The Forest of Damned Souls
Designed by Rafal K.
Available to hire ⏺"It's a Scottish thriller featuring a fresh female constable solving mysterious crimes in the vast Scottish woods, blending thriller, fantasy, and a sci-fi twist. Scottish thrillers are often straightforward, with covers focusing on the main character or motifs. I wanted to go beyond that, highlighting the genre's greatest asset—mystery—without sacrificing artistic quality. The cover itself is a riddle, with the solution revealed only by reading the story, adding intrigue and depth."
Designer: Florian G.
Eternal Seas (The Relic Hunters)
Designed by Florian G.
Available to hire ⏺"We aimed to convey adventure, danger, and establish a fantasy world with young heroes. Middle-grade stories often use detailed, figurative illustrations, but I suggested a more graphic style inspired by cut paper. The colors are strikingly powerful and they are rarely used in this book category. The logo stands out beautifully, even as a thumbnail. Despite the amount of information depicted, the image remains very easy to read."
Designer: Joshua G.
A Slayer's Reckoning
Designed by Joshua G.
Available to hire ⏺"This story gave me a clear vision from the very start about what I needed to show: a badass Terra wielding her khopesh in a graveyard. To make it happen I built the prop weapon and sourced the outfit myself for a reference photoshoot I did with local model, Ella. When the final painting is paired with the title the reader knows exactly what to expect. The vibes? Revenge. The Fantasy? Urban. With licks of blood dripping from the 'teeth' of the typography as an allusion to the vampire sub-genre."
Designer: Madli S.
Designer: Candice B.
Eve Archer
Designed by Candice B.
Available to hire ⏺"The novel is an urban fantasy with outer space elements. The protagonist's clothing conveys the urban vibe, while nebula clouds represent space. I included a dragon and fireball in the background to highlight the fantasy aspect.To break away from typical YA covers, I chose a cropped side view to convey action and suspense, rather than a glamorous front portrait. Graphic elements like concentric circles and stars blend symbolism with realism for a unique and sophisticated design."

Dreamer's Folly
Designed by Alejandro C.
Available to hire ⏺"This cover invites readers to follow a child on his quest, encouraging discovery through the story. We walk with him through medieval streets filled with characters and background micro-stories. The street-level perspective draws us into his adventures. The dark tower in the distance, symbolizing danger, is strategically placed and interwoven with the title's letters, adding a hook to spark interest in the story."
Designer: Madli S.

The Tears of Apphat
Designed by Arjan v. W.
Available to hire ⏺"The author and I aimed to give this book cover a cinematic feel, like a movie poster, full of atmosphere while showcasing the main character. The story is set in a fictional desert world with Arabic influences, which is expressed mainly in the typography. The subtle sacred geometry in the sky references the magical aspect of the story. These geometric designs reappear at the start of each chapter, creating a cohesive and unified design throughout the entire book."

Bibi Blundermuss and the Tree Across the Cosmos
Designed by Devin W.
Available to hire ⏺"I leaned heavily into the young adult illustration aesthetic for this cover design. I worked closely with the author to understand his vision and incorporated several spooky elements in the illustration that pop up throughout the story. I illustrated the main characters in addition to designing a number of interior illustrations and a hand-drawn typeface. The author said it was fun to see his story come to life. It was a bit like getting to illustrate my own animated movie."
Designer: Angela R.
Summer's Snow
Designed by Angela R.
Available to hire ⏺"For this cover, we aimed to evoke the atmosphere of a classic dark and dreamy fairytale. We maintained an air of mystery, avoiding too many reveals, while including subtle hints on the front and back that tie into key moments in the story."
Designer: Eoin R.
Eamon in the Library
Guy Petelli
Designed by Eoin R.
Available to hire ⏺"The cover captures a key moment of tension early in the book where the main protagonist has to make a choice, this scene had a lot of strong visual elements and encapsulated the main themes of the book well. I tried to balance a strong visual that looked contemporary while being true to the look and feel of the book’s world. The depiction of one of the main characters of the book as a large humanoid bird creature draws the eye and makes the design overall more unique."
