No, you fool, it's worse. Why are you fixing something that ain't broke? |

I like the second cover better. It is "cleaner" graphically and the figure is more distinguishable.

NOTE: Everything I say below is moot, if my initial assumption is incorrect.
I did a quick search on Inkmesh, and it seems that The Walk is only available as an ebook on Amazon. Given that, even though I find the premise of The Walk enticing, you could put a sultry bikini clad fashion model licking a banana on the cover and I will not be buying it. Donn P.S. even though unless it is released outside of the Amazon prison I will not be purchasing it, the new cover is much better. |

My above comment is moot. I just found it on Kobo.
But with the OLD cover! I am gonna buy it anyway. <embarrassed shrug> |

I don't know whether it's the new cover, or simply word-of-mouth building, or more Kindles being sold, but THE WALK is selling better than ever. It has already sold 300 copies more than last month...

Probably due to all the subliminal exposure here ...

Well, I don't know if the new cover helped...but it certainly didn't hurt. July was my best month so far for THE WALK...I sold 880 copies. I know that's nothing compared to how Joe Konrath and some others here are selling (with all of my out-of-print books combined, I am earning on the Kindle in one month what Joe earns from his ebooks in a week). But for me, for a book that was out-of-print and earning me nothing a year ago, it's very exciting.

I like the grass road but the dimensions and general lay out of the second one appeal to me more. So I guess I'm a yes, with reservations...
