The novelization of George A. Romero’s zombie horror classic Dawn of the Dead – the sequel to Night of the Living Dead – was co-written by Susanna Sparrow and first published by St. Martin’s Press in 1978.

Interestingly, jacket designer Paul Bruner used Davison Art Nouveau with the same alternates as on the covers of Frank Herbert’s Dune, as extensively detailed in The Mystery of the Dune Font here on Fonts In Use.
