The Friday Face-Off was originally created by Books by Proxy:
each Friday, bloggers showcase book covers on a weekly theme.
Visit Lynn’s Books (@LynnsBooks) for a list of upcoming themes.
Please visit also Tammy at Books, Bones & Buffy (@tammy_sparks)
thanks to whom I discovered this meme.
This year, there’s no weekly theme, you just choose a book you have recently read.
In January, I listened to a French scifi, actually the end of a trilogy.
Unfortunately, only book 1 has been translated into English. No idea why, as you can see the third book exists in many other languages.
A fascinating scientific look at the world of ants, but also how they can inspire us to make another type of revolution!
I posted a few more thoughts about it here.

You can also right click and ‘open image in new tab’ to zoom in
My favorite cover is the last one here, Éditions France Loisirs: the pyramid is an important element in the story, and I like the bright sunrise background, like the rise of a new day, in keeping with the idea of revolution.
Have you read this book?
WHICH COVER IS YOUR FAVORITE? WHY?
Not sure about my next participation,
all depends on how my next reads will qualify

I like the Romanian edition the best (purple cover). Maybe because the ant is sort of blurry and I do not like ants, lol.

lol. The blurriness is just a resolution issue here, as I think the cover I found was very small.
Actually, you may want to read book 1 in the series, that shows how clever the ant society is – lots of the book is real science. Fascinating.
In my thoughts on volume 1, I added a link to a fascinating documentary by Attenborough: https://wordsandpeace.com/2022/01/16/sunday-post-49-1-16-2022/

Intriguing title. Without reading the book, I’m inclined to believe that ants will ultimately outlast us. 😀 Several cool covers here, Emma. I wasn’t able to pick a favorite.

It looks very fascinating. If only I could read as fast as you do, I’d be sure to add it to my list. 🙂
