The Dark Paths of the World -- Cover Concept

Here's the rough front-back cover concepts  for The Dark Paths of the World, the sequel to The Winds of Heaven and Earth.

Yeah, yeah; I know we're a long way out--DPW just topped 45,000 words, so I'm not even a third of the way through the first draft, but it's starting to pick up steam and I'm pleased at the way the story's turning out.

Thoughts?
