As expected, this highlights some of the more refined and detailed works from one of my favorite artists.
PRO: Lots of images, one on each page. This is why you buy the book.
CON: My copy feels like it was printed on near-newsprint paper that was cut with a dull scissors around the edges. Fingerprints show up on the porous cover indefinitely. Some of the work was created in black and white, but is in the book against a field of unattractive blue (basic cyan?), and the registration is a little off as well. Ink seems to have transfered a bit to blank facing pages, creating even more of a newsprint feel.

This is certainly not a triumph of book design or physical quality, but I would still buy it, as I love Mike Giant's work and can now study his lines and motifs for hours.

If you are looking at this item you already know about Mike Giant & don't need to be told what his art looks like. Muerte like some Mike Giant books has images on one side of the page and the title on the other the images are the size of the whole page. No text just art. Like the Product states it has 96 pages and the dimensions are 9.3in. X 6.6 in. Soft Cover.

I found this book perfect for what I had in mind . I was searching for some inspiration , fresh ideas and Mike Giants book "Muerte" did it . I went a different direction than I had intended to start with but I'm glad I did. This book broadened my view and I hope it will for others , whether it a new board design or tattoo flash.
