I’ve just discovered that this library has a copy of The Summer King by O. R. Melling. (It’s the sequel to The Hunter’s Moon. I talked about its cover art a while back.) As the cover art is just as beautiful as the art that appeared on The Hunter’s Moon, I had to share it with you all. Or, to put it another way: Oooo! Shiny! I hope that I have time to read this one very soon.

The Hunter’s Moon by O. R. Melling is the first in the Chronicles of Faerie series. I received my copy of the book for my birthday this last year. (I received The World of the Celts, Celtic Gods and Heroes, and The Celts: A Very Short Introduction at the same time. Sense a trend?) It’s a madcap rescue mission through an Ireland that is modern-day time-wise, but in which the old ones have not left. As you can see, I don’t just enjoy the story, I also love the cover art. The image of winged creatures dancing in front of a full moon really gives the reader an impression of what they will find within the book. At some point I will review this book, once I have had a chance to re-read it. For now, here is the cover art for you to enjoy.
