The Folio Society has released a new cloth-bound edition of Robert Holdstock’s Mythago Wood, illustrated by John Howe. The publisher dates the 320-page edition October 13 and lists a £70 UK price. Howe’s contribution includes a frontispiece, five full-page colour illustrations and thirty-nine integrated black-and-white

drawings, along with a foreword discussing his connection with the novel. Black and brown printing, illustrated endpapers and a gilded top edge complete the production. Holdstock’s fantasy follows Stephen Huxley back to his family home after the Second World War, where his father’s research points towards the mythic

beings of Ryhope Wood. This release brings Howe’s existing illustrated treatment into a new cloth edition, following Folio’s earlier limited edition. Read the official source. Image: John Howe / The Folio Society; official 2026 cloth-edition photograph.
