... and the green-cover hat has less distinct whipped cream, too. The first one has better-defined frothy toppings.

I hereby christen her Meringue Lady!
Is it me or does the orange title blend into the background too much and the white title not as easy to read as it could be because of frilly stuff?

Also reminds me of a big Catholic christening I attended when my sons were teens. Eldest DS leaned toward me as the baby made its entry festooned in lacy white robes. 'Another child succumbs to the attack of the killer doiley,' he whispered. How I managed not to burst out laughing I'll never know!

We are strong and not afraid to die
We have an urge to kill and our lust for blood has to be fulfilled
WE´LL FIGHT TILL THE END! And send our enemies straight to Hell!

I like the ship cover better. But why is the pendant floating in the sky?

If they wanted to show it in a large size to get the details, at least if it's floating in the sky it looks better than that gigantic photoshopped pendant the woman was wearing on that other cover (I think that book was called The Pendant).
Her make-up is way too heavy in both shots though.
