I'm making this one a contest too, since I have more ARCs to giveaway. I feel so rich! I usually get maybe two ARCs. Okay, the first person to correctly name each language or country of publication wins an ARC of Palace of Stone. Also one random commenter will win an ARC (chosen via a random number generator). PS. I changed the file names so no help there! Just to keep things interesting, ONE of these is not a real cover but fan art. Some of these images are quite low quality, sorry I don't have any better. Illegibility will make this contest even harder!

I'm not actually going to guess any of them at the risk of looking ignorant being unable to distinguish between various non-Latin alphabets, but good luck everyone!
