Oh, I found their review. If you click on the link, you’ll see a far better version of the cover there. Same thematic elements, but done far more competently.
Nope, I’ve never heard of them; although now that you show it to me, that site does look rather professional. Something always worth remembering when designing a cover is that review sites are a dime a dozen these days, and not a lot of casual browsers are familiar with the “who’s who” of the indie publishing industry. Splashing more than one endorsement from a review site on your cover mostly just looks kind of desperate.
Maybe they just read the book and the book is better than the cover. With this cover, I’ll never know. Who can account for taste, somebody may like this cover.
