What makes a great fantasy cover
Fantasy covers promise a world. Rich colors, ornate serif titles and a sense of scale tell readers this is an adventure worth hundreds of pages.
- Classic, carved-looking serif fonts like Cinzel feel epic.
- Deep purples, golds and fire colors feel magical.
- Emblems and symbols work well for series.
- Keep the title clear even when the art is detailed.
