I'm really enjoying the new Earth Father's book, and I'm starting to think about covers. There are not many stock photos of octopus out there, and I want the covers to "match," so what do you think of this one?

I think it does the job, but maybe it's a little too much like the first cover? It should be clear when they are both on Amazon, etc. that they are different books. Maybe play around with the title placement?

Zoom up the planet. Zoom up the tentacles and put them in front of the planet.

It's really a little bit too similar to the cover of the first book. Putting the tentacles in front of the planet would work as Nanette Kerrison suggested, or curl them around the planet. Or you could put three smaller octopus in there. Like make Rick smaller or shift him a little bit more out of the picture and then put perhaps one of the children in the left down corner and the other two coming in from the right side. You could make them different sizes and play with their colouring. Another possibility would be that a human arm/hand coming from the opposite side of the alien and they hold hands/tentacle over the planet.
