Cover of Cate Baumer's As Born to Rule the Storm. The silhouette of a female figure saluting stands in front of the grey silhouette of a plane with a speedometer (or whatever they're called when they're on planes) behind her. The main background is red and the figure is a very pale grey that's nearly white.

Cover of Gareth Barsby's Rebecca and the Grinning Worm. A sinister cartoon face in the style of Earthworm Jim leers out at the reader from above the title, clawed hands splayed threateningly. The creature has a pale blue face with yellow teeth, yellow and red eyes, and grey-black hands. Beneath the title is an irate-looking cartoon, anthropomorphic crow in the same style. She's wearing an orange-yellow longsleeve shirt over a red undershirt. The background is an opaque black.
