Here
I display all that I deem most worthy of the term “art.” Sweet poetry, pretty
pictures, and enchanting stories will all be found here, once the dust of
building settles.
This is a children’s story, so (needless to say, but I’ll say it anyway) I thoroughly enjoyed it. The artwork throughout is just like what you see on the cover – wonderful. I look forward to reading it to my daughter, in the not-so-distant future.
I
haven’t read this one yet; I’m saving some good stuff for later. Unread Zelazny
is in limited supply, after all. These two works came as a boxed set; I
couldn’t find them individually, so I ordered a second set as reading copies.
Here
are the front and back covers of my reading copy of The Last Defender of
Camelot, a graphic adaptation of Roger’s short story, drawn by Jim Zimmerman.
It’s a fun read, and always brings back memories. Look in Things of
Incalculable Worth to find out why.
Of
all the copies of the Amber books in my collection, this one is the prettiest.
It is also the most convenient, having all ten installments between two covers.
It is too bad that it had to be a trade paperback. As such, there’s no way I’m
carrying it with me anywhere as a reading copy. It would get mangled. And if
I’m at home, then I don’t need the convenience of all the books in one volume.
They’re right there on the bookshelf, anyway. It was a great idea, this book,
and they went the extra mile to commission a great cover. Wish they had bound
it differently…
