Customer Reviews

A good introduction to Michael Whelan's early work

No one doubts that Michael Whelan is one of the leading science fiction / fantasy artists. The ideas, execution and colours are all great, my only complain is that the paintings could have had a clearer look.

Get it while you still can

Michael Whelan's 'Wonderworks' is fantastic! If you're a fan of Sci-Fi and Fantasy art, your book collection is not complete without this one. The I've owned mine since the mid-80's and I still never tire at looking at the art work inside. The back stories he gives about some of the paintings are fascinating as well. The book is out of print now so get yours while you can still find it!
