Sounds like a magic-coloured jazz quartet of angels, but no, this was the set of covers for Neil Gaiman titles that I started last year and finished last week.

I confess to never having read any of his books before I got the job (always on the never ending ‘list’) but Neil Gaiman’s reputation precedes him. Massively prolific poet, writer of magical tales for adults, Doctor Who episodes, award-winning children’s author (Coraline), screen writer (Beowulf) and collaborator on some of the most famous graphic novels of all time (Sandman), this posed A Bit Of A Challenge, since there is such a huge archive of covers, interpretations, dramas, films and TV series of his work already in existence.

 

See all of the covers, as well and the story of their creation on my blog HERE.
