While the product description claims the book features "leading fantasy artists and rising stars," the bulk of the works here are by the latter. Comparable work is easily found all over the internet, which is where I'm guessing the author found it, himself. The nice thing for him: unknown artists come cheap, if not free. The nice thing for the artists: obviously, exposure. What this means for the reader: pass, or pick it up cheap used, here on Amazon.

This book while packaged very attractively, just does not measure up to the count. Most of these are unknown artists and in the infancy of their careers, the occasional exception might be Tony DeTerlizi (?). Save your money, look elsewhere or get it really cheap, not an important volume, one can do without this in their collection.

The work in this book of illustrations are absolutely amazing. The imaginations of these artists are beyond all boundaries.

I found the art work in this book mind boggling. These pictures stretch the
imagination to the limit and send the mind off in all sorts of directions
and suggests many possibilities.

I BOUGHT IT AS A GIFT FOR MY BEAU AND I WENT THROUGH IT FIRST I REALLY ENJOY THIS TYPE OF ART SO I FOUND IT MOST SATISFIYING.
