Song of Susannah.
I prefer weird, dark artwork. I loved every piece in this book, but this one might be my favorite if I had to pick one.
I liked The Wastelands artwork a lot as well.
I've said this already, but I really dislike WAG.
Yeah! My second favorite artwork in the series... THAT is some dark, bizarre stuff. I especially like that one, and Jey (hawk taheen) and Black 13.Song of Susannah.

When I hadn't read DT7 yet I thought it's a girl... and shame on me now that I have read it I still see a girl in this pic. I simply cannot see Jake.Erin - along with the cover of DT7, that pic of Los is prob the best pic in the series. i also love this one, particularly Oy...
Roland would have understood.
thank you John for all those links!
though now I wish I had never seen W&G pictures...
yes, mine too, I thinkOther than the cover art for DT7, this one is my favorite:
Ask not what bears can do for you, but what you can do for bears. (razz)
When one is in agreement with bears one is always correct. (mae)
bears are back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
favorite book?
definitely michael whelan's work so it's a tie, DTI or DTVII.
i think this is my alltime favorite:
and i think this is from little sisters of eluria (which i haven't read but should) - it's been my desktop background for months and i've always loved it:
(sorry that's so big)
That sure looks like brown hair to me...When I hadn't read DT7 yet I thought it's a girl... and shame on me now that I have read it I still see a girl in this pic.

or a reddish-blonde and dirty from his adventures to that point.That sure looks like brown hair to me...
Sure man, if you say so.
Dirty blonde or light brown.

I call it: artistic license.
I never saw his hair color that way or read it that way either. Now, it is closer than Bernie's interpretation for sure, as well as Dameron's but to totally rip on them for not making Jake's hair color blonde.....going a little overboard.
Granted I do agree that Whelan seems to be the only artist that is clearly a fan of the series and has actually read the books.
Can I rip on them for my own pleasure?

Yes, of course!
Fucking Bernie and his dumbass!
Why on Earth he chose to go with Bernie Wrightson for the Wolves artwork is beyond me...They should have gone with the artist for the regular paperback edition. Now THAT was some good artwork.

Who was that? I've never actually seen the paperback of Wolves before...only the trade pb and hard cover editions. They aren't the same?
No, the artwork is quite good. I'll see if I can find a good picture...

Is that normal to have a different artist for the paperback editions? Are all the rest that way too?
Yeah

Damn. I knew there was another reason I wanted The Books in HD, Trade PB and paperback forms!
Do the paperbacks all have pictures/paintings? Or just minor chapter-type drawings?
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HHHHHHHH

Fav book, deff DT7 but just as equally DT3. Fav image, hmm well the one to inspire me to break from a huge personal project I have been chugging on for along time and start my Road to the Dark Tower series was the image of Jake in front of the Keystone Lot Rose. I'm a particle freak that does a ton of scientific viz (astro-physics related so that image just sucked me in long and hard to wanting to create my own vision of the Lot Rose.)
Most disappointed work, DT4 fav book but not happy with most of the work from it. However we happily have the comic series to make up for it!!!
in my opinion this is the collest picture of the series
