Book Cover Art... An addiction
Hello.
As much as I love reading and writing books, I'm also a complete sucker for great cover art. My bookshelf is heaving with books of all genres, especially 60s and 70s sci-fi and horror, which I bought in part due to the cover art.
Here's a few fan art covers which Richard Ellis (@bookartguy) has shared on twitter - and that I'd like to share here as I think he's really caught what these two books are about. I'd buy these if they were in print, despite already having the books. Enjoy.

STORY: The Great Glorious Helmsman of the People!
The grey suited official ran down the corridor, clutching the piece of paper as if his life depended upon it (it did). At the end of the long corridor he handed it over to another grey suited official of slightly lower rank.
“They have decided,” he said panting.
“I look forward to their wise decision,” the second man replied.
“In the matter of the recently deceased Glorious Leader, it has been decided he was 71 percent good and 30 percent bad.”
They both peered at the paper.
“The Party is never wrong.”
“The Party is never wrong,” parroted the second man.
