Axis

A reader emailed me to ask what the Axis cover looks like. As it happens, it just came back from the printer few days ago and it looks super cool on a foil paper stock. We printed a fair amount of white underneath the colors so that the final effect is a satiny sheen, rather than an overly reflective "wrapping paper" effect.

The galaxy was created by Dave Seeley. The design by Drive Communications. Dave has done numerous covers for us, most notably the L. E. Modesitt science fiction books. Drive has created countless covers for us, on both the Tor and Forge sides, as well as our Starscape logo. Drive also designed the great coffee-table books, Science Fiction/Fantasy/Horror of the 20th Century for Collectors Press.
