More Book Cover Critiques!

Lovely imagery on this one! Both the tree and the dragon inform the genre as a YA adventure with some fantasy. Now, the subtitle on Amazon says it’s a YA Sci-Fi Mystery featuring global myths – a bit different, but…

Once more into the limited color scheme and interactive font. The lack of capitals in the title and subtitle are evocative. The figure surrounded by feathers and the word ‘seraph’ invoke angelic theme to the story, as well as the…

Simple doesn’t have to be bad. In some cases, it’s fantastic. But this one is far from simple. Limited color scheme, check. Strong iconography, check. A font that speaks to the genre, check. I would have liked the subtitle to…

LEGACY OF LUCK IS ON PRE-ORDER

GET YOUR PRE-ORDER HERE! Remember, Tirgearr Publishing, still publishes books 4-9, and they’ve been fantastic. They still have my travel guides, The Enchanted Swans, and Call of the Morrigú. However, as each Druid’s Brooch book’s contract comes up, I’ll be taking…

The swirling clock and the title inform the genre as time travel, with fantasy or romance overtones with her flowing dress. I like the color scheme, as it gives connotations of dark themes, maybe horror or thriller. However, I might…

We have a two-fer! I like both these strong covers for the same book. They both adhere to a strong, simple color scheme, iconic imagery, and incorporate the title with the background. For the first cover, it took me a…

Symbol day! Covers with simpler iconography or a symbol rather than people. Even though this has many elements, there is a lot of great strength in this imagery. The strong central symbol is reminiscent of a sun in eclipse, and…

How about some strong women on our covers today? I’m a fan of interesting frame details, so this definitely caught my eye. The book is a retelling of the Aladdin tale, so it definitely fits the story. A hint of…

Today is blue and purple day! Simple, haunting, and asking questions. I don’t think it even needs the ‘A gripping psychological mystery’ at the bottom, because all of that is evident in the single smoking, melting candle and the tag…

Lets go dark today! Interesting tagline with ‘James Patterson presents’ – I’m guessing this is one of the writers he has helping him with his own books striking out on their own? Regardless, the addition is gold for marketing. It’s…

Today is fire tones day! I’ve seen Lorna Peel’s covers before, and they’re always lovely. This one is full of Regency vibes, with that lovely house. The title font is wonderful – just a bit of scroll, but not so…

Legacy of Truth, the second book in my Druid’s Brooch Series, is currently not for sale. Not to worry! That’s only temporary! You see, it’s been published by Tirgearr Publishing, and they’ve been fantastic. They still have all my other Druid’s…

Today is blue and purple day! This is lovely, full of Young Adult Fantasy feels. The font is fancy but is big enough and high enough contrast not to be lost. I would have liked more contrast in general, but…
