Lorilee: Dreaming of Akrasia

All of the books in this series have such jaw-dropping covers, it’s hard to pick just one.

Gah! What the hell is that creepy thing in the back? Yuck. I think its face is sliding off.

Nothing on here goes with anything else.

Design Process:
Let’s put in a castle, any old castle will do, and a blonde model toting a sword and chains. How about a redhead with neon eyes? Yeah, let’s do that. Oh, look at this accident I made in Photoshop. Kinda looks like a demon. Great. Put some eyes on it and we’ll use it.

It’s like it’s been designed-with-what-you-found-on-the-floor.

Looks like the cover designer isn’t just dreaming of akrasia, but actually went ahead and did it.

Also, photobombing… yeah, what is that thing?

‘Dreaming of Akrasia’ is written in the same font and font colours as the title card from Twin Peaks, oddly enough.

1. There is a man in a grey, fluffy smiling bag.
2. Without links, she chains.
3. The eyes are not what they seem.

On the covers of Book 1 (6 Jul 2014), Book 2 (7 Jul 2014) and Book 3 (31 Aug 2014) the Redhead is Moira (apparently same photo of face and hair) but starting with the cover of Book 4 (27 Aug 2014) the Redhead is Lorilee, daughter of Moira, so a different photo. The cover of Book 5 (8 Sep 2014) uses the same face, rotated slightly plus some more red hair imposed but identical original part. The artwork for Blondie from cover Book 1 is reused for her reappearance on cover Book 5 with the raised fist imposed with the chain links imposed on that.

What do the covers for the saga of Moira and Lorilee on the Divided Worlds of Earth and Akrasia teach us, boys and girls? Be a Heroine: Recycle and Save the Worlds.

Is that Geena Davis’s head inside the blonde lady?
