By the way, I think I've gone from being ambivalent about the cover to kind of hating it.
It would have been better suited for the cover of Heavy Metal, or maybe some sourcebook for a post-apocalyptic table-top RPG in 1992. I bit my tongue when I first expressed doubts about the cover. Nevertheless, your publisher is probably correct in that the artwork will probably attract a few new readers.
Not that I am looking to further bag on artwork, but as a matter of curiosity, isn't there a mass-market version of Low Red Moon coming out soon-ish? Have you seen the proposed artwork for it?
