Battle of the Covers #2 – Mistborn: The Final Empire

  Battle of the Covers is a new feature in the blog wherein I judge books by their covers, literally. Here, I will compare two or more covers of the books in their different editions, judge which one I prefer, and leave a poll for people to vote in. In the next post, another cover will be discussed, plus the results of the poll will be announced.

  For this week, the book that I chose was Mistborn: The Final Empire by Brandon Sanderson. It’s a book that I’ve been wanting to read, and I had no idea that it had so many covers!

  Cover #1 looks kind of interesting for me, but I won’t pick it up. Cover #2 just creeps the crap out of me. Cover #3 is really pretty, especially when put side by side with the rest of the trilogy. Cover #4 is just easy to overlook for me. I like cover #5, however I would think that it’s an MG book at first glance. It’s a battle between cover #3 and cover #5, but when I think about how the collection will look on my shelf, cover #3 is the clear winner. I love the clean, minimalist feel of it and it just looks amazing! I wish I can have that cover over here in the Philippines!

Final Verdict: Cover #3
