Some daring folks have taken up the challenge to create their debut fantasy novel cover. Below are the results – awesomely bad, to be sure. If you give it a shot, let me know and I’ll add your cover to the mix.
Dream of Illusion @ teacherninja. Nice font – can we get this on an actual release?
The Vengeance of Argir @ teacherninja. Not only a spooky cover, but an award winner as well.
The Findrindis Children @ B. Nagel. The lone tree in a desolate landscape – fantasy gold.
Crystal of Discord @ Charlotte’s Library. Not much crystal, but plenty of discord.
Circle of the Unholy Maiden, The Spirit of the Dream, and The Golden Stone @ malindalo. Malinda decided, in true fantasy fashion, to create a trilogy of covers.
Queen and Doom @ Taking Flight. I could actually see this one on shelves.
The Power of Lodon @ DaveBrendon’s Fantasy & Sci-Fi Weblog. Giant butterflies help a sail-less ship.
The Memory Dream @ Archimedes Forgets. Caught between two worlds – butterfly or cat?
The Crystal and the King @ ayuddha.net. Turning up the heat (and the world on its side).
Herald of the Golden Magic. This one’s mine. The worlds strangest “ice breaker” activity.

Thank you! My computer here at home isn’t up to putting it all together, but stay tuned for the cover of Spiririel’s Seed by Malak Sandra Zivit.

These have been turning out pretty amazing – I look forward to taking a look at Zivit’s (great name) debut.

Hehehe yè, not books that will leap out at you from the shelves, I agree. :-) But it was cool putting it together, thanks for pointing us in the right direction and letting us loose! :-)
