Kelli - it's in the ENCLAVE cover, lower right-hand corner.

Glad you told us...I have been seeing Razorland around and it's good to know that it will now be Enclave. What did you miss in Razorland's cover? I looked at the bigger picture but I missed it.

Wow I didn't know they were changing the cover...

Wow I didn't know they were changing the cover and the title. I'm really looking forward to reading this and it's already on my wishlist. I like the original better because I'm already fond of it too. But I'm getting this book no matter the changes because it sounds awesome! Oh and thanks for the heads up I would have been totally confused.

Thanks for posting this! I actually noticed Enclave the other day, probably on Goodreads, but for some reason didn't process that it was the same book. I already fell in love with the description, so I'll read it either way, but I was partial to the original cover. The blood drop on the new cover is a nice touch, though.

Thanks for the information Ann! I'm glad they decided to change the cover and title before the book was released. Hopefully that will avoid any confusion. I agree about April being a better time of year for a book release over January because I don't have much room in my budget for books right after the holidays. I also agree that the new cover will target a broader audience because it's more gender-neutral. I still like the original cover but I'm sure the new cover will grow on me :)

The book hasn't been released yet. They decided to reposition it for a broader market. The repackaging caused a pushback in release date. It was originally scheduled for January, but it's April now, which is actually a better time of year for this sort of thing. It's all very exciting.

Keep an eye on the internetz in the next couple of weeks for the live-action trailer. It's amazing.

Kulsuma - The original cover gives me the impression that it is dystopian but I wasn't completely sure. I'm on the fence about whether or not I'm going to read this book; at the moment I'm leaning towards reading it.

I'm pretty sure this hasn't been released yet. I'm looking forward to reading it as it's dystopian. I liked the old cover though the new one is somewhat brighter. I would actually pick up both these books based on cover.

For some reason, I thought Razorland had been released already. But according to Goodreads, the release date is in April of 2011. I'm not sure if this is the release date for the *new* version of the book or if it was the planned release date all along. Can someone confirm this?

If that's the case, that the cover and title were changed before the book was released, then it may not be that confusing after all. But if there was a cover and title change after the book is released then that can cause quite a confusion.

I understand why books get new covers and even a new title. However, if I've bought the first version and they change both cover and title, I feel like they're trying to dupe me.

That said, if I saw these side by side, I'd be more likely to pick up/purchase Enclave.
