Many people have commented on how much they like the Gollancz covers of
Moon Over Soho and
Rivers of London. The element that I think gives the covers their unique look is the work of artist Stephen Walter. His master work The Island - a psychogeographical redrawing of Greater London as an Island - suits the tone and the content of the books perfectly.
It also means that as long I keep stories with the boundaries of the city I love then I never have to worry about cover design again. Result!
Stephen Walter has a website
here and feature in the British Library's online exhibition
here.
