The job of a cover on the internet or on a store shelf is to give people browsing for books a visual idea of the theme of a book. The author and title should be readable at thumbnail size.

It‘s really exciting to be privileged to write ….

Evil critic, go check the new cover, I wanna hear more of your unkind criticism.

I am reminded of a line from Manos:
Torgo: The master would not approve.
