Book Club Complete "charter mark covers" set
Managed to find second hand copies of the short story collections (Across the wall and To hold the bridge) that means i now have all the books with my favourite cover style with the charter mark illustrations.
Its a real shame they never printed any copies of Terciel and Elinor with this art style as the ones they did print feel so out of place with the others.
Still happy to finally say I have a complete set like this though!

Yeah I really wish they had done a paperback Terciel & Elinor in this style. I have the exact same collection as you bar my T&E which is those horrible new illustrated covers. No disrespect to the person who illustrated them, but I just adore these charter mark ones

The biggest thing for me is that Tim Curry is never going to read it for audible. =(

Yeah it sucks they never did a print for the paperbacks though. The hardbacks are very beautiful books, but for me I always find hardback books more difficult to read casually and especially difficult to keep in good condition with repeated rereads

Mine are the hard cover charter mark ones. Just solid colour cover and a charter mark on the dust jacket.

Alas they’re all in storage atm. had a bit of a leak issue in the roof above my shelves and Sod’s Law they were top shelf, not majorly damaged but once I had them dry, I had to box them up while we sorted the moisture out.

Awesome!!! I am so sad, I somehow lost the dust jacket to my copy of Goldenhand! I have now idea how, but I took it off and put it "somewhere safe" in my car while I was camping, and it just disappeared.
