Uncovered (10): Masque of the Red Death

You guys have probably seen this one floating around blogland but I just had to feature it this week. I am a big fan of Poe and I’ve been dying to read this. I saw the cover last year and just fell in love with it. There’s something so mysterious about it and a little creepy. There’s clearly a woman’s body but the face is shadowed and indistinct. The red and grey mist floating up and around gives it a dark and gloomy feel. The colors are perfect and the image makes me think of nameless, faceless death. Gives me goosebumps! Definitely one of my favorites so far this year. I hope that the book is as good as the cover looks.

Masque of the Red Death will be released next Tues, April 24.
