The Josh Kirby cover for Terry Pratchett's "Hogfather" depicts a vibrant, slightly whimsical scene. The Hogfather, dressed in a red and white suit like Santa, is seen in the center of the illustration, driving his sleigh, which is pulled by enormous piggies, across a snowy night with stars so bright
