Post by: Fireborn on May 02, 2010, 03:35:58 AM: As much as I love Alcatraz, and I do love Alcatraz, I've always felt that the covers are very...weak. And this seems to be the most cringe worthy so far. Sorry, but that's my opinion.

Seconded. I royally despise the covers. It's almost ashaming to have them on my bookshelf... Which is terrible, since the books are awesome.

This one is the worst.

You could always turn them around on your bookshelf. XD

Only the spines show, but that doesn't help, because the terribleness is staring... haunting. Waiting to torment me.
