The Illustrated Star Wars Universe (1995)

I have a look through this hardcover artwork written by Kevin Anderson and featuring concept artwork for the star wars films by legendary concept artist Ralph McQuarrie. I also compare this version of the book with the almost identical paperback edition which was released around the same time in 1995 by Bantam Press. Buy this book at amazon https://amzn.to/3DUK2zZ

Middle-earth: From Script to Screen: Building the World of The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit (2017)

Here is my review of the Middle-Earth From Script to Screen hardcover book by Harper Collins. This huge book covers the making of all Tolkien inspired films by Peter Jackson including the 3 Hobbit films and the 3 Lord of the Rings films. It’s a VERY comprehensive reference book (it weighs nearly 3.5kg). I delve inside it and find out what the book has to offer.
