The cover of The Wisdom of Crowds by Joe Abercrombie, featuring a green flag with a golden lion on it amidst a fiery battle scene. Joe Abercrombie's frankly unimpressive signature on the title page of the book. It looks like 'Jull', perhaps a portmanteau of Jethro and Tull, and a tribute to the band. The spine of the book at a slightly diagonal angle. There's a golden lion on that as well. The inside front flap of the dust jacket which provides a synopsis of the book, that I can't be arsed to type out. Brock and Savine are having some kind of disagreement about the way things should be going or something.

Two nice and shiny hardback Dan Dare Books, one featuring Dan Dare and the other featuring The Mekon. The cover of a Dan Dare book, Voyage to Venus part 1, featuring Dan grinning in his green uniform against a background of yellow rocket ships. The cover of Dan Dare: Voyage to Venus featuring The Mekon looking quite menacing. The two Dan Dare books again, stood up side by side on horrowfide's tatty living room table.

The cover of The Amazing Journey: How Newcastle United Conquered Europe by Matthew Watson-Broughton, featuring János Göröcs and Bobby Moncur shaking hands in front of the referee and linesmen. The back cover of the aforementioned book, which reads as follows: THE MIGHTY WYN'S impact on Dutch Total Football; how opposing players started a fire inside St James' Park during a game; and how Newcastle United handed Europe's best team a remarkable cup-final thrashing.
