Lee Brown Coye created more than 50 years worth of wildly imaginative and fantastic artwork for magazines like the original Weird Tales and prized books by Ray Bradbury, H. P. Lovecraft, and many other classic fantasy and horror authors. Now readers can find out why modern day artists in film (Guillermo del Toro, Pan’s Labyrinth), horror (Stephen King, The Mist), and graphic-novels (Mike Mignola, Hellboy) are such big Coye fans.

The one negative, and it is only a slight one, is the layout. The text and artwork don't follow chronologically very well so you will find yourself paging back and forth to match up illustrations with the text. Bibliography, footnotes, and index are all handy. Gobs and gobs of illustrations, almost too many. It could have used more full-page graphics.
The book is printed on a heavy high gloss magazine type stock which I'm not sure I'm a big fan of. It gives it a bit of an amateur look. It has the sort of shiny slick cover I always associate with textbooks from my grammar school days.
I have always felt that Coye was much better than his contemporaries at capturing the truly uncanny in his book and pulp illustrations, much more so than the more heralded [a:Virgil Finlay|348643|Virgil Finlay|https://d.gr-assets.com/authors/1360990626p2/348643.jpg] or [a:Hannes Bok|205038|Hannes Bok|https://d.gr-assets.com/authors/1250179378p2/205038.jpg]. His illustrations had just the right touch of weird along with a gallows sort of humor to them. ( )
