Just got the book last week, and finished it this morning.
Awesome book! I deffinatley look forward to reading more of Brent
Weeks’ books. I’m afraid I have to put my ignorance on display for
a moment, and ask a question that’s been nagging at me. Just who is
it on the cover? For a while, I was thinking Gavin (right up until
he drops into the green prison) so I’m guessing his tie in is with
the knife. Kip’s too young, which I guess leaves Dazen? Big fan,
please enlighten, Greg

Who cares? Its just the cover, as long as the book is good I don’t care what it looks like. If you care so much just buy the hard back and take of the sleeve off.

I will not read it until the cover does not look like a romantic drama anymore. I don’t find it creative or fitting a great work of fiction as all of the ‘Way of Shadow’ series has been. I hope it will soon be adorned by a much better cover so I can continue my collection.

[...] the new HarperCollins versions of Wuthering Heights, which imitate Twilight. UK author Brett Weeks also talks about this in relation to his own books, saying, “… you want people who enjoyed the Night Angel books but [...]

Im really exited. I will read the new book “The black prism”. I expect it.
I´m from German, and i don´t speak english very well. But I will try to read Brent Weeks books on english. I´ve read lots of fantasy-books but the best is “The way of Shadows”

I must say I do not like this cover at all. The man’s face really creeps me out and he is really not hot at all. I love how on the previous books one could not make out the face so clearly, it left something for the imagination.

PS
I am from South Africa and I love your books,
can’t wait for the next ones!!!

I have to admit what drew me to the Night Angel Trilogy was the covers. Probably not something I should admit – but I definitely judge a book by its cover. If the book cover doesn’t appeal/look interesting/look as if effort was put into it – I generally won’t risk a new author unless they’ve been recommended to me.

This cover for Black Prism would not have made me start reading the book if I didn’t know Brent Week’s work now. It isn’t a cover that will draw in new readers and is actually extremely generic. Almost reminds me of some of the covers on paranormal romances – which are not my books of choice.
Although I do not think a cover like this will lose you readers who love your previous work – I do not think it will appeal to the masses the way the NAT did.

Looking forward to Black Prism release though.

Definitely like this cover more than the one that was leaked. I read the Night Angel Trilogy and loved it! My favorite books of all time and I read a lot so that’s saying something. Can’t wait till the Black Prism comes out.
