Check out the NEW LOOK for The Curseworkers series by Holly Black!

Posted In: Cover Reveal


The newest book in the series (hitting shelves APRIL 3! mark your calendars!) is Black Heart!

Here’s a little more information about the book and it’s BEAUTIFUL cover! WARNING: Don’t read the summary if you haven’t read Book One: White Cat or Book Two: Red Glove! The summary is a bit spoilery! Just look at the pretty cover!

Cassel Sharpe knows he’s been used as an assassin, but he’s trying to put all that behind him. He’s trying to be good, even though he grew up in a family of con artists and cheating comes as easily as breathing to him. He’s trying to do the right thing, even though the girl he loves is inextricably connected with crime. And he’s trying to convince himself that working for the Feds is smart, even though he’s been raised to believe the government is the enemy.

But with a mother on the lam, the girl he loves about to take her place in the Mob, and new secrets coming to light, the line between what’s right and what’s wrong becomes increasingly blurred. When the Feds ask Cassel to do the one thing he said he would never do again, he needs to sort out what’s a con and what’s truth. In a dangerous game and with his life on the line, Cassel may have to make his biggest gamble yet—this time on love.

And the newly redesigned covers for Book One: White Cat and Book Two Red Glove:

    Those covers look FANTASTIC. I have no idea how it fits into the series, but I think they’re gorgeous, and luckily I only own the first one so I can collect them all :)

    I think that the covers are really nice. I love them. I just have no idea how they go along with the story. I also hate that now they will look dramatically different from the rest of the series. But I still cant wait to read them!

    AHHHHHHH love this series, and I love these covers! :D Not gonna lie, I’m pretty sure the original cover of White Cat turned off a lot of people, so I’m hoping more people will read these books now with these covers :) Squees, although I’m curious to know what the cover of Black Heart would have been w/ the original style of the covers, I’m pretty happy with the new covers :)

    I have to admit, it makes me crazy when publishers change covers mid-series and even crazier when it happens on the last book Clearly I need to win these so my bookshelf will be all matchy matchy and satisfy my freakish need for order.

    I think they are better than the ones with models on them, because then you can imagine your own characters. Whenever a model is on the cover you try and figure out which character that is and then thats only how you imagine them. So, yea i like these new modern covers =]

I will admit I’m a Holly Black Virgin, I haven’t read anything by her, but I have always wanted to lose it LOL to the Curse workers series LOL and now with the beautiful covers I want to read them even more. Though I do feel and even though I haven’t read the series that the other covers did embodied the story better than this ones, but I haven’t read them so who knows. But they’re beautiful.

But then seeing all three of the new covers together, I have to say that they definitely caught my eye. In other words I like both the old and new covers.

    Personally, I prefer the old covers. I have only read White Cat in this series, but the new cover has nothing to do with the book imo. To me, this looks sciencefiction-y and just ugh. Having said that, I HATE that publishers decide to change covers when there are already books published in a series. Readers who have been a fan of the series and bought the books when they came out, won’t have matching books and will have to re-buy the entire series to get them matching. It seems to be some sort of trend in YA and it’s something I strongly dislike.

People like to have the whole matching set (like me). But they do look pretty freaking awesome!

    Those covers are stunning! There’s something kind of art deco/retro about them. Beautiful!

  110. I love these covers, beautiful! I liked the old covers too, even though I usually don’t like anyone putting a “face” on a character,because it rarely lives up to my own imaginings:) Thank you for the contest. I have “Red Glove” but am missing my copy of “White Cat.” Can’t wait for “Black Heart” to see how everything wraps up for Casssel and Lila:)

I love the simple black background with the bright contrasting title, and how the design is tied to the main word. I love an understated design, it makes me want to examine it more.

    I think the new covers are cool, but the old covers captured something about the series that was SO Holly Black! I’m not a big fan of cover changes mid-series, because I rush to support books when they first come out and hate that I can’t complete my collection. But at least, with this series, we have a choice. These are cool, but I think the others remind me of the book, more.

    Great series! I also like the new covers, but I can’t see how they fit in with the story. I guess new readers that didn’t pick up the books before, may pick them up now. And that is good, because if you haven’t read these, you’re missing out!

    These covers are definitely beautiful but I don’t feel like they’re fitting for the series. The old ones definitely had the sort of crime noir feel that the novels give off. I do think it’s cool that they seem to draw a whole new audience in but I’m not sure they’ll get what they’re expecting.

    Also, since the titles have a color in the name already would it have been so difficult to use the colors in the cover? It seems a simplistic thing to say but I think they’d look better. More varied.

    Why?!?! I adored the old covers. They fit perfectly with the mobster themes, and they have significance within the stories. The new ones are gorgeous but generic, and totally don’t fit in with the style of Cassel’s narration.

    I especially don’t understand it since a cover for Black Heart was already designed in the old style. Do you know why they did the revamp? Why bother making the “original” Black Heart cover if this was going to happen?

    When I first saw the new Black Heart cover, I definitely preferred the old set, but seeing them together, I’ve warmed up to them a little, especially Red Glove. Still love the atmosphere of the old ones and a little disappointed there won’t be a third, but the new ones are still pretty sweet, and even a downright ugly cover wouldn’t be able to discourage my enthusiasm for this book.

I mean…WHY do they have female image on White Cat? No guy would pick that up and it’s Cassle’s story. And I HATE when publishers change the design mid-series. Some people want their books to match.

  230. White Cat is on my TBR pile, but maybe I should wait because these covers are amazing

    Well, those are sure interesting. I definitely prefer the other covers. They just feel so much more fitting. I can just feel mafia and all it implies oozing off the old covers. This screams retro afro. Not really selling it for me.

    I’m not a fan of the changing of covers period. Maybe it’s my aversion to change, though in this case, I do have a signed original copy of WHite Cat. It’s the only one I own, though, so it wouldn’t be horrific to buy the new editions to look nice and neat; I just wish that the publishing company would settle once they’ve created the finished copy of the first book. Though it might have to do with people judging a book by its cover (guilty as charged), and that affecting their sales. But I digress. They do seem very Holly Black-ish, though. As simply covers, they’re definitely eye-catching.

    I saw at least one of them months ago and was hoping that it was a joke (especially since I’d already seen the “normal” cover for Black Heart and loved it). They remind me of something from the 1970s (not a good thing) and don’t match the tone of the books.

    If I have a choice and both covers are released, I’ll definitely buy the one with Cassel and Lila.

  318. I’m kind of having mixed feelings about these new covers. The old ones were so edgy looking and I loved them. The new ones have a strangely appealing retro feel to them, and I think they still portray fairly well the emotions/theme of the book. It will still look weird, however, to have the covers not look the same on my shelf. But, since they had to re-design them again, I think they couldn’t have turned out better!

    I actually liked the older covers better just because they fit my idea of what the characters should look like. I also liked how they positioned the title as the cover image with the red glove and the black cat. Though, I wonder if they got to black heart and thought, “how am I going to photograph THAT?” Easy: dissection (eww).

This is such a great series to recommend to teen boys, but the new covers are too feminine for my tastes. Also, I don’t see how these covers relate to the Curseworkers series.

  352. I really like the new covers, but I loved the old ones too! It is almost harder for me to like these because I loved the old ones so much.

    The covers look great! Definitely something I’d gravitate towards in a bookstore, if only to figure how it was done.

    I do like these new covers, but am disappointed that there will not be a release of Black Heart with the current cover set.

    I’m so excited for this book!
    I’ve read all of Holly Black’s books.

    As for the new covers, I like the one for Red Glove, but not the rest of them.
    I like the people on the previous covers. I’ll get used to these ones, though. They’ll grow on me.

    I think the new covers are fresh. I am a bit confused on why most series are changing their covers though? Is there a certain reason for this?

    Anyway, I do really like them. Thanks for the giveaway! You rock. :)

  361. Phew! Thanks for the heads up on not reading the summary!!! You are the BEST!!! I wish more people would warn newbies to series to stuff like that :)

    And thanks for the awesome giveaway! I’ve been seeing awesome reviews on this series but, ya know, there’s only so much moolah to go around!!

    They’re very interesting new covers, but I personally prefer the previous covers, I think those were a little more striking

    I love the new covers! They are gorgeous!

  365. I love the new covers, but now I’m going to have 1 mismatched. I only own book 2 right now (from the Borders Sale), I want to get them all so I’ll have to hunt down a copy of the old cover for book 1 at least. Book 3′s cover is my favorite though.

    I have grown to love these covers. Don’t mind having doubles of the books at all. :D

  373. These new covers are beautiful, though I did like the other ones as well. I listened to the first two on audiobook and I am totally looking forward to reading/listening to book three.

    I liked these *a lot* better than the original covers. The original cover of White Cat kept me from getting it from the library for months. It just didn’t look interesting.
