Fantasy and Science Fiction - both categories that are hugely relevant in our generation, even though they were only introduced by Katniss Everdeen. This category doesn't only cover these two, though! This is for any designer who considers themselves to make graphics that are more dark in nature.

Other examples of cover genres include Mystery & Thriller, Crime, Horror, Action, Adventure and Paranormal. Let's face it - we're all guilty of staring at (facing!) pretty covers too long, deliberating whether to buy this book or the other. Sure, the first book sounds much better, but the second looks so pretty!

Here are some examples of dark covers. If you're unsure if yours qualifies, feel free to message GuildofGraphics with your entry and we'll verify it for you!
