Book Trailers Still Suck


Fresh off this morning's cover debut from Orbit, Gollancz fires back with A RED COUNTRY book trailer.


When are publishers going to stop wasting their time on these?

Not only does it not convey Abercrombie's tone at all (unless A RED COUNTRY represents a significant departure from his style), it just looks awful. There is a static "texture" filter placed over some CGI nonsense cut from a 1997 PC game. And that scream?

Blegh.
