You definitely need to go read this post about the whitewashing of the new covers of Cindy Pon's "Silver Pheonix" and "Fury of the Phoenix" books from ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
inkstone. And then, you need to go buy the book in it's original cover if you can. I certainly am. It's book time.
Oh, and for those who don't want to deal with the Amazon monster:
Powell's has the on sale, original covered hardback. NOTE: The paperback version, however, is the one with the NEW cover.
Barnes & Noble has the hardcover for $15.38 and the paperback version for $8.09, though I wouldn't trust it's availability. (ETA: NOTE: These WILL eventually have the new covers, and while the art on the website is still the original cover, you might not get that version. Check when ordering!)
If buying the book isn't an option for you, you can request the your library get a copy of it if it doesn't already stock it. You can also, if you feel like signal boosting, link toinkstone's post, or you can post a review of Silver Phoenix and mention about the new covers. All these things would be helpful. I know people have different things they can and can't do.
( So that's the signal boost. On to your promised ranting with a side of teeth gnashing! I recommend reading inkstone's link first. Much better than mine! )
