Opinions please - TigerBill - 05-14-2018 12:04 PM

Please give me your thoughts on this as the basis for a book cover. It involves time travel, shootouts, car chases, murder and, of course, dinosaurs. Would this entice you to check it out?

Not me, but my children? Most definitely.

Thanks! That helps. I believe they're young adults, right?

It would peak my interest for sure.

Everyone loves dinosaurs

But time travelers AND dinosaurs?

Where do we preorder?

I knew you were my favorite poster. Soon as the cover is finished it'll be up for pre-order, but truly, thank you.

Yeah, not aimed at that age group though. Although...hmmm...something to think about. Thank you.

Thanks, I'd love for this series to take off like my first one did. Maybe then I'd get some TV/Movie attention.

If it's heavy on dinosaurs yes but if that was the cover and dinosaurs only played a small role would be pretty upset

Oh no, they're pivotal. They're kind of the whole point and the Allosaurus is a character. But since his dialogue is kind of limited I have to put some people in it. Seriously, dinosaurs were the whole point of writing it.

Could you include a car or people in the foreground instead of the trees to help show there's more than just dinosaurs?

The problem you run into is that it has to look good as a thumbnail, so the more details you put in the harder it is to attract attention. And the layout has the foreground covered up with graphics anyway. However, we are playing around with putting prison bars across the dinosaur image.

Ummm... The picture doesn't show time travel, shootouts, car chases, or murder.

I think the cover misses in a "You Never Even Call Me By My Name" kind of way.
