Torchship Captain is the third book in Karl K. Gallagher’s Torchship Trilogy. He asked me to illustrate a specific scene in the book, where the captain of the title watches as an asteroid fitted with engines is steered into a nearby planet. I did the other two covers in the series also, and for each one put an image of the main character’s face on the top, looking in different directions. I wanted the third one to end up with her staring out at the viewer in a commanding way, reflecting her rise in status and rank.
