I'd say K'rul's Belfry myself.
Hello, soldiers, look at your mage, now back to me, now back at your mage, now back to me. Sadly, he isn’t me, but if he stopped being an unascended mortal and switched to Sole Spice, he could smell like he’s me. Look down, back up, where are you? You’re in a warren with the High Mage your cadre mage could smell like. What’s in your hand, back at me. I have it, it’s an acorn with two gates to that realm you love. Look again, the acorn is now otataral. Anything is possible when your mage smells like Sole Spice and not a Bole brother. I’m on a quorl.

But that's a square tower!

If I'd forgotten that, what are the chances the artist didn't know? And how many other towers are mentioned again? Baruk's?

From other discussions about this cover I got the impression that the tower has nothing to do with the books per se.
@Illy...Baruk didn't have a tower, he had an estate....

I don't believe the Jaghut tower was in GotM. My guess is Shadowthrone's tower.
I was assuming K'rul's temple... or Mock's Hold.

Overall I like the covers. Some are better (like GotM), some not as much.

New GOTM: The top of the first tower, where Ganoes and someone.. I forget who, are talking. The Prologue when the 'mouse' is rising.
New DG: Well, thats the cover I have, sans the spartan-helmet stamp... which is cool... but seems a pandering to the '300' crowd.
New MoI: I just cannot think of who that might be.
New HoC: thats my current cover, although I think the 'camera' has panned to the left a little
New MT: Maybe the artists rendition of an Edur burial at sea? Frankly, using the ends of the new 'stamp' on the... metal design in the middle seems somewhat tacky to me. -

GOTM = looks like Mock's Hold. Won't be the tower in Unta, cos that's the palace..
DG = The old one...
MOI = Some soldier, don't have a clue. The old cover was FINEEEE.
HOC = The old one
MT = Don't have a clue... it's not Withal's sword cos no one is holding it. Empty throne? ... Dunno
DG = The old one...

Well, I like the new cover of GotM, I wouldn't mind that being the cover; I think I like my American cover better.
I'm also extremely happy the DG cover was basically untouched.
While a cool picture, I like my American cover for MoI much better. It is very, very acurate on the actual events in the book, and gives you insight on what two majors characters would look like, as well as a reference to something that happens to another character later in the book. Gives the "So that's what that is!" feeling once you find out.
I have the American cover for HoC, not sure which I like better though. The one I have doesn't seem acurate but I just don't like that one for some reason.
The MT cover isn't that great IMO. Don't get me wrong though, these are all great pictures...just not what I would want for my covers.
