The Endure Cover. How was it made.
When Matt approached me to take on his fourth cover in the Protector series I was a little trepidations. Not because I couldn’t do it, but mainly because I was following in the steps of another designer that had already produced three fabulous covers. Strict guidelines never work for me.

The spear should be embedded in a “bad” book on the other side of the design. Lizzy wanted a dark feel to the design, to go with her “Dark Fiction” theme.
