What is this. I don’t even… It’s a placeholder, right? Should even placeholder covers be this bad? I mean, I know it’s not a Malazan novel (can you imagine?), or even Fantasy, but this is bad by any genre’s standards.
All I can think of is this.

The first thing I thought was: ‘That’s not the pheasant plucker, it’s the pheasant plucker’s son.’ Hope the blurb on the back is clearer.
I kinda liked it until I realized the feathers were feathers, not knives. Buzz kill.
Looks way too much like a self-published novel cover.
