About the gallery

What a good cover has to do.

A cover has two jobs. It has to tell a stranger what kind of book this is in a second or two, and it has to make them want to pick it up. The covers above come from very different eras and genres, which is the point: a space opera, a fantasy and a literary reprint each speak a different visual language, and readers notice when a cover gets it wrong.

When we design a cover for you, we start with your genre, your readers and the books that will sit next to yours in the store. You see three original concepts, you choose one, and we refine it. Read more on our book cover design page, or see how a cover fits into print and ebook publishing.
