A gritty, colored pencil illustration of an alien fruit with an eye, its roots forming the title 'TERRARIUM' with a tiny house.

Novel cover. In the top third, a single strange alien fruit lies on an off-white background, rough and textured like the page of a book. It’s recognizably plant-like, but subtly wrong: stamens sprouting from leaves, ugly and asymmetrical, coppery sheen, a subtle eye embedded in its skin. In the bottom two thirds, the roots of the plant spread like a spiderweb through soil, profile view. Subtle specks of alien iridescence in the brown soil. Toward the bottom, the roots twist and conjoin to form the title, "TERRARiUM" -- stylized in all-caps except for the letter "i". The dot of the "i" should resemble a tiny version of a farmhouse, made out of twisting roots. 2D art style that looks like colored pencil and charcoal, gritty and dirty. See more
