I got the Tor winter catalogue yesterday and there is a b&w reproduction
of the next book's cover in it. For Feb. A huge odd-but-benign looking
(eyes too close together; actually he looks like a lot of elderly
character actors) old guy wearing something like a medieval cap (blunt
soft point falling sloppily toward the forehead) holds in his hand a
tiny Horn--is it only Horn or is Horn holding someone else--Babbie?
Fuzzy graphics make it hard for me to tell--perhaps it is just Horn
alone. Above but close, Oreb is soaring.
