Original Book Cover For
Visual Composition:

The cover features a shadowy, ethereal palace under a large, looming eclipse in the sky. Silhouettes of faerie figures with delicate wings are partially concealed by swirling, dark shadows that seem alive. The background is a mystical landscape with deep purples, midnight blues, and touches of silver that hint at starlight.

Design Typography:

The title "Altari The Realm of Shadows" is in an ornate, Gothic-style font in silver with a slight glow effect. Author's name "G M Chalkley" is in a simpler serif font, placed discreetly at the bottom.

Design Layout:

The palace is centered, with the eclipse directly above it. Shadows and faerie figures arc around the sides, framing the title at the top. Author's name is aligned at the bottom.

Rationale Behind the Design:

The visual composition draws inspiration from dark fantasy elements, creating an atmosphere of mystery and enchantment with the depiction of a deity-like palace under an eclipse. The choice of a Gothic-style font for the title enhances the fantasy and mystical feel, while the simpler serif font for the author's name ensures readability. Using a high-gloss paper with a subtle texture not only makes the cover visually striking, but also infuses depth, bringing the shadowy elements to life. This material choice ensures durability and complements the reflective silver fonts, which accentuate the mysterious aesthetic of the dark, enchanting realm depicted.
