Dust Jacket and interior illustrations by Charles de Lint
The Hour Before Dawn is a very special gathering of stories set in Newford, the city where magic and the mundane interact. It includes three never-before-collected tales, one of which is making its first appearance anywhere:
- "The Hour Before Dawn"
- "That Was Radio Clash"
- "The Butter Sprit's Tithe"
That's not all. Hour is also the first book to be illustrated by Charles de Lint himself. In addition to the full-color cover, Charles has created a full-page black and white illustration for each story. The Limited and Lettered Editions will contain an extra, full-color frontispiece, not appearing anywhere else.
