[net.sf-lovers] Cover Art -- THE GAME OF EMPIRE

From: Rob Austein <SRA@MIT-XX.ARPA>

The latest of Poul Anderson's Flandry books is out.  This one is less
about Flandry than about his daughter, Diana (illegitimate, of
course).  The book itself was not half bad, although I think I've read
too many of these, since I had it all figured out by page 38....  But
the cover art is really good.  It is by Victoria Poyser, and not only
is it apropriate, it is pretty, and catches one of the best narative
portions of the book quite well.  Obviously she read the book before
doing the cover.  Yay.  I was getting a little tired of being looked
at like I crawled out from under a damp rock every time I bought a
Flandry book just on account of the scantily clad females decorating
the covers....
