I found this book on Amazon.
Judging by the book reviews I don't think SRD has anything to worry about!
'Comparable to Tolkein at the age of three.' Washington Post
'Something entirely out of a land-fill site...you'll not want to go through The Runs of the Ear, and The Fat Reverand Mother.' The Times
'The St.Thomas' saga is complete and utter rubbish which will certainly find a place on top of the pile at the Cleethorpes Annual Bookburning Convention.' The Cleethorpes Bugle
'Olsen has absolutely no imagination...she can't write to save herself and wields symbols like over-boiled cabbage.' Washington Post
'I actually enjoyed this book. I can't see what all the fuss is about.'

Okay ... everyone should be through with holidays and be back to their normal routine. (Me especially.)
We've got some good entries ... vote 'em up, folks!

All the entries were very good, each had it's own merits.
My vote goes to Matrixman's picture (the ghostly tree and full moon).
It looked the most realistic as a book cover.

I have to go with neo's Against All Titles Ending Ing-ly.
It may not be an actual representation of Against All Things Ending, but it hit the perfect spot for me.

Another vote for MM's Against All Titles Ending In -ly.
Thought it brilliant at the time, still do. Funny concept and well-executed.
...and we all need the laugh even more now.

Plus, I am sure she would have voted for it.
Furls was a strong supporter for
Shall Pass Utterly to remain the title for the third book...

As usual, I'll vote for 2.
Matrixman's tree is brilliant. And Krazy Kat's Ghastly Ending is also brilliant!

My favorite was MM's "Against All Blondes Marrying" comedic entry.
Nothing like a cheesy RomCom Book Cover.

Krazy Kat's TOT parody is just too funny.
But I also really like Kaydene's cover for its nightmarish creature. If I saw that in a store, I'd want to read the back blurb to see if it mentioned what the hell that thing was.

I still like aTOMiC's one the best:

And the winner is ...
Matrixman!
Yeah, he owned this contest. He wins for his much-retitled-ly entry, and his ghastly tree came in second to lock him in. Sure looks like you had some inspiration, M-Man.

Totally happy with this decision.
Congratulations!

Thanks, everyone!
Oh, and I've always liked
Shall Pass Udderly, dAN. It's a great follow-up to
Fatal Ruminant.
