Biggest Bargain Going--and Best

First of all: a disclaimer. I edited one of the three books incorporated in this single volume as well as an overall introduction. But I'm not shilling for the book--I don't have to. Included in this one volume are "Science Fiction of the 20th Century," "Horror of the 20th Century," and "Fantasy of the 20th Century." An illustrative history of the three genres--in one volume. Bought separately, they would have run you $... The same plates were used in this volume, the same paper--in many cases, the reproduction is even better than in the original volumes. NOT available in most bookstores. This is probably the biggest, single, hardbound volume of 4-color illustrations ever published in the United States. If you looked at the single books in the series and passed because of price, take a look at this one. Not just for the pretty pictures--the written historical sumamries are also worth the price. End of commercial--nobody's paying me to write this and any royalties as such have been prepaid. Fellow editor/authors Robert Weinberg and Randy Broecker know their stuff. Reason for this screed: I'm damned proud of the book.

DEFINITIVE & THRILLING

If you have ever had even the slightest interest in Science Fiction, Fantasy or Horror art, this book is the best choice. Rather than tossing out the same old trite examples, the authors have collected an astounding number of the very best covers and illustrations from pulps, novels and posters - all from the finest names in the business. Printed on high-quality gloss paper, every page is a treat for the eyes and a confirmation that pulp art holds an important place in American popular culture. All of the best authors are represented, the best artwork, and fantastic commentary. A perfect gift for a Sci-fi/Fantasy/Horror fan - or for yourself! You won't be sorry for the price: The exceptional quality of the printing, the vibrant colors, and just the delightful heft of a book so filled with great pop art will be worth every penny.
