    Wow, I'm first to vote for a change! Day and Awakening are the only two here in my collection. The latter is extremely dull, so Day gets my vote - the book is one of the best in the range, and my one is a good 30 years old now and that cover makes me feel very nostalgic! The Daleks themselves look all wrong, but that was usually the case with Achilleos.

    Not a bad bunch! I was almost tempted to vote for the Leela-tastic 'Face of Evil', but the original 'Day' is too good to beat.

    I'll vote for Carnival to be different then! And because it's the most eyecatching.

    I was tempted by Leela in her leathers but it's classic cover DOTD for me

    I've always liked the Awakening cover, and it gets my vote here.

    I quite like Crusaders and Day of the Daleks has the nostalgia element of being my first Target novel. I don't like the COM cover, but Face of Evil is one of Pearson's better attempts. A good round really.

    The original DotD cover rocks my world!
    One Day, I shall come back, Yes, I shall come back,
    Until them, there must be no regrets, no tears, no anxieties, Just go forward in all your beliefs,
    and prove to me that I am not mistaken in mine!

    It's taken me a while to decide, as they're all really good covers, but in the end, unusually, I've gone for a Virgin reprint cover - 'The Face Of Evil' has been blessed with good covers in all its incarnations, and this one is no exception, even if the smiling Leela somehow doesn't suit the tone of the story.

    I've got a soft spot for that 'Crusaders' cover, and even the 'Carnival' one is very good. I was quite tempted by both 'Day' and 'Awakening', but they seem to be doing alright as it is, so it's Louise and the two Toms which swing it for me!

    Louise would swing it for most people.

    I'll rephrase that...
