Paintings of The Land...

Post by deven »

Nearly twenty years ago, when I was first immersed in The Land, a girl I was crazy about pulled me into the library to show me a book full of gorgeous illustrations covering a variety of fantasy writers. I remember there were several outstanding paintings of The Land--paintings that were not book covers but an artist's conception of several events or scenes from the Covenant books. Does ANYONE have any idea what that book might have been? I have tried for years to bring any clue back to mind, but all my searches have been so far fruitless.

Hail Deven, welcome to the Watch :D

The book you are referring too is probably "Realms of Fantasy". On the cover is a brilliant depiction of Moorcock's Melnibone. There are illustrations of Andelain, Foul's Creche, Coercri and Kevin's Watch from the Chrons. There are also illustrations from Earthsea, Middle-Earth, Ghromeghast, The Lost World, Atlantis, Mars and Urth. I got my copy years ago from the SFBC, but you may be able to find it on E-Bay or possibly Amazon, B&N, etc...

:hearts:
And I believe in you
altho you never asked me too
I will remember you
and what life put you thru.


~fly fly little wing, fly where only angels sing~

~this world was never meant for one as beautiful as you~

...for then I could fly away and be at rest. Sweet rest, Mom. We all love and miss you.
