Sci-fi book covers

Book cover for “Exploration Capri – Inferno” by Christian Klemkow

This design was a layout proposal and was never published. “Inferno” is the beginning of a multi-part dramatic science fiction series, that takes the readers on a journey through space and time. The story is set in the year 2033, when humanity considers itself the crown of creation. It’s only then that Earth reveals its innermost, bringing the island of Capri to a terrible inferno… which changes the world forever. The author requested the representation of one of the main scenes, when an immense white energy beam comes from the deeps of the Earth in the direction of a distant planet. Having this scenery in mind, I decided to place the two planets in a position that would allow the energy beam to cross the main title. Apart from achieving a very symmetrical balance in the entire design, this was also meant to give a very curious detail, where the beam seems to pass right through the vertical line of the letter “P”.

Book cover for "Breaking Regulations" by Victor Serrano

"Breaking Regulations" is science fiction disguised as dark fantasy. Most of the book takes place in the outer section of a cylindrical generation ship that is mainly croplands and walled towns. The main character is Marcus, a mercenary swordsman. The design has a dark and mysterious atmosphere, not only to match the story, but also to better catch the attention and curiosity of the potential buyers/readers. Not showing too much of the interior of the ship, also allows everyone to imagine it in its own way, when they read the descriptions on the book.

Book cover for “Giants of Iniquity” by Jason Covington

This design was a layout proposal and was never published. It was created for a cautionary tale about what America is becoming. This science fiction book is a sort of metaphor for what is happening in our society, bringing the excitement and intrigue of paranormal and spiritual discovery, together with a supernatural battle between spiritual forces in an age of advanced technology and cultural shifting. As it is set in San Francisco, the client required a clear skyline of the buildings of the city, from which a giant violet construction stands out, not only by its size but also by the different appearance and materials. The major challenge was precisely to represent that giant building in a way that could show its different nature, following the descriptions on the book — “some kind of magnetic force field, not glass or steel”.

eBook cover for “Meer der Stille” by Jens Bühler

“Meer der Stille”, translated from German as “Sea of Silence”, is a Sci-Fi Thriller set in 2048. An international crew embarks on a flight to Mars, when they’re awaken by the emergency protocol. The chaos and destruction reign on board, making impossible to complete the mission to their final destination... or even to return to Earth. The journey into nothingness begins. Apart from requiring a spaceship with a specific shape, damaged and with visible signs that would represent the unfortunate events, the client also wanted to convey the impression that the ship was drifting and completely lost in space. Therefore, I decided to place it in a certain way (in the diagonal) in order to give a sense of instability, to better represent its critical situation while is being destroyed and outside of its route. The effects that I gave to the title also reinforce that destruction, where the metal appears scratched and burned. This design was a layout proposal and was never published.

Book cover for “The Soul Snatchers” by Richard Sanford

This design was created for a science fiction novel, set about a dozen years in the future. The diagonal form of the buildings gives a great depth to the cover, also helped by the running man and the strong light at the end of the street. This contrast between zones of light and shadow was made to create impact and transmit a sense of mystery. Since the story has to do with the malicious, mesmerizing effect of a presence on social media, the author wanted to include some kind of electronic device (mobile, tablet or computer). However, I also added some details as a watermark, like the circular grid with the zero and one numerals, in order to have a certain "technological atmosphere". Another of the requests was to create the design with a blue/gray palette with gold highlights, since this is a color combination that can attract the public of this book genre.

Book cover for The Rings Of Saturn

Short synopsis: "It’s 2026. After years of preparation and against all odds, the world witnesses the launch of a privately funded expedition on a six-year roundtrip journey to Saturn’s moon Enceladus. A crew of five heading to the edge of the solar system to potentially answer the deepest, longest standing questions of our species: where did we come from? and, are we alone in the universe?" The client asked for cover image to be realistic and awe-inspiring. The book is firmly in the "hard" Sci-Fi category, but should appeal to anybody looking for the ultimate adventure story. This was the book cover I absolutely enjoyed working on.

Postcards from the Moon

The story centers around a series of actual postcards that come from outer space and the moon. In the book, space travel doesn’t have the kind of modern feel that we associate with modern NASA projects. The version of space travel depicted should look like something from the late 1940s or early 1950s. It should be very retro.

Primal cover for a Sci-Fi/Horror book

The novel centres on a group of ex-Marines who on a search and rescue mission come face to face with an unpredented enemy — an entity that represents, in the author's words, "ultimate terror.” The struggle for survival they must engage pits not only their fate but the future of humanity in the balance. I wanted to imagine what original terror might look like, in frequency if not in form. Ostensibly a head or a mask, rendered as a lattice or a cage, I intended in this custom illustration to create a sense of impending dread, more than to represent something physically defined as such. I wanted to leave open whether the entity at the centre of the book is an organic being, a metaphysical entity, or a non-organic force or assemblage. Of this world, of another world, or of all possible worlds? Within the mask — if that is what it is — in the lower half appears a woeful human head or face, caged within the unthinkable. This is my first book cover contest on 99designs.

Three boys entered the woods. Only one came out. When asked by police what happened to his friends, the shivering child said a “Night Light” appeared and “took them away.” When asked “away to where?” he answered: “To Hell.” Laura, a naive scientist, journeys to find out what this “Night Light” is. She thinks she already knows, but, as she investigates the strange circumstances surrounding the mysterious phenomenon, she realizes: she’s dealing with something not of this world. What follows is a whirlwind of cosmic horror and paranoia for Laura, as the research forces her to confront increasingly deep and disturbing questions: Are we truly alone? Do realms exist beyond ours? Are there limits to what science can know? …Is Hell real?

As you know it -book cover-

"The Starship Descry has been defined as humanities crown jewel. It shimmers and gleams in the backdrop of deep space. The distant nebulas and galaxies seem dwarfed by its massive size and light omitted by the massive thrusters shine as bright as a small star in the sky. The starship has two main structures on either end, connected by a tunnel. Like a gigantic spine, the travel tunnel is surrounded by two massive, rotating, gravity generating shafts. The starship coils through space like a twisting corkscrew, leaving a trail of neon blue behind, emitted by four ion boosters at its rear."
