Over 100 artworks and insightful commentary show the influences behind this artist who has done covers for--among others--Anne McCaffrey, Issac Asimov, Piers Anthony, Madeleine L'Engle, Samuel, R. Delaney, and even National Lampoon!

5.0 out of 5 stars Vivid colors, minute details in fairy-tale scenes, August 15, 2001
By "aioa" (Stockholm, Sweden) - See all my reviews
...continuing from my review title: not just fairy-tale scenes, but most of Rowena's art has a magical touch, lavishly detailed.

Rowena's fantasy world is like the colors of her paintings: rich, vivid and beautiful. A harmonious and sometimes even light-hearted approach is always present even in the face of danger. It seems that this talented artist believes in the victory of good over evil, which her high quality work is a testimony of.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Artwork Never disappointed me, November 26, 2000
By A Customer
I have been a fan of Rowena for a few years now. Found her artwork on the internet. When I saw this book I had to have it and was not disappointed in the quality of her work. I'm not a big fan of the stories however but I will put up with them for the sake of the artwork. I perfer using my imagination to interpertate her artwork. I would recomend this book for anyone who loves fantasy art because it dosent' disappoint the fantasy fan. I could not ask for more except for more artwork in the books.
