Sheep Story

Three Bags Full has an interesting cover. I think the subtitle alone would grab my attention—A Sheep Detective Story. The use of primary colors combined with the stark silhouettes makes this cover rather enticing. I was unsure about the numbering until I saw the back cover and what it stated about each character. The cover seems playful enough but I’ve read that some reviews that state the book becomes rather dark and serious towards the end. A darker more sinister cover just wouldn’t do this book justice methinks.

Compared to the UK cover I think my preference would be obvious. Yours?

I just found the German covers with the original title Glennkill which doubles as the setting of the mystery. These are remarkably fun. I need to get this book.
