The Lost Prince UK Cover

Hey guys!

I was going my daily book cover check up when I found the UK cover for The Lost Prince by Julie Kagawa (check out my review HERE)!! I don't think you guys have seen it yet so I really, really wanted to share it with you ASAP. Are you ready? Are you sure? It's pretty amazing so I think you'll have to brace yourselves:
The Lost Prince (The Iron Fey: Call of the Forgotten, #1)
Don’t look at Them. Never let Them know you can see Them.

That is Ethan Chase’s unbreakable rule. Until the fey he avoids at all costs—including his reputation—begin to disappear, and Ethan is attacked. Now he must change the rules to protect his family. To save a girl he never thought he’d dare to fall for.

Ethan thought he had protected himself from his older sister’s world—the land of Faery. His previous time in the Iron Realm left him with nothing but fear and disgust for the world Meghan Chase has made her home, a land of myth and talking cats, of magic and seductive enemies. But when destiny comes for Ethan, there is no escape from a danger long, long forgotten.

After a while of staring at it, I realised it looked a lot like the book it recommended on the cover, Snow White & The Huntsman.

The font is similar and so is the scenery. Come on! Look at them closely!!
You can see the resemblance, can't you? Oh well, I think the publisher has done really well designing the cover and I can't wait to see it hit UK shelves! But, if you live in the US make sure your looking out for this cover:
The Lost Prince (The Iron Fey: Call of the Forgotten, #1)
I was a little disappointed when I found out that Mira Ink were not going to use the cover above for the UK version because it looks awesome! But oh well, the UK cover is pretty cool, too.

So, which cover do you prefer? UK or US?! Leave a comment below.

Have a great week,
Sam :D

  1. The UK cover looks okay but.. you know, I really have to go with the US cover because it's rocking gorgeous and Ethan is freaking hot and all I wanna do is stare at it and.. and.. ohmygod. I have to stop.

  4. I like the USA version better, plus I don't like the phrase they put on the cover, I prefer for books to stand up on their on spines, not claim to be for fans of _____.
