Above is the cover from the edition that I own myself.
Below is my version, which I feel more accurately captures the themes in the book.
Snow Crash by Neal Stephenson is a cyberpunk novel that takes the reader through worlds in both cyberspace and meatspace. I designed my cover to emphasize the digital feel of the novel and give it a strong visual pull.
I selected these specific colors because they draw attention to the book, even when just the spine is showing.
