New Cover for The Earthquake Machine by Mary Pauline Lowry

 

Several book bloggers commented to author Mary Pauline Lowry that the novel's current cover doesn't do the book justice.  So, she had a new cover commissioned by award-winning author/photographer/cover designer Suza Scalora. 

I definitely like this cover better though the old cover reflected the geographical setting of the book whereas this one is more trendy and less revealing of the story.
