Spacewreck: Ghostships and Derelicts of Space

This book is the best book I have ever found on science fiction stories and pictures. I read this book while I was in the seventh and eight grade and looked for a decade afterwords before finding it. I also have his other two books and don't plan to part with them since these are extremally hard to find, even in antique stores. Would recomend all three or four books to all fans of Science Fiction. The art work is the best!!!!

Spacewreck : Ghostships and Derelicts

As per usual with Cowley's books, "Spacewreck" is impressively imaginative. The art is, for the most part, something that allows the imagination run wild and, as all art should, provokes a different response from each viewer. And, like his other books, the text is somewhat technical, but in a sense that it adds great depth to each visual piece. One neat thing that jumps out at the reader who is familiar with the other books in this collection, are the familiarity of certain spaceships. I.e. The reader may have seen one particular example in another context. All in all, not the best of the group of space-themed books by Cowley, but very creative nevertheless.
