Gary Gibson and Tor.uk Ask our Input in Choosing a Cover

One of my favorite sff authors of recent times Gary Gibson, author of the superb standalones "Angel Stations" and "Against Gravity" and the trilogy opener "Stealing Light" has just handed in his third Dakota Merrick installment "Empire of Light" (tbp 2010) to Tor.uk and the publisher is graciously allowing us the fans to choose from one of the two covers below:



You can go to Mr. Gibson website and vote in the poll there or go to the Tor.uk site and follow their instructions.

I started reading Mr. Gibson from his 2004 debut "Angel Stations" which made me a big time fan, with his second and quite different novel "Against Gravity" consolidating my opinion, while the first Dakota Merrick book "Stealing Light" has been my top sf novel of 2007 and the second installment "Nova War" is one of the 4 highly, highly, of the "beg and whine for an arc kind" anticipated sf offerings of Fall 09 with a review to come as soon as possible here, review in which I will discuss "Stealing Light" too.

So even if you have not read "Stealing Light", I still think you should avail of this rare opportunity in having your voice heard in this crucial but rarely touched upon subject of book covers about which I have done a post illustrating with various examples how they influenced my book buying and reading choices.
