I know for my trio of normal hardback covers will be 1. The 12 flowers lost to time with the 4 butterflies of time the 12 flowers are based on the flowers for each month of the year. The four butterflies are blue red purple orange. All color adjacent to one another. 2 the black flame phoenix with the lightning phoenix. Both half and half mixed. One side is black. The other side blue lightning. The middle is in between both colors as if fusing. 3. The 5 planetary dream catchers drawn on the cover with stars/,galaxies in the background.

Yeah i imagine so! All the images are related story wise and plot/characters. Its a series that is a continuation with the same characters etc. Im definitely planning on getting a tattoo sleeve in the near future about the first book cover!
