But wow, was I blown away by just the book’s cover alone!" - The Blot Says "A great book for Ian Miller fans, fans of fantasy art, and for writers that want some images to spark their imagination." - Fantasy Writer’s Workshop"The book is gorgeous and Miller’s drawings are something you can go back to again and again and find new things every time." - Comic Book Resources"A step inside of the dark, detailed, and meticulous mind of Miller." - Nerdology"An exciting and vivid collection. This book shows Miller is able to draw in a unique way, all from his own head, that shows a sense of wonder you can’t get from every artist.

Reviews
Received "The Art of Ian Miller" yesterday and am simply blown away!I've been exposed to some of Miller's art over the years (primarily through older UK paperbacks), and when this book was announced I did a quick Google image search and saw that his work looked even more up my alley than I would have expected.So I eagerly opened the box from Amazon yesterday and ended up getting completely lost in this book for almost an hour. It was a darkly magical experience!This book has great production values: perfect size and form factor, nice paper, logical presentation of Miller's dense and hyperimaginative illustrations, well-printed and color-corrected reproductions, etc. For overall effect, I'd put "The Art of Ian Miller" up there with the Underwood Frazetta trilogy - it's just that good!I don't know if they give out World Fantasy Awards for art books, but if they do "The Art of Ian Miller" deserves one.
