A Fistful of Fire by Misti Wolanski
What's the genre? What's the logline? What is it you like or don't like about this cover? Does it make you want to know more about the book? Does it make you want to BUY the book? Discuss.
I would say that I do not like the cover. I think that the typeface is all wrong and very hard to read. I could barely make out the “chronicle” part in the middle I also think that that is the wrong place for that test. It shouldn’t be in the center of the book.
I also question purple fire. Unless this is a major part of the book I would suggest that the fire should look like fire.
I have to agree with Eric. It took me a while to figure out the graphic. I had to work at it to see hands holding fire. I also don't care much for the font or the colors.

ReplyDeleteBased on the cover I would say Fantasy.

ReplyDeleteSorry, but I think this one needs a do-over.
Hey, an honest opinion's always best. :) Thanks for being so forthright about it.
