I would like to commission a cover for an e-book edition of my historical novel „Fortune’s Wheel“. The book was originally published in German, and the cover I am looking for now is for the English translation edition.
The e-book cover I am commissioning can be similar but doesn’t need to be. The typeface used is lelf_noir_du_mal and I would prefer it be used for the new cover as well. If you decide to employ a medieval-style drawing it should depict or include the “Wheel of Fortune” which was omnipresent in medieval art. However, I would prefer not to pay for image rights.
Recent covers of English language historical novels I find interesting and modern are for example “A Column of Fire” by Ken Follett or “Stormbird” by Conn Iggulden , but I am open to fresh ideas deviating from these or from my own traditional book designs. I do not, however, like photos of people in my covers.
