The Tempest Tales uses the silhouette of a man but colored angel wings behind him which ties into the plot line of an angel taking the form of a man to help a dead soul that refuses Hell realize why he deserves his fate. The bold orange text pops against the black of the man.



Will Grayson Will Grayson demonstrates the use of two texts that overlap just slightly, but the 'ill' in 'Will' are both connected to make very long versions of the letters which corresponds with the story of two boys with the same name whose lives intertwine by mistake and ends up teaching them a lesson about love. The pop of colors in the background correspond with the scenes in which the teenagers go to concerts and dances, which also makes the book look fun.



Red Dragon is an example of using color for your book cover. Using a center point image of interest (A human-dragon mix that looks like a demon) the whole book and demon are bright red which is a color of anger, blood and passion. Hannibal Lecter (the main character of the novel) is quite passionate about what he does, he also causes anger and confusion in others, as well as sheds a lot of other people's blood. The black on red text in blood and easy to read so one would be able to spot it easily in a bookstore.
