Book Covers by J. Purrington

I picked up a copy of Let the Right One In from Amazon yesterday and was reminded of how not appealing the cover design for the book was.

The cover for Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card that Jared created is pretty cool as well. Check out his website for some of his other illustrations and projects. One word of warning though, don't ask his opinion of the film Wall-E. You may get more than you bargained for.
