The one in the Syngress site is the definitive one - take a look at the
first paragraph of the provided chapter 1, which talks about the cover. Part
of the Amazon confusion with this and other recent Lego books by Syngress is
due to the way the publishing business works. Book projects are announced to
the rest of the industry (i.e. distributors) way in advance to ensure
appropriate slots in shelves, catalogues, promotions, etc. Between that
announcement and the actual completion of the book, many things can and do
change (cover, authors, title, etc).

Of course, this does not necessarily apply always. For instance, it could be
different if an author approaches a publishing house with a finished manuscript.
