with the actual content of the book unfortunately.
I spent my entire read trying to figure out who those two are. Paran and Lorn? Whiskeyjack and Sorry? By the end I just decided someone drew random fantasy characters and plastered them on the cover.
Anyway, I have Deadhouse Gates and should be starting it soon.
Yeah, a lot of covers are just random fantasy stuff. It's a shame, especially seeing how there's so much awesome imaginative writing out there.
Deadhouse Gates is cool. I'm about three fourths done at the moment. The scale is pretty insane though. I've been going back to check the maps a lot more than I did with Gardens of the Moon.
