Some of these covers are pretty, and some of these books are interesting, as usual. There are a couple that meet in the middle as being ‘pretty damn interesting’, at least for me.
The two prettiest covers are All the Hidden Paths and Emily Wilde’s Map of the Otherlands. They are also more than a bit alike. Generation Ship and System Collapse are damn interesting and much anticipated, although their covers aren’t all that. And then there’s John Scalzi’s Starter Villain. I’ve had an ARC of Starter Villain for several weeks, waiting for the cover to be revealed. Now that it has been, I can’t stop laughing every time I see it. To the point where I can’t resist the damn thing at all so it’s what I’ll be reading this weekend, even if it won’t be published for several more months.

What an interesting collection of books! I hope that you enjoy them all. Starter Villain’s cover looks like something from a vintage MAD magazine! I hope you have a great weekend!
You’re so lucky to get the Emily Wilde book! I only see it as “wish” on NetGalley, and I don’t have good luck with wishes;-) Enjoy!
