Artistic Opinions Wanted
Thanks so much to everyone who shared feedback during round 1 of the cover art search for Death Plays Poker. Your reactions helped select a concept and hone it in the right direction - and now it's time for round 2.
The artists at Cyanotype worked with the pink card image and came up with this:

I love it. I think it conveys the sinister yet fun tone that the book is going for. But I'd love to hear feedback before moving it through to the next stage. My publisher, ECW Press asked me to get as many opinions as possible.
So if you're sitting around with your relatives over the holidays, and you feel like pulling out your laptop instead of having one more family argument, I'd be into hearing how your Aunt Ethel and your 2-year-old nephew and your drunk brother-in-law all react.
Does this cover hit you/them in a good way? Does it make you curious to see what's inside? Would it make you set the book down and keep browsing for something more interesting-looking? And if you have any ideas for tweaking it, I would love to hear them.
Thanks!
