As a rule we do not shut down threads. What if someone has the same question later? This thread will be a handy guide later on.

quote:The cover is not an illustration of the book. The cover is the billboard used to sell the book. While the artist was assigned a concept that was derived from the book, the primary concern was to have "a male and female in a high-tech setting with the words 'Orson Scott Card' and 'Shadow of the Giant' really big all around them."
I think I would feel really weird if putting my name in big letters on a cover would boost sales of a book. o_O
Yeah. In fact, the fact that it's OSC's name really has nothing to do with the sales. It's all about the shiny
Nice to know the cover wasn't meant to mean anything. If you don't worry about that, it's quite a nice looking cover.
