Book Cover Design is here

Hello everyone - i would really appreciate any comments on a book cover I've done for my first novel. I know this is normally arranged by the publishers but I couldn't help myself. Take a look and let me know what you think. I could really do with some constructive criticism.

Book Cover Design

As well as my very hectic and time consuming day job I am also managing to squeeze in a few hours here and there to finish my novel. It is a fantasy fiction novel based on a young witche in her mid teens. I have nearly completed the book jacket which I will post shortly for comments and advice. In the meantime if anyone has any favourite book covers and styles they would like to share I would be interested to see - either post links or images,

cheers
