I love the Jae Lee covers for Sommers' Cates books way too much to adapt to anything different. Those covers are what attracted me to the books. However, I can understand the reasoning behind putting a different approach out there.
Boneshaker has a great cover (and looks like it could be a fun read). What is up with this emerging "steampunk-zombie genre" anyway? Wahtever it is, I like it.
