standing book mockup, Its title is "Hollowborn ". Its author name is Daniela Martínez Pascual.  A dimly lit forest with bare trees in the background. The foreground shows the girl, depicted with striking, delicate ethereal features on one half of her face (Hollowborn side) and a sharp scar with rugged, hunter-like armor on the other half (Hunter side). Two male figures are silhouetted in the distance one is enveloped in shadows, exuding a brooding presence, while the other is surrounded by a faint, golden glow expressing warmth.

Visual Composition:

A dimly lit forest with bare trees in the background. The foreground shows the girl, depicted with striking, delicate ethereal features on one half of her face (Hollowborn side) and a sharp scar with rugged, hunter-like armor on the other half (Hunter side). Two male figures are silhouetted in the distance one is enveloped in shadows, exuding a brooding presence, while the other is surrounded by a faint, golden glow expressing warmth. Blood stains scattered across the forest floor lead into a path of darkness. Above the forest, a crescent moon partially obscured by clouds casts a faint silver glow.

Design Typography:

Elegant, serif font for the title "Hollowborn," with slight, jagged edges to imply tension and danger. The author's name appears in a simpler, clean sans-serif font placed below the title, in subtle gold tones.

Design Layout:

The title "Hollowborn" is central and slightly above the character revealing her dual identity, with the crescent moon positioned directly above the title. The bottom half of the cover contains silhouettes of the two Hunters in a medium-sized font shadowed by the pinned theme of leaves & darkness. Below this, the author's name rests at the lower edge of the cover in a clean design. The surrounding composition preserves a natural symmetry between elements.

Rationale Behind the Design:

The visual composition delivers tension by putting the girl—who represents the themes of inner conflict and transformation—at the forefront and the ethereal background amplifies the haunting atmosphere of the murders. The two silhouettes build a subtle tension of the love triangle with contrasting personalities. The font style for "Hollowborn" represents an intricate balance between elegance and edginess, perfect for fantasy genres. Using a glossy paper stock with embossed elements brings alive the contrast between her Hollowborn and Hunter features, making them tangible for readers. This setup ties into the book genre and emotions directly, creating a cover that is visually gripping and narratively coherent.
