I'm used to hardcover books costing X2-X3 times than softcover books, simply due by the virtue of being hardcover, while in fact being similar quality/size otherwise.
So expected this book to be "average sized".
But the book is simply HUGE.
It has excellent quality pages, with amazing art on them (we'll get to that later...)
It's very sturdy, and feels well made.
Looks like the huge art books you see sold in stores (for X2-X3 times the price)
The content is a real pleasure for any Fallout fan.
It features some behind the scenes concept art for the game.
Absolutely stunning promotional art (you can see in the photos I attached).
And even all the small art pieces, like posters and magazine covers, found in Fallout 4.
So it's both and amazing book to enjoy, and an excellent value-for-money for what you're getting!

Three things in particular to note:
First, the detail is excellent. I particularly enjoyed going over some of the pages with a magnifying glass to see all the little intricate details of things like costumes, weapons, and robots, and seeing details that could never be included in the game without ballooning the already massive file sizes to something impossible to load.
Second, particularly in the World chapter, the book has a real Star Wars feel. In particular, the concept art for makeshift shelters made from the wreckage of prewar Fallout society is conceptually very similar to Mos Eisley construction from old ship parts. Some of the costume design and weapons seem similar, more so in the concept art than even in the game itself, between Fallout and Star Wars. That probably isn't entirely coincidental, considering that both Fallout and Star Wars take inspiration from some of the same sources, particularly their similarities in the Art Deco stylings of the movie Metropolis by Fritz Lang.
Third, the personality of the artists come through in the descriptions. It is obvious from their descriptions despite knowledge that many of their detailed brainstorms and concept art wouldn't make it into the final game that they were having fun just making them. The artists give detailed descriptions about how they took inspiration from several sources without copying them outright. Also, they wanted to create a game with a homogenized art structure while also having room to go off the walls a little. Overall, their joy in their work is contagious, and it's as much a joy to read about their creation of the artwork as it is to look at the artwork itself.
$20-$50 might seem steep to buy a book, but this is one book that is worth your money.
Definitely worth the price. Seeing the development and ideas that went into the game was enjoyable and enlightening. The book reminds me that games require so, so much work and creativity. I suggest that, if you're a fan of the game, buy it. If you aren't, but enjoy art and the creative process, buy it anyway.
It has sketches and all the good behind the scenes concept stuff you would expect from a high quality art book! Definitely recommend for fans of the games, a perfect addition to anyone's art book collection as well.
Note: when I opened the package, I noticed the plastic wrapping was a little torn open already and the corners of a few pages were folded/pushed in. Something to keep in mind for anyone who likes keeping their books in perfect condition.
