Bibliomancer’s Art Direction: You spilled your whiskey all over the cover art! No time to redo it. Just sponge it off and get it out the door. It has to be at the printer’s today.

Simon W Comments: Low budget is an overstatement on this one. Four photos and a bit of fiddling with exposures. Looks like a 4th form art project done by someone studying science.
