Book covers are critical to book sales. There are 3 main ways to get a good covers these days...
1) High Quality Premade covers. These are usually in the $40-$100 range for good ones.
2) Custom Manipulated Photo/art/3d render covers. These are usually in the $80-$200 range.
3) Full Original Custom Art - I have seen prices as high as $5000 dollars for covers, but there are some darn good artists out there in the $500-$1000
My Omnibus, The First Quartet has one from the #2 category. My first book Enemy of an Enemy has one form the #1 category. #3 is where I would like to be some day.
