Cover Combat: Gone by Michael Grant

I do not know about you, but I do judge books by their covers.
In Cover Combat I compare US covers with the Swedish covers of the same books, to see which covers I like the most!

This week the covers of Gone by Michael Grant are being judged.

US Covers:



Swedish Gone Cover:



Which cover do you prefer?

At first look I preferred the US cover over the Swedish one. But the Swedish cover is growing on me, and I'm liking it more and more. I think the kids on the Swedish cover look deserted and lonely - which fits the story perfectly.
Which cover do you like the most?

I do judge book by the covers as well, it is so difficult not to. If the cover doesn't attract me than I need a really good review to convince me to read the book.

I like the Swedish cover, the Norvegian cover is boring as always.. identical to the US cover.

I think I like the Swedish cover better because it looks more realistic. I also like the US one, but just not as much. Great post!

To be honest, I think the Swedish covers are better. I like the colour changes, and they're more haunting...brilliant post! :)

I like the Swedish cover better I think... but is it showing a city skyline? That's a bit weird...
