This book was just fantastic. I've had it for a couple of years now (at least) and only just looked at the artwork. I finally took the time to read it as well and found the biography written by Doris Vallejo, the pieces written by Rowena herself about her artwork, and a few other contributors to be fascinating. Normally, I wouldn't part with a book like this, but I really think it should be shared with others, as the artwork within is just beautiful (and I own quite a few of the novels/books she's done cover or artwork for). Even if you've never heard of her, if you're a fantasy lover, I highly recommend this as her work is just breathtaking and her life's story and how she came up with each piece interesting.
