Amazon has cover art for Patricia McKillip's Od Magic.

I love those covers. If I'm remembering right, I bought Song for the Basilisk in hardcover on the strength of the cover art, and the daintiness of the format, before I'd even read any of McKillip's other works.


Let's see: this one has a woman holding a mask and reclining on a crescent moon; a man's head blindfolded with stars; a dragon; a flying horse; what looks like a wagon train in the background. I speculate wildly that the book might involve a travelling theatre company. I also hear the faint chiming of bells attached to the Cygnet duology -- probably it's the wagons, and the emphasis on the night sky, that are making me think of that.



Still, alas, no art for Cherryh's Destroyer or Bujold's Hallowed Hunt, though thanks to [livejournal.com profile] kate_nepveu's recent post I have an idea what the latter looks like.
