So not that far off, only a few Henrys out!<br />The US cover seems much more modern, more like a 1930s mystery. I don't see the connection between that cover and a book set in the time of Henry II. It isn't a bad cover, just does not seem appropriate for the particular book.<br /><br />I can't say I'd pick up either, but then I tend not to home in on historical crime.Maxine Clarkehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06628509319992204770noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32065323.post-54085549804060850952010-09-08T20:05:52.953+01:002010-09-08T20:05:52.953+01:00I like the UK one, the font, colour and texture go...I like the UK one, the font, colour and texture go with the period, I think it's a classy look.LauraRnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32065323.post-5335472009585565502010-09-08T14:35:50.311+01:002010-09-08T14:35:50.311+01:00I love the UK version, the language, the design an...I love the UK version, the language, the design and specifically, those fonts.<br /><br />I noticed it before and I would thumb through it in a bookstore.kathy d.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32065323.post-80007321281525614512010-09-08T13:33:39.572+01:002010-09-08T13:33:39.572+01:00Karen - I really enjoy these cover option posts!
