    • This is a fairly irregular contest held by the scifi/fantasy book review website fantasyliterature.com. The basic premise is that there are some books with really ugly/horrifying/bizarre covers, and we need to come up with titles for books that would actually match the cover.

    The game is fun, so I thought I'd share it with all of you! Here is the ongoing competition (mildly NSFW) . I've tried to come up with a name for this one, but I can't beat some of the ones already suggested.

    But we don't have to stop at the current cover! This is the eighteenth cover we've renamed. This forum didn't like it when I posted 18 links on one page, so I'll post 5 others for now, and then if this gets going I'll add new farther down. Eighteen is rather a lot to rename all at once anyways.
    1 2 3 4 5

    These early ones are rather tame. The current cover should give you a small taste of what's to come, though. :evil:

    Now start renaming away!


    Also, it's worth noting that FantasyLiterature.com has a giveaway like this (not always rename-this-cover, though) every Thursday. So if you are interested in any of the books in their stacks, then I definitely recommend visiting frequently.
