Implausible Ingredients And How To Harvest Them - Stuart Lee

I designed this cover for a short story I wrote. The story is inspired by the Three Witches scene in Shakespeare’s Macbeth, where the witches are casting a spell while chanting “Eye of newt, and toe of frog…” etc.

The story is from the point of view of a newt called Newton Isaacs III and his forest friends Joss Feratu, 'Lord' Jack Natty and Harry Barghest Jr. It’s like a Beatrix Potter tale that ventured into the dark forest of the Brothers Grimm. The animals have had enough of their body parts being harvested by humans, and set out to get their revenge.
