Science Fiction and Fantasy Novels And Illustrations?

I have been looking around for novels of science fiction and fantasy that have been illustrated on almost evey page - illustrations that go with the story not for boarders. I have seen some that have an illustration (painting) at the beginning of each chapter. I would like to see if this combination of words and images can be used for some of my writings.
TIA

His Dark Materials by P. Pullman is an example, with each chapter starting with a pictogramme, but not in the first book, if I remember well.

Another good candidate would be the Harlan Ellison/Jacek Yerka collaboration, Mindfields.

This is late, and these are childrens books really, but Paul Stewart and Chris Riddell The Edge Chronicles have beautiful illustrations, and Phillip Reeve's Larklight and Starcross have wonderful psuedo-victorian ones.
