Covers are improving, but strong women in chainmail bikinis and tight clothing regularly appear in comics and subgenres such as urban fantasy and paranormal romance.
Those who self-identify as avid readers and rely on cover art to identify the myriad subgenres within the romance category complained that the new cover obscured the novel's meaning.
Which is not fair, as rock is the umbrella under which so many bands fall and to say the genre as a whole is dead is to put a toe tag on all the subgenres as well.
