Where did you get the painting on the book cover?I came across the painting by sheer luck while googling, looking for a suitable illustration. The fantastic painting was done by an Irish artist called Eolaí gan Fhéile. You can see and buy his work at http://bicyclistic.com. Huge thanks to Eolaí gan Fhéile for generously granting permission to use his piece.
Thanks are also due to Jon Bond for his great cover design work.
