This doesn't have anything do with snakeskin, but does the cover actually look like this anywhere??? http://www.fantasticfiction.co.uk/h/anthony-horowitz/Cos the one I read's cover looks nothing like it.

Are you just asking this question for a joke or are you being serious? If the cover was made from real snakeskin it would be a revolutinary in the publishing world, news agencies all over the globe would be scooping it up. It would be smething nobody would ever forget! Apart from the fact there's probably sme law against doing things like that for mass production, it would be completely unparactical to use real snakeskin, AH's main audience is young children and young children would probaably vomit if real snakeskin was used  which would cause a MASSIVE reduction on sales and the costs of real snakeskin would be tremendous as well and don't even get me started on the manufacturing problems it would cause!

Most humble apologizes, ma'am. I hope you don't find this question off topic, it's not meant to be, but what's the price of hardcopy Snakehead vs paperback?
