Reviews
This book was worth the price. I actually read it and found the text informative regarding the Red Sonja character. About a third of the illustrations in the book are what I would call good to excellent. More than half just are not very good. The comics industry does this all the time, they create a following for a book by assigning a rock star illustrator for 6 months or so and then hope that the readers will continue to buy the title because of the storyline after they put in a lesser art team. It is particularily offensive when a book like this comes out with a dozen or 2 good to excellent illustrations and the rest is filler.
