Hi all

Paul Haskell, who contributed to Project Aon with 16-colour scans of Gary Chalk's artwork from Books 1-8, asked me recently about Brian Williams' illustrations for the Legends of Lone Wolf series. Although we do not (yet?) have the rights to make Paul Barnett's novels available on our site, we do have permission from Brian Williams to make use of his illustrations, and his illustrations are conspicuously missing from the PDFs of the Legends series Barnett released in 2003. We decided to collaborate on a project to bring these illustrations together for Project Aon, and we think we're done.

This document contains all the interior artwork Brian Williams did for the Legends of Lone Wolf series, arranged chronologically by title. I have also added an Appendix to explain the differences between the original UK (Beaver/Red Fox) editions and the re-released PDF editions Paul Barnett released (i.e. book title and chapter title differences).

I think this falls within the aegis of Project Aon, especially since this artwork does not appear in Barnett's PDFs, so I can't see any legal issues with it, and it is a good way to bring this artwork together in one place to save it from potentially being lost.

Any thoughts/comments on the file or the legal situation would be most 
appreciated. Thanks.

For Sommerlund and the Kai!
