This is insane! Thanks to the artist you will probably sell books to some people just for their covers! Would love to have those covers in big format as paintings on the wall!
Having just finished this book, I think this cover is much cooler than the vanilla US paperback one. However, isn't it wildly inaccurate? I seem to remember three Sails being at work on the Sable Keech - Huff, Puff and Zephyr. This shows a multitude of sails working on it, as well as flying around.
I know, I know, don't be too literal. But this seems about as weird as the US version which had NO Sails...

I like this cover, I can't find my copy of this tail. I may have left it on the tube for another lucky reader. I may have to buy it again.
That's a lovely cover. Fantastical mixed in with the technological.
So much better than the American cover which was not worthy of the book.
What can I say? This one is competing for first place in my mind with The Skinner.
John, you are probably thinking of The Skinner since Tor US have not published this bookl!
I like it!.... the sails are exactly as I imagined them from Neal's description.
Another good cover. The artist has definitely found the grove.
Gosh darn it, am I really going to have to rebuy books because these covers are awesome!
that is awesome - i love it! :D

Beautiful cover. Almost like a pencil sketch, but more elaborate.
Neal,
Been waiting forever for this book to published in the US. Not on Tor website yet, can you give me an idea on publication date?
Love the pictures in your blog. Fond memories of my honeymoon in Greece in 1996.
