I love all the shapes and designs on the cover. The colors are awesome too. I will need to start with the first book in this series though before I read this one. Thanks for the review.

What do you think of the cover and synopsis?- I love it!
-Christopher Kyle
The cover looks beautiful, the plot intriguing. Trees are very important and I like that they seem to be the main focus in this novel.
I thought that the cover was very nice and I liked the cool tones that it uses. The synopsis could use a little more meat, though.
Cover and Sypnosis looks interesting
Love the cover as well as the synopses.
Very cool cover!
While the cover is vibrant, I feel when paired up to other books in this genre, it lacks the quality of professional design. I would tone down the transparent fog in the foreground as it makes the 2 profiles appear squashed in this zone of total darkness, something obviously not viable due to the overall brightness of the background and foreground. If using profiles instead of actual people, the lighting needs to be consistent with the foreground also being pitch black. I would also differentiate the font colors and style from that of the cover, making it POP. These are both easy fixes that would infuse a higher quality of visual awareness as well as professionalism provided by big name publishers and cover designers.
The synopsis provides readers with an interesting peak into the premise of the book. Having not read the prior book, I am not sure whom he was escaping from as it doesn’t imply he was a prisoner, but just a tree builder. How does one end up amongst a mutinous crew? Does he know them? Is Alpha a pirate with this crew? And what have they sacrificed? I think providing readers with a bit deeper synopsis would really hook readers into this who otherwise might not pick it up on first glance!
Nice cover; interesting book
the cover is gorgeous, not what i was expecting when i read the synopsis a few months ago. Glad it doesn’t feature a random female model.
It’s not what I expected. When I first heard about The Rift in the first book it was described to be a hot wasteland with molten lava everywhere so I figured the cover would have the same color scheme as Rootless. The synopsis was such a tease and I can’t wait to read it! You’re awesome Chris!!!
The cover is gorgeous, I love looking at book covers because they always tell a story of their own.
Well I already (and LOVED) Rootless so I know I’m love Rift! 😀
The book sounds amazing!! But cover is alright!:):D
The plot sounds intriguing and the cover looks beautiful.
I think that the cover is very cool, I love the colors and the silhouettes! The book sounds very interesting too!
I really like this book cover, it’s details are well done!
I think the cover is quite beautiful, I love the color scheme most of all. The synopsis is different, I think I may enjoy the book. Sadly, the idea of a shortage of trees seems like one that could be real in a future world.
