That's Seattle? Paul, why would your publisher/art person choose a picture of Seattle for a story set in New York? Maybe he thought he could get away with a stock photo? I thought most cities had very distinctive skylines from the water, and you would recognize them from a distance and know it was your city, while tourists took pictures. This would be part of my criteria for choosing an image. Why wasn't it part of his? (I'm always kind of sad when I watch old movies and the Twin Towers are in the skyline.)
Very good catch mrTitanic, and welcome to the board.
We all talked about the sword, but no one said anything about the view from the ship or the skyline. Curious how we all accepted that photo from the start, but debated about the bottom photo.
