eefara Posted October 3, 2015 Posted October 3, 2015 Is there any interest in possibly putting together a cover gallery, hardback and paperback, of all the different releases of Brandon's books across the different languages? Publishing information, such as publisher, publishing date, and ISBN, could also be added to help those who may want to find a specific book. It could also be used as an easy identification tool if someone's found one of his books but are unsure as to which country it came from. 1
Joe ST he/him Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 You do realise that much of this is already available on Brandon's website yes? If you visit the book pages for many of his books and series there are options to view cover galleries, interior art and other such things.
Guest Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 Unfortunately, Brandon's website isn't the easiest place to find things quickly. I would support the idea of a cover gallery.
Young Bard he/him Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 I concur. Just for Elantris, after a brief glance in Google Images, I found at least 8 different covers for various parts of the world.

If you visit the book pages for many of his books and series there are options to view cover galleries, interior art and other such things. Yes, I am aware. But as others have mentioned it's not easy to find; not only that, but the author's website is the last place I'd look for such information, since it's rarely there. The covers aren't super informative, either: you can generally tell what language the book's even in, but that's only for the obvious ones.
Botanica she/her Posted October 21, 2015 Posted October 21, 2015 (edited) This is really a good idea! A comprehensive cover collection from different editions sounds wonderful =) I'll be glad to contribute images and information for some books in foreign language. For example, this is what I've collected for The Way of Kings so far: Edited October 21, 2015 by Botanica 3
Mestiv he/him Posted October 22, 2015 Posted October 22, 2015 I'm 100% ready to submit all the Polish covers
navybrandt he/him Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 I think Goodreads already does this.
Zea mays Posted March 4, 2016 Posted March 4, 2016 This is a great idea. Do you have a link to Goodread's collection? I noticed that Krhart just uploaded his Apocalypse guard cover art on DevArt (along with some awesome Wax& Co art) Also, Breath Art posted his gorgeous cover to the Chinese edition of first Mistborn book (His WoK cover is in the collection Botanica posted upthread).

For example, this is what I've collected for The Way of Kings so far: image.jpg Storms. The other countries have better covers

Vissy Posted May 1, 2016 Posted May 1, 2016 (edited) I've got the UK Covers, but I really love the French, Polish, Bulgarian and Japanese ones too. Bulgarian because of Dalinar, that's awesome. Edited May 1, 2016 by Varangian
