The Friday Face-Off was created by Books by Proxy, where each week bloggers can showcase books with covers centered around a weekly theme. You can visit Lynn’s Books for a list of upcoming themes. Join in the fun each Friday by finding a book whose cover is based on the theme!
This week’s theme: “The children of the night. What music they make!” – A cover with a vampire.
As the last Friday Face-Off of Sci-Fi November, I decided to go with a sci-fi centric vampire story, and so I picked The Passage by Justin Cronin. There are some lovely covers and I wanted to share them. Let’s take a look:
U.S. hardcover 2010 | UK paperback 2011
Canadian edition 2011 | Polish edition 2011
Finnish edition 2010 | Turkish edition 2012
Lithuanian edition 2011 | Dutch edition 2011
I particularly love the covers with trees, but for my favorite I’m going to have to go with the Polish edition, mostly because I love the colors:
I had a look at this one for this week’s theme. I love your choice, I still like the cover with the girl in black and white but that’s because it’s the one I’m familiar with but I love the colours of your winner.
Lynn 😀
Ahoy there! I didn’t like this book very much but I agree that yer cover choice be the best. Arrrr!
I definitely didn’t even realize this book had vampires, haha. I really like the cover you chose, though I am quite partial to that Dutch edition as well. Those trees and colors are beautiful.
The Polish one is nice, and I like the ones with trees too- especially the first one (which is the one I’ve seen the most, so maybe that’s it too). The Turkish is very similar so I guess I like that one too. 🙂

I love the trees, too, and the colors in the Finnish one are so pretty, but I think the Polish is my favorite, too, Tammy.
I like the Dutch version, it’s so similar to the US hardcover but the inclusion of that lone figure changes it completely and makes it so much better!
Ooh I like the Dutch one! See, you like the colors on the one you chose, but I like the colors on the Dutch one. They match my blog kind of lol.
I love the Canadian one. Such lovely colours <3
This is another book i'm planning to read for yeeeeeearrrrrs 😀
I thinkmy favorite is the Dutch!
So many good ones! I like the Lithuanian except for too much print on it so I’m going with your choice too.

My favorite cover is the US hardcover, just because it’s the most tasteful, attractive, and anon-creepy!
“non-creepy.”
My favorite is the UK paperback 😀 Great Choice this week!
