Three covers for the same book -- three very different interpretations of the central character, Naeri the earth witch.
This is the cover of the original 1989 edition of The Sarsen Witch.

Below is the Timothy Lantz cover for the 2008 Juno Books edition -- a striking and I feel an accurate depiction of a character who is "spare and strong and
hardy as the gorse".
You can find reviews of The Sarsen Witch and an excerpt from the book on the Juno website.

I like Naeri in picture 2 (as you say, more like the character in the book) but I prefer the trilithon background of three, which gives people a better idea of the setting. (Unfortunately not that many people know what a sarsen is!)
All the best

Or how to spell sarsen! They seem to confuse it with "Saracen". That would be a whole different novel!
