Cover Crazy: Nekro

Love, or hate it, but his covers always catch your eye.
Yep, I'm talking about Nekro, the Spanish artist who has captured the reading YA crowd's eyes with his searingly brilliant (and mostly bright red) book covers!
So from what I see, I can analyze that this man likes his details. The swirls and trills are perfect, as is what seems to be his favorite palette of colors- white, red, black- the black always metallic and simply gorgeous!
He works for most of the major publishing houses, and his credentials include the Norma Editorial book 13 Inches.
His book covers that you will recognize include:

THE WEREWORLD SERIES


The Anna Dressed in Blood series



The Blood Rights series

 



Article 5
                     
13 Inches (his book)
                                                                 
And there you have it! Book cover candy for a week :)

Ciao, guys.

    Wow! I have seen his covers but didn't realize they were all done by the same person. I love the covers of the Anna series. Thanks so much for sharing. I will have to stop by his blog and check out more of his work!

Do we really need a preface? Anyway, Feature and Follow is by Paranjunkee and Alison Can Read and is all about blog love. Q: Best Cover? What is the best cover of a book that you’ve read and didn’t like? A: Oh, easy peasy. Masque of Red Death by Bethany Griffin. I loved the cover, but I didn't like the book. I couldn't connect with any of the characters, and finally just abandoned it somewhere near the end. I don't even want to know how it ended, or if there is a new book in the series. It wasn't sucky writing or a sucky plot, it just completely failed to make any kind of impact on me. What are your picks? Leave your links, let's share some follower love :)

Ah, been a while since I did one of these. Anyway, as you all know, Feature and Follow Friday is hosted by Parajunkee and Alison Can Read , and is all about spreading some blogosphere love. The question for this week is: Q. Have You Ever Bought a Book Because of a Bad Review? A: Yes, I bought the Mortal Instruments by Cassandra Clare after one of my good friends read the book and trashed it so much that I just HAD to read it. Of course, her being a Harry Potter fan and fan-fiction writer was the main problem here: she had heard about the whole plagiarism fiasco and we had both read Cassandra's HP fanfic- the Draco Trilogy- and she thought the Mortal Instruments was basically a recycling of DT. Anyway, I read the book and sort of liked it: it was mindless fun if you ignored all the glamour-people and HP comparisons and glitter fizz. I liked Magnus Bane, at least. Leave your FF links :) Happy Follow Friday!

    So it's my very first Follow Friday blog-hop. Yaayy.  Follow Friday is hosted by Parajunkee and Alison Can Read , and this week's question is.....          Q: Which book genre do you avoid at all costs and why?   A. This one's easy.  Historical romance.  Give me anything with princes, princesses, marquises, swooning heroines, men in breeches, stories about evil twins and lost princes and inheritances and dowries...and I'll faint. But not before I barf.      Anything where women don't wear jeans or, in fact, anything above the knee, cannot stand up for themselves against abusive males (or do stand up and is branded a rebel, a wild-cat to be TAMED. UGH) and one look from a male melts off her kneecaps is a no-no for me. Put in castles and old English and nasty, unfleeable arranged marriages and I am dead. Bear in mind that I'm talking about those pink-and-yellow jacketed...
