pickIf I had a coffee table, this would definitely be on it. This book indicates that there are variations in Harris's style, not all pieces are the same carefully-coloured, impressionist brush-stroke versions of sci fi scenes shown to such great effect on John Scalzi's Old Man's War series book covers.
A large portion of the art in this collection is similar in style however, and surprise, all are my new favourites.

Robotswithpersonality 2/3 I'll admit, as opposed to the balance between text and image that was the 70s sci fi art book I read recently, this is majority image, and perhaps because it wasn't nifty trivia and history, I am of the subjective opinion that the few artist reflections, and the extended storytelling in the latter third don't add as much to the book. To each their own. 4d
Robotswithpersonality 3/3 If you get a chance, at least take a flip through to appreciate that sci fi cover art doesn't have to bow to the prominent 'dark, sharp, cold' aesthetic. 4d
