I suppose I must learn to... Never judge a cover by its canonicity

*makes bird-like screeching noises*

Uhh, if you look closely, Jasnah is floating. Neither of her feet is on a step...

Nah. Dalinar was on the cover of Kaladin's book, and Kaladin was on the cover of Shallan's book. I'd say it makes plenty of sense.

I understand Brandon taking time to write novellas helps his sanity, but what about mine? I haven't read a full length Brandon Sanderson novel since yesterday (Reread Mistborn). This is why I try to stay off the shard in between books. It's so PAINFUL.

Huh - never actually paid much attention before, but I don't think that's right. Why would Dalinar be holding a Crab sigil pennant and wearing a crab cape? I mean he is kind of crabby, but... Edit: Is it that that sword matches Oathbringer's description? And then the background figure is holding a spear, not a shardblade.

Well, the next book is almost definitely going to be Szeth's (maybe Eshonai), so I don't think the cover art really implies anything. As for the subject of TWoK's cover, Eshonai is there, but that's Dalinar in the foreground. The little figure off in the distance is Eshonai.

Implying that the next book will be Jasnah's? Also, I think it was Eshonai on the WoK cover. Could be wrong though.

I wanna know hoooooooow lol

Shouldn't the cover be Dalinar... Still pumped though.

I am so hyped for this book. Like OMG, I just cannot wait.

Yeah, I thought the metal was sand at first. Then I saw it was metal. The cover is still... whew. I literally teared up at this. Someone send tissues.

Probably one of my favorite covers from Whelan. I really really love his portrayal of Jasnah here! Honestly my only quibbles are that his first black and white draft in this pose had lighting that made the brass look more metalic than it does in the final, and the thunderclast seems a bit wonky, but other than that? Spot on. Jasnah in particular looks amazing.

AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!

Ah, okay, fair enough!

and is that a thunderclast at the back?

Hell yeah, dude!
