Finch in the UK
Jeff VanderMeer • June 12th, 2010 @ 10:50 am • News
A close-to-final of the Atlantic/Corvus British Commonwealth edition of Finch, out in August–I captured the screenshot a little off-center. The UK edition will be hardcover followed by oversized mass market, while in the rest of the commonwealth it will be a trade paperback. You can preorder the hardcover here.
This is my first trade hardcover in the UK. City of Saints was tp with a limited hc.

I still go for the vibrancy of the U.S. cover, but I wouldn’t kick the UK cover to the curb.

Very tempted to double dip. I like that a lot.

Is the St. Paul’s-esque building deliberate?
Kind of reminds of the Soviet sci-fi covers you see kicking around. I like it and look forwards to purchasing it!

I’m not sure, Dylan–they went with something that’s more stylized than representative of anything in the book. Although fungal tendrils most definitely have a role to play!

Gorgeous new cover! I didn’t think anyone could rival the US cover…but this one is grrreat.

Quite a lovely cover, though sadly England is going to have to do a lot better than that if it hopes to make up for the humiliation of Green’s goalkeeping…
