I've added them all to the cover gallery on the website. Here are some of my favorites:
The Gabriel Hounds, original UK hardback, Hodder & Stoughton, 1967. I love the colors on this one.
Touch Not the Cat, UK hardback, Hodder & Stoughton, 1976
Thunder on the Right, US Fawcett paperback. I like this one, but why on earth is Jennifer Silver wearing a medieval costume??

Wow. Love that GABRIEL HOUNDS cover.
I agree, that Gabriel Hounds cover is lovely. And I'm sure that's the editon of Touch Not the Cat I first read from my high school library. I'll have to go over to the cover gallery now and look at the others.
Angie--I know! It's great. My only complaint is Charles is looking a little old-man-ish. And he is anything but old-man-ish. :)
Kerry--I'd never seen this version of TNtC -- I like the mosaic.
This is the only Gabriel Hounds tag on the blog, so I am just randomly commenting here. I re-read GH for the first time in a while and I have seriously underrated it. Great plot, great villains. The description of being high on hashish without knowing it is so priceless. And the setting is a-mazing. Gabriel Hounds, like so many of her books, would make SUCH a wonderful movie. I wonder if the Hayley Mills-ized Moonspinners put her off forever. I would kill to see movies of Gabriel Hounds, Nine Coaches Waiting, Airs Above the Ground and MOST of all, Ivy Tree.
