A shadowy forest landscape under a foreboding dark sky. In the foreground, wisps of fog obscure the outline of a menacing wolf with bloodstains on its coat. The moon casts a ghostly light, creating eerie reflections and long shadows. Splashes of dark red subtly hint at danger, while branches stretch across the top as if snaring the viewer’s gaze.
The font is a distressed, sharp serif to echo the thriller and suspense genre, with "To Feed the Carnivores" in bold, boldened in dark red. The author's name, "malampa," is smaller in a subtler shade and positioned on the lower right-hand corner.
Title is centered near the top, with the wolf directly underneath, providing a focal point. The author's name is positioned at the bottom, with all elements aligned to guide the eye naturally from top to bottom. The background remains mostly black and white to enhance the color contrast of the dark red text and details.
The visual composition aims to create a chilling, eerie atmosphere fitting for a thriller. The choice of a moonlit forest, along with fog and shadows, sets a dark and empty mood. The wolf symbolizes danger and unpredictability, enhancing the book's suspenseful nature with its visible bloodstains. The typography features a distressed serif font to evoke tension and unease, using dark red to hint subtly at blood and violence, whilst maintaining the stark contrast with the black-and-white background. The layout leads the reader’s eye from the suspenseful title at the top to the ominous imagery below, ensuring a clear flow and striking impact. The matte finish of the cardstock augments the dark theme by offering an understated and tactile experience, fitting the ominous feel of the cover art.
