Visual Journeys at the Campbell Conference / Heinlein Centennial / SFRA

For those of you attending the big Campbell Conference -plus- Heinlein Centennial -plus- SFRA Conference this July 6-7-8 at the Kansas City Crown Center, you'll be able to have your copy of Visual Journeys: A Tribute to Space Artists signed by several of the contributors (yours truly, [livejournal.com profile] blzblack, [livejournal.com profile] saycestsay, and perhaps others). Visual Journeys is available now for pre-order from Amazon.com, but you can also get it directly from [livejournal.com profile] ericreynolds at the dealer's room. Eric is the book's editor, of course, and he'll have a table set up there for Hadley Rille Books.

I can hardly wait to see it! Here's the cover art:

Here's the full table of contents.

Authors and artists: Who of you will be there for signing? We should do a special Visual Journeys group signing!

See you there?

You think you've seen big crystals? THESE are big crystals.

Holy 36-foot-long crystals, Batman!

Yes, that's a man in the center of the image. Click the image to see the story.

WOW! I wonder how many places around the world have those precise conditions to allow for such massive crystal formations?

Had to share this.

Best,
Chris

Nice bit of art here showing Mars' former ocean:

Maybe we can live there some day.
