This is the same image as the one I use at the beginning of this post (I usually use final publisher images, but even publisher Harper Collins and author Cynthia Hand don't have a full-color rendering of this lovely cover). You've got some glare spots and some darkness where there shouldn't be, but you can really get a taste of how gorgeous the cover is. So I tried a third time, this time using a camera. Very silvery and pretty, but still missing the way the book looks when you physically see it. I tried scanning a picture of the actual book jacket for you guys (yes, I liked the book so much that I went out and bought a physical copy yesterday), and got the middle image. The first image is what you'll find if you go to order the book online from sites such as Amazon and B&N. The book was as surprising as physically seeing the cover. I picked the book up the other night after work and didn't finish until almost two in the morning. When I finally started reading this book, I was in for the shock of my life because I LOVED it. Second, the cover wasn't anything inspirational-even online "finalized" copies. First, the book was about angels, which isn't my genre du jour. I'll be honest: It took me a while to pick up my ARC. Cynthia Hand's debut novel, Unearthly, is full of unexpected surprises and delights.
