I'm not sure, but I'm pretty sure this is just plain wrong. A selfpublished book cover was so good that Harper Collins decided to copy it.
Now, I'm sure like Titles and what not, you maybe can't copyright a cover (or can you?) but really, HC and all there money and staff and cover artist's couldn't come up with their own original idea?
Okay, and steal might be a little bit too strong a word (according to the great and powerful Mac) it's really just copying... but still.
