I'm sorry that you felt women were being objectified by the cover, Kamosa. There is a certain goofiness factor to the illustration, I admit, but the female elemental spirits on the cover aren't presented as some sort of object of desire. They are nude, but in the same classical sense that fey and many feminine mythological spirits are nude. There's no sex on the cover, and the rather cartoonish nature of the characters possesses far less titilation than the Phil & Dixie comics seen in the back of Dragon for years. Kamosa, I understand your reaction, but I think it's a little extreme, given that the cover is not presented as sexual image, just an interpretation of the classical connection between magic and the feminine.
Oh, and this doesn't count as a review, so no sequel for you. *wink*
