Thank you so much for making 30 Covers, 30 Days such a success as we end this second week of November. Today’s cover was created by Chip Wass, designer extraordinaire: <img src="http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_luifedJPjY1r0x68m.jpg"><strong> Les Contes de Fées Enchantées de Maître Chevalier</strong> by <a href="http://www.nanowrimo.org/en/participants/ryanna-coleman" rel="nofollow">Ryanna Coleman</a> From Cinderella to Thumbelina, with Snow White, Peter Pan and King Arthur in between, as well as many many other famous and popular fairy tales, this collection of retold fairy tales is darker than most. And with five new fairy tales that will delight the reader and a foreword and conclusion by chronicler Master Chevalier, Les Contes de Fées Enchantées de Maître Chevalier will be a timeless classic. <strong>Chip Wass</strong> has created characters, illustrations and logos for Disney, Nick at Nite, Cartoon Network, Target, The New York Times, Entertainment Weekly among others. He is currently writing and illustrating a novel for young readers. Visit <a href="http://www.chipwass.com" rel="nofollow">www.chipwass.com</a>.

Not quite what I would expect from "a darker retelling of fairy tales" though. Love the guy on top, who is partially cut off though.

I particularly like the cartoon cuteness of it combined with some of the creepier elements -- the crow, the bug with the big pointy tooth, the spider. Perfect for a collection of "darker than most" fairy tales. I would read the hell out of this.

Cartoon-like characters, if this is supposed to be a humourous story, would be appropriate, but I question the 'dark' side of the nature of the stories. That shade of green background, the pink, and the exaggerated lines of the raven and the waistline of a headless man, make this look VERY cartoonish. I think of fairy tales has having more of a classic feel to them. More depth and richness in the drawings, more dark colours and shading, less of the two-dimensional, slapped-on look.
