Good Show Sir comments:

Got a black magic novel
Got a black magic novel
I’ve got a black magic novel
Got me so drunk I can’t read
That it’s black magic novel
And the cover art will make your eyes bleed

Ann Maxwell’s Dancer Trilogy

16 Comments »

Now, Dasher! now, Dancer! now, Prancer and Vixen!Click for larger image

Zoom in to further enjoy Fire Dancer, Dancer’s Luck, and Dancer’s Illusion!

Good Show Sir Comments: One of our little birds sent us a link to the Smart Bitches Trashy Books blog from a few years past, wallowing in the glory of terrible Ann Maxwell book covers. We’ve skewered a few in the past such as this one, and this one. This Signet series of “Dancer Series” covers has us doffing out hat and saying Good Show Sir! Good show, indeed.

Sadly, all three covers are by a graduate of the Unknown Artist Institute, as per isfdb.org.
