A Cover Sells Books
You’ve written a masterpiece. Now let the Cover Villain ensure readers click to your product page or pick it up off the shelf. I focus on composite image covers for Science Fiction, Urban Fantasy, Fantasy and Paranormal Romance. Working with authors, I want to focus on emerging trends and blend that with time-tested visual cues that sell novels. Have ideas you want to bring to the table? I value a strong commuinications between designer and client. My goal is put a little villain in every cover I make.

Cover Villain is one of the most talented cover designers out there. I am so impressed with each cover he produces. They just keep getting better and better each time!
Cover Villain listened to concerns about my book covers and worked with me to develop a concept that supported my brand. He empathized with my frustration and made sure he kept the lines of communication open. Ultimately he delivered on his promise. I couldn’t be happier with the covers for my series.
Working with Cover Villain is the equivalent of dividing your brain to work on graphic design, while being able to keep on writing. His attention to detail, and understanding of your concept and goals means you can sit back and let him explore to create something that’s fresh, and unexpected, but still on-brand.
Cover Villain not only saved my butt when it came to formatting my book, but he did it in record time and helped me every step of the way! He also was very quick to fix anything I asked him to, and answered any questions I had. My book has come out even better than I could’ve ever imagined, and the layout is beautiful!
The Cover Villain not only asked what I wanted for my covers, but he made sure that I was considering aspects of my genre I hadn’t even thought about. He made sure that the reader was the focus of his designs. He nailed the urban fantasy tropes and I couldn’t be happier with the covers he delivered.
I turned to Cover Villain when I was in a quandary about covers for a series. I usually have an idea of what I want, but this time I had no picture in my head. Jeremy Flagg of Cover Villain came up with the perfect concept for the series, and then developed that concept into fantastic covers. It was such a relief! He is a true creative genius.
I decided to make my first book a nonfiction book aimed at the general public, and Cover Villain nailed the concept while also making sure the cover was eye-catching and beautiful. I’ve already commissioned two more covers from him, and I would definitely recommend him to any author looking for a collaborative process to make their book come alive!
I’ve been so impressed by the work of Cover Villain. I sought their service as a defeated writer, unable to work out how to create the professional files I needed to publish my novels wide. Cover Villain took my headache away. Not only did they offer an affordable service for this Indie author, but they created everything I needed perfectly to take my writing career wide.
