"The Immortal Jackal" is a Non-fictional book that talks about the ancient Egyptian god Anubis and his influence on culture. So for the design, I took elements like Anubis (obviously), Pyramids, Moon and stars. Instead of directly using a picture of Anubis, I wanted to convey Him as a god, not as a physical entity but as a spiritual being in which ancient Egyptians used to worship and believe. While doing my own research, I saw that the moon and stars have some sort of relationship with ancient Egyptian mythology, therefore thought of putting them in the design as well.
Above Anubis, I tried to designed a portal that connects the Afterlife. So bottom half of the cover represents this world where people and animals are there and through the God Anubis, they are guided to the Afterlife.
