Book Description

October 1, 2000
“Bob Eggleton’s illustrations can speak for themselves—eloquently and elegantly.”—Robert Bloch. “A four time Hugo winner, Eggleton makes highly detailed and vibrant artwork for book covers of such prominent authors as Greg Bear, Isaac Asimov and Arthur C. Clarke. To complement the more than 100 pages of colorful illustrations, a comprehensive interview between Suckling and Eggleton provides snippets about the painter’s background and techniques.” —Publishers Weekly.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant fantasy artwork., May 15, 2005
By 
This review is from: Alien Horizons: The Fantastic Art of Bob Eggleton (Paperback)
Bob Eggleton's artwork not only shows what an amazingly gifted artist he is but also demonstrates a breathtaking imagination. As the title of the book indicates, this is a book featuring paintings of alien landscapes, wonderful spacecraft and alien beings. It is hard to believe such detail has come purely from imagination and that these are not something the artist has seen in reality. With vibrant colours and perfection in even the minutest details these are pictures that a reader will want to look at time and time again. This is a wonderful book not only for fans of science fiction and fantasy but also for anyone who appreciates art.
