Why Have I Never Seen This Before? The Illearth War (SFBC)
You have your curly-haired Haruchai in the short-shorts robe.
You have your nostril-faced ur-vile, riding a kresh. And would he be weilding a knife and an iron jerrid?
You have your Vortex of Trepidation, I presume.
Is that a Giant-Raver emerging from it?

OK, I didn't even see the prone body until now. Don't know how I missed that.wayfriend wrote:Possibly. But the blasted trees seem to suggest the Southron Wastes, not a lush, dense forest. And the prone body suggests a Bloodguard defending a fallen Troy. (Although it did not actually happen that way.) And then there's the black pillar of ... something.

Hmm...
It seems I misinterpreted. This is a cover of a catalog.Written by Stephen R. Donaldson, The Illearth War stands as a powerful tale of adventure and imagination. This book was part of the trilogy, The Chronicles of Thomas Covenant, the Unbeliever. The Illearth War was featured on the cover of SFBC’s November 1977 catalog. [link]
