[LNH] Cover Gallery #18i

The cover shows the gigantic stone form of the Sphinx rearing up
from its resting place on the Giza Plateau, preparing to swat the
Consultant (currently female, dressed in a sensible tweed skirt
and coat of subtly extraterrestrial cut). Locals and foreign
tourists alike flee in all directions.
The Sphinx snarls, "You trapped my wandering spirit in this hunk of
stone, little Time Baron, but I have prevailed! This is no longer
my prison: it is my body! Now DIE!"
Cover blurb: "A cosmic horror no longer bound! The marauding
return of the Sphinx!"

Authors notes: A second Dr Who pastiche that references the
_spaceQuest Raven_ #4 story. This version of the Consultant is
based on the Joanna Lumley incarnation of the Doctor from _The
Curse of Fatal Death_. The Sphinx-as-an-intangible-entity-trapped-
in-immobile-stone idea was pillaged from the _GURPS Monsters_ book.
