If you haven't yet read Mark Chadbourn, here's some added incentive.
His novel The Silver Skull (Swords of Albion) appeared in the Best of the Year lists of Locus magazine critic Paul Witcover, SteveReads, Fantasy Book Critic Cindy’s best of 2009 list, and Fantasyliterature.com.

Over on Tor.com, a big post talking with Mark Chadbourn and John Picacio about Mark's Age of Misrule series and the process that went into creating the new covers.
