SQP continues to bring the latest stars in fantasy and erotic art to fans all over the world, the latest being the subject of their newest release, Claudio Aboy. This is the very first collection of Aboy's erotic art. Born in Argentina, Aboy got his start as a cartoonist but his eye for detail and beautiful women soon drove him into the field of fantasy art. Today, he works primarily as a freelance artist for publishers all over the world.

This book presents a diverse collection of his women, from futuristic, gun-toting butt-kickers to prehistoric warrior queens, with lingerie and bondage illustrations stirred in for good measure. In "Midnight Snack" we wee a buxom blonde in a torn, full body fishnet suit, chained to a wooden pole while a goblin-like creature delights in her helplessness...not to mention the wonderful view!

"Shoulder Mounted Mayhem" presents a topless hottie in camouflage thong and baseball cap with a rocket launcher resting on her shoulder and ready to do some series damage. "Bound to Please" is one of several bondage-themed illustrations in the book. This one features a woman in thigh-high leather boots and corset, bound tightly with cords and chains. "Invitation" is a fantastically photo-realistic rendering of Pam Anderson who is shown in lace bra and panties with one breast exposed.

Aboy also has several illustrations of everyone's favorite female blood-sucker Vampirella in the book. One called "Throne of Blood" finds the dark-haired vamp resting on a throne carved with demon heads. Another titled "Exposed" features a topless Vampirella dressed only in her trademark bat thong.

SQP has once again found a new star for fans of erotic fantasy and pin-up art to savor. This is a marvelous first collection from Aboy!

Reviewed by Tim Janson

First off, the cover of this book is probably the best piece of art in the book IMO, for the simple reason that it's the only piece besides the back cover that is in color. The rest of the book is black and white, even when it looks as if some of the art inside could have been painted in color. Some of the pieces featured in this book are little more than photo mish-mashes to make a scene, and some of those didn't really turn out well. If you really need an art fix, pick this up, but I think there are far better art books out there.

I agree with one of the other reviewers, the artwork is good enough but the cover picture oversells it--the rest of the book is just OK.
