I have to vote for Shatter the Sky: great premise summed up quickly, f/f, underdogs fighting a corrupt emperor, DRAGON. Also, I like the girl on the cover.
I like the cover and title of Beasts of the Frozen Sun, but that summary doesn't really give anything away.
Ship of Smoke and Steel has a great cover and possibly f/f; the summary doesn't do it any favors, but I'm still hopeful.
A River of Royal Blood: I just really like that cover!
The Girl King sounds fun.
The Triumphant really, really reminds me of the Wonder Woman movie Amazons in terms of visuals--I bet that was deliberate.
Princess Ninjas looks adorable.
I looked up the axe cover at the top of the article (not in the big block of Girls With Swords Oh No), and that one sounds pretty neat:
Warrior of the Wild by Tricia Levenseller. "As her father's chosen heir, eighteen-year-old Rasmira has trained her whole life to become a warrior and lead her village. But when her coming-of-age trial is sabotaged and she fails the test, her father banishes her to the monster-filled wilderness with an impossible quest: To win back her honor, she must kill the oppressive god who claims tribute from the villages each year—or die trying." (Summary quoted from Goodreads.)
