I have said before and will say again that it is such a loss that we no longer get covers of this caliber for fantasy books. This art is by Jean-Léon Huens. These covers are for the Chronicles of Prydain by Lloyd Alexander. They lit my imagination on fire as a kid.

Everyone else in Trumps Republican party is a Hitler Stemlord that doesn’t consume art because it’s spiritually gay. Finding a person he can invite to the White House that’s seen Evita has to be heaven on earth to him
