Stephanie Tiner asked Simon Williams:

Some of your novels have very similar cover artworks, are they in the same series or are all of your books stand alones?

Simon Williams Hi Stephanie,

Yes, the books with the "symbol" covers are all part of my five-book Aona series, which I completed earlier this year. I deliberately went for a more stark, abstract feel for the covers as the books are certainly not "traditional" fantasy and I think my readers often prefer to have their own ideas about what a certain area or character should look like- also they fit in with the more sci-fi elements of the series.

My YA fantasy / sci-fi "Summer's Dark Waters" is however illustrated throughout, by Ankolie (www.ankolie.com) who managed to visualise my ideas for the illustrations so perfectly it was scary!
