Look at the following cover. Imagine that you have only the cover and the information it provides (including images, title and author name) to decide whether to buy this (or any) book.
Would you buy this book having looked only at its cover? If so, what on this cover sold you? If not, what on this cover turned you off?
If you have, in fact, bought and/or read this book, tell us how well our verdicts guided us. Did the cover lead us rightly into great fiction? Or did the cover wrongly steer us toward a bad story or away from a great one?

I might. The little starburst with a recommendation by Clive Cussler would make me want to pull it off and look at it at least. I enjoy his stuff and if this was something similar in the thriller/action hero genre I might read it.
The picture doesn't tell me much. Is that an oil derick in the eye of some storm?
