Wow, this brought back some odd memories. I never read Mythago Wood, despite meaning to for many years; I'd stumbled across Robert when I read In the Valley of the Statues, which had that brilliant cover. I was almost certainly too young to get much from it, I could only have been about 13. But I certainly remember liking it!

I see John Langan is in the contents list there for the new book – I think The Fisherman might be one of my favourite books of recent years. Dude can write.

Thanks, Jon. Yes John Langan is a terrific writer and it's cool to be in his company, along with all the others. There were a lot of great covers on books until the late 90s when paying artists to paint/design pieces of art for them became rare.
