A looming, smoke-like beast with eerie red eyes and sharp, jagged teeth dominates the upper half of the cover. Below, four armored knights wield swords and shields, poised for battle against the shadowy figure. The beast seems to emerge from swirling black and red smoke, adding a sense of movement and chaos. The background is a deep black, enhancing the suspenseful and fearful atmosphere.
Bold Gothic-style font for the title "The Shadow King" in red, with a slightly distorted, smoky effect for drama. The author's name, "Dan Burns," in a sleek, smaller serif font at the bottom, contrasting in white.
The title is placed prominently at the top, with the visual composition centered. The author's name is at the bottom, giving it balance, allowing the reader's eye to flow naturally from the top to the bottom of the cover.
The visual composition is designed to evoke fear and suspense by depicting a dramatic confrontation between knights and a supernatural foe. The choice of a Gothic-style font in a blood-red color ties the design to the thriller genre, suggesting danger and foreboding. The use of a matte finish with spot gloss positions the reflection on the shadow king’s eyes, making them gleam ominously, which captures a reader's attention. The carefully planned layout, where the title stands out at the top and the author’s name at the bottom, ensures a balanced distribution of elements, enhancing readability and visual appeal.
