Cover image by Miles Nelson, for his The Cedar & The Sapphire. On a white background, two animals sit facing away from the viewer between grass and yellow flowers. On the left is a Lutra (like an otter) with blue fur dappled with light grey speckles. On the right is an Ailura (like a red panda) with a brown coat and a bushy tail ringed with white stripes. The two animals are snuggled together, tails intertwined.

Delighted to reveal the cover of Fourth Seed, the 4th book in Terry Jackman’s Worlds Apart Collective, out 3 Apr 2026. Welcome to Demmos, a far-flung NewEarth colony. A source of basic food-grain for the homeworld. The colonists fall out with NewEarth, are abandoned, pleased to be independent. But…

Cover image of Fourth Seed, book 4 in Terry Jackman’s Worlds Apart collective, by Alison Buck and Space Fabricator. Against a starry background, a planet fills most of the right hand side of the image. It is an earth-like planet, with oceans, green and brown areas of land and cloud formations in places. In orbit above the planet is a huge spaceship, in menacing red, with a single gold stripe across the top. It appears to be comprised of large flat spaceship, with a more dome-like second craft nestled into the dimpled top. the title is at the top of the image in white stylised capital letters, and the author’s name is at the bottom of the image in the same style of letters.

We are excited to be able to reveal the cover of The fall of Faerie by Rebecca Hall, the first book in The Avalon Revolution. This new fantasy series is set on the misty isle of Avalon, but in the present not in the days of yore. Avalon is now home to humans, fae, and immortals from many pantheons.

Cover image by Alison Buck for The Fall of Faerie by Rebecca Hall, the first book in The Avalon Revolution series. The cover depicts a misty road, in a town, although no buildings can be seen through the mist, a starry sky is just visible above the mist. Wlaking out of the mist towards the viewer is a young girl perhaps aged 10 or 11, wearing fluffy white rabbit slippers, blue-green pyjamas emblazoned with rabbit faces, and clutching a stuufed rabbit toy. She has black hair hanging down in two plaits, one either side of her face. Her eyes are mysteriously not visible. Behind her, just discernable in the mist is a bus that has crashed into a lamp-post and a cyclist who has fallen off his bicycle, which is lying on the ground. At the top of the cover the words The Avalon Revolution are in white, with the title The Fall of Faerie below in larger white letters. At the bottom of the cover the name REBECCA HALL is written in golden letters.

For those of you in the contiguous US, there’s a competition to win a copy of The Devil’s Halo by Rhys Hughes on a subreddit devoted to Weird Literature. www.reddit.com/r/WeirdLit/c... Check it out.

The cover of The Devil’s Halo by Rhys Hughes was designed by Alison Buck. It consists of tessellations of a monochrome seated demon figure with a halo. The demon in the centre of the cover has a halo which is coloured gold. The artwork is very much an homage to M.C. Escher who produced many tessellated images.

Cover image of Body and Soul by Andrew Hook, artwork and cover design by Alex Storer. Two small silhouetted figures (one male and the other female) are in the foreground standing on grass at the edge of what is obviously the ruins of a city. Most of the buildings are in ruins and the walls are covered in greenery. Water is running through the middle of the image (from front to back) as if a river has invaded the city streets. The sky is orange with a few dark clouds, but there is a bright light in the sky which is clearly the sun emerging from behind one of the clouds. To the right the words BODY AND SOUL are written up the side of the image, as is ANDREW HOOK.
