I think they should have coordinated what each cover would show
I'm pretty sure they (she) did come up with 12 concepts and artists right away (I doubt she carries on this project month after month, she's the main AD for Tor - she probably worked on most of the covers in parallel at some point), but Irene seems to rely heavily on Jason to validate the concepts, and Jason is fan very much into the triva/plot/characters, not really as much into themes etc. If you read his paragraph she quoted, you see where the flaw came from, that is he's the one who turned the Cleansing in her mind into a great Rand moment, oblivious to the team work aspect.

It looks cool... eh, I think I'd have liked a different way of showing it, though

I like the artwork, but I think they could have a bit more dynamic IMO *NM*

Better than the orginal, but a picture of a turd would do that, too. *NM*

Isn't this cover done from Nyneave's point of view? She was sitting directly across from him *NM*

Then they should have fish eyed it, so you could see her cleavage along the bottom of the picture. *NM*

It's OK. Fairly average considering the range of possible scenes the cover could have shown/conveyed
