I just got sent the first version of the Dave McKean cover of the Harper edition of The Graveyard Book.
A book that is now three weeks late, and inside of which I'm somewhere hacking my way through the jungle of Chapter Seven.
There's nothing like being sent a book cover for the book you're currently writing to concentrate the mind wonderfully.
Click on it to see it larger. The spectral figures will be done in varnish, like the original hardback of Coraline...
