It is true that the covers of the novels are usually not quite up to
common cover standards but they arn't that bad really some of them
are actually quite nice. It is just that the paper has such a low
quality (atleast I feel that) that the pictures suffer some from
that and there is the fact that the covers have very twisted ideas
about the content :)

One novel with a "nice" covers would be "2XS" (and the good in that
book just keeps going until the last page).
