Testament: The Life and Art of Frank Frazetta

6 reviews
Frank Frazetta

Underwood Books, 2008

Odds & Ends Collection, "Icon" & "Legacy" Better to Start
This is a beautiful book, but the more famous Frazetta works are to be found in the two previous books of this trilogy. So this book is great for serious Frazetta fans, but "Icon" and "Legacy" are better books for showing the most famous of his works. This book, "Testament," is good for showing more of his unpublished stuff. It has many Playboy-type girlie paintings and drawings, some western ...

The Fantasy Master
When people think of fantasy artwork, they might think first of those Conan and Edgar Rice Burroughs paperback covers, or a berserker warrior on horseback, corpses of foes beneath him and dripping weapon above him. People think of Frazetta first, whether or not they know it's him they're thinking of. He's also done recognizable work for Mad magazine, Little Annie Fanny for Playboy, posters for ...

Underwood Books, 2007

PERHAPS THE BEST SPECTRUM YET!
Like Santa Claus, Spectrum only comes around once per year and is always highly anticipated. This annual collection of the world's best contemporary fantasy and Sci-fi art is always a favorite not only due to its sheer size and beautiful production, but also because of its diversity in scope. Spectrum presents the best art from the fields of books, comics, advertising, editorial, concept, and ...

Attention Deficit Disorder : A Different Perception

38 reviews
Thom Hartmann, Edward M. Hallowell (Introduction), ...

Underwood Books, 1997

Hartmann and Drugs
Hartmann is a successful multitasker: not only does he write popular books on ADD/ADHD, he has published numerous books of poetry, has opened four hospitals in Third World countries, and so on. His point is that ADD/ADHD is a curse if it is not channeled properly, but can be a great blessing, and an enormous goad (and even key) to success if the "sufferer" learns to handle it, learns to cope with ...

Women with Attention Deficit Disorder: Embrace Your Differences and Transform Your Life

Sari Solden

Underwood Books, 2005

U should buy this book!
I think this is one of the best books for women with Add. Most books are boring and technical or focus on children with ADD. This book is written for women who are often left behind in being diagnosed correctly or who want info for themselves. I kept this book and like to read it again now and then to get inspiration. Sari Solden is great at keeping it simple so everyone can understand the info ...

Spectrum 4: The Best in Contemporary Fantastic Art

3 reviews

Underwood Books, 2008

Endless source of inspiration for artists.
Spectrum 4 is one of those books that artists turn to when ideas are at a premium. The artwork is so voluminous and diverse in character. Every possible stylization of fantasy art is represented. Some works are intense and mysterious, dark and brooding. While others follow a campy, comic book hero genre. My favorite works are more of an illustrative fairy tale approach. However, I find this ...

I have become a collector of this series. Each year I am there to get my copy as soon as the publication comes out. Nothing but the best is presented here. Highly recommended.

Legacy: Paintings and Drawings by Frank Frazetta

Frank Frazetta

Underwood Books, 2008

Truly amazing...the Greatest Illustrators work...
Frazetta was an artist with a different style, yet seemed to capture and captivate so many foreign lands of barbarians and beasts...then bring them end gently place them on the table in front of us. From Conan to Tarzan and so much more, this is a great book. I call it a coffee table book because I had a rougher copy that I kept in the living room. Whenever someone came over they would start ...

Spectrum 9: The Best in Contemporary Fantastic Art

Underwood Books, 2002

Spectacular, As Usual
I have been patiently waiting (OK, maybe not so patiently) since November for Spectrum 9 to be released. Even though I had to wait an extra month and a half, it was well worth the wait. Once again, the Spectrum series provides us with the best in contemporary and fantastic art, and it IS fantastic. Entries range from weird, to gory, to funny, to beautiful. I began this series with Spectrum 8, ...

Spectrum 10: The Best in Contemporary Fantastic Art (Spectrum (Underwood Books))

Underwood Books, 2003

Drop Dead Gorgeous!
Sci-Fi and Fantasy artists have always seemed like illustration's poor step-children, often ignored (and sometimes sneered at) while the historical and Western painters wore the mantel of respectability. Thank goodness Spectrum came along to point out to the naysayers that Art is Art and that the practitioners of "fantastic" art are as gifted as anyone working today (if not better). Spectrum 10 ...

Thom Hartmann's Complete Guide to ADHD: Help for Your Family at Home, School and Work

Thom Hartmann

Underwood Books, 2000

Buy this Hartmann ADD book - it is his BEST
. There are lots of reviews detailing the major points and I think they do a pretty fair job. So I won't repeat them. The major point I would like to make is that Thom Hartmann has written several books - I think it's confusing trying to figure out which one(s) to read. His "A Different Perspective" was fantastic. But his "Complete Guid" is the best. If you are into NLP, his "Healing" book is ...

Underwood Books, 2005

The annual of fantasy art
As always, the annual Spectrum compiles hundreds of samples of the very best of 2004's fantasy art. The work is divided into categories that reflect the generally commercial origin of each work: ads, comics, books, etc. Every category displays a range of subjects and style. Lush realism predominates, including two of Royo's fantasy pinups. Other styles appear, too, including ink paintings by Vess ...

John Jude Palencar

Underwood Books, 2007

Glorious reproductions of many works by a brilliant artist
I enjoyed Palencar's surrealistic cover art for years without knowing his name. I think the first may have been for Connie Willis (both her collections of short fiction). I remember stopping and studying the cover and thinking, "Wow, this is really, really something." I saw more work, recognizably "that artist's" work, on other covers--Octavia Butler novels, Charles de Lint books. Oh, "The Onion ...

ADD Success Stories: A Guide to Fulfillment for Families with Attention Deficit Disorder

Thom Hartmann

Underwood Books, 1995

ADD Success Stories - Awesome
As a "hunter" myself, I never could get past all that boring ADD diagnotic stuff about receptors, etc. This was the first book on ADD that was interesting enough to read. It confirmed, for me, what I thought all along. I'm not defective, just different. Many gifted people throughout history have been just tormented by our boring farmer society. This book has also helped my to deal ...

Too good for words - just get it!
The postman arrived about an hour ago. I opened the parcel, the book and got lost in Jon's worlds. I just shut it and I felt need to get this out now. I first got hooked by Jon's art as I read Liz Williams' Inspector Chen novels. His covers are amazing. Before starting the novels, you are pulled into a world you wouldn't imagine. My compliments also go to Underwood Books, the publisher. What ...

Great to see a reprint now
The only one I missed (because of moving to the Netherlands). Happy to see a reprint finally of this book. The series is complete now (until next issue arrives of course). Every annual has been worth it and this one's no exception, even after 12 years!
