Communities clump into a big hex and the whole thing looks like a star map
What are blogs anyway but stars in the sky?

I have said before and will say again that it is such a loss that we no longer get covers of this caliber for fantasy books.
This art is by Jean-Léon Huens. These covers are for the Chronicles of Prydain by Lloyd Alexander. They lit my imagination on fire as a kid.
