This is an early collection of Rowena Morrill's work. She had yet to win the British Fantasy Award for her illustrations. In some ways her depiction of the human form remind me of Boris Vallejo. She really excels in depicting textures. The clothes that she paints look like fabric you want to touch to see if it is as soft and silky as it appears. There is a reason I have kept this book for over 30 years -- I love it. ( )
