But inching closer. These are my two contenders at present; I can't quite making up my mind whether I like the nested "A Rational" or not. I think it looks a little more elegant and is a little less readable. Hrmph.
So do I. I was impressed and pleased by the sheer good sense of the idea of polling for the cover; getting a consensus is exactly how to find out what people will pay money for.
(And even when it gets to the review stage it's still useful, at least in identifying a clique; the use of identical catchphrases, for instance.)
It looks more cover-ish without it! :) It is getting less and less like the headers, but being stylistically consistent with art that isn't even going to show up in the initial edition is not really necessary.
On the art, I'd suggest lightening the darkness of the dancers to left and right, you want the attention to be on the center figures, not peering at the figures to the side. ;)
If you want two lines of coverblurb there, the nested one of these two is much better, because the title and coverblurb aren't crowding each other. Un-nested, the larger title is crowding.
S'all right, I like the nested text better with this font too. And I like this font better than the other ones I've tried. So it's probably the winner.

I like the cover better without the border. :)
