As you mention in the piece, Harvill did a bunch of his books in the 1990s. Last time he was reissued here was with Pushkin Vertigo in 2015-16, in these designs which I loved but booksellers hated.

For World Book Day. The book that started it all for me; that introduced me to the fantasy genre, which love led me into a career in publishing. Bought for me by my brother when I was ten and still with me half a century later.
