Interesting... although I wonder- are the illustrations her fault? beetnemesis Send a noteboard - 04/09/2009 09:15:45 PM
I remember that RJ and Harriet talked about how excited they were to get what's-his-name to do the covers. And most fans generally agree that the cover art is... sub-par, at best.

And then there are all the illustrations in the Big White Book, most of which are grossly inaccurate. I mean, if you're doing a picture of a character, wouldn't you think to write down what color her hair was?


So, I'm thinking that Harriet and the dear departed RJ have absolutely terrible taste in illustrators. Sanderson doesn't even like them- he's sort of hinted that he's not a big fan, but it wouldn't be right for him to criticize them as he once would have as a fan.

Let's hope she gets a better illustrator than the one they used for the BWB, is all I can say.
I amuse myself.
