Reviews

[Grantcorp · Rating 3 out of 5]

Calling this title a book would be somewhat misleading, since all it contains is a two page foreword followed by ten huge poster-like paintings of spaceships in the typical Foss style. What it does right is to display the awesome artwork in a respectable size -by comparison the same paintings look like thumbnails in other books. What is missing though, is a few words about the paintings, their titles and year of publication.
