Imi place...

Subterranean Press/Bloomsbury Adult edition - The Graveyard Book

Gene Wolfe - An Evil Guest part 2

Noua coperta de la An Evil Guest.

Stephan Martinere - Kay Kenyon, City Without End

O coperta superba semnata de Martiniere pentru a treia carte din seria "Entire and the Rose".
Daca scoate cineva seria asta in Romania si nu pastreaza copertele originale e cel putin imbecil.
