Wow, these are really cool covers. :) Maybe they'll come out like this in Polish as well. Kind of hoping for a C.S.Lewis boom im the book market after the release of the Narnia movie(s?). (comming out Jan 6'th in Poland). :) Then I'll be able to get THS at some reasonable price hopefully - for now it is rare and EXPENSIVE here. ;)

IT'S SNOWING! ;) Ah, I haven't been here fo ra looong time.

Ah, true about Mr Bultitude. Didn't think of that. Haha, they'll be surprised. I like the Perelandra cover most best as well.

In Polish it is called the 'interplanetary trilogy' (using the Polish equivalents for the words of course ;) )

Yes they are from the U.K amazon website which is why I am so adamant about finding them in the states. I am pretty sure they are soft cover and hardcover as most of the signature collection has been offered that way. I would certainly be all for the soft covers, as I have other signature editions and they are very well made.

I can't decide on a favorite . . they are all great . . .the depiction of Malacandra on the OOTSP cover is much better than the Kinuko Craft illustration on the American editions.

Merry Christmas!

Space Triolgy Cover Illustrations

Postby maschenb » December 29th, 2005, 8:26 pm

Does anyone know where I can find illustrations jpegs or prints of the Kinuko Craft covers for the SPace Trilogy . . .without the titles on them . . . basically the original illustrations?

Thanks for the help.

Also a heads up on the new covers for the Space Trilogy . . . . it seems they will be available in the UnitedStates in a few months from amazon.com.

I think you're out of luck getting that legally. You might want to read on her website.
Rat! he found breath to whisper, shaking. Are you afraid?
Afraid? murmured the Rat, his eyes shining with unutterable love.
Afraid! Of Him? O, never, never! And yet -- and yet -- O, Mole, I am afraid!
Then the two animals, crouching to the earth, bowed their heads and did worship.
