Check out the cover art for the paperback edition of Annette Curtis Klause's Freaks: Alive on the Inside:


Isn't it beautiful? I'm pretty sure that's the same artist that does Bill Willingham's Fables series. The hardback cover was perfectly competent (see below--doesn't it look like a computer game?) but this artwork seems like a better fit for Klause's creepy, fantastic story.


Unfortunately, you can't count on publishers to actually follow through on cover art. We might end up seeing something completely different on the shelves when the book is released next summer.
