There aren't as many out there as there used to be so I thought I'd create a place to keep track of the covers that I like. I'd rather enjoy the fruits of other people's labours, but we'll see how it goes. With any luck, I'd like to post some of the books I've admired in the past if I can find decent scans of them.</p> <p>The first book is one by Henry Sene Yee. It's an apt choice, as everything I learned about book design I learned from him. I love the star and the illustrative effect that makes it feel as though the star is racing through the atmosphere; the rocket seems as though it's huffing with the effort of trying to reach it and the stars above.</p> <p>Read more about the inspiration for the design and see initial sketches <a href="http://henryseneyee.blogspot.com/2008/01/right-stuff-sketches.html">at his blog</a>.</p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5509987707280685520-3013342640170915713?l=wierheifehfiwherh.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Shall we dansuhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02112527392570477560noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5509987707280685520.post-40182841454269705132008-07-03T11:30:00.001-07:002008-07-03T11:30:59.058-07:00werwer wer wer<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5509987707280685520-4018284145426970513?l=wierheifehfiwherh.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Shall we dansuhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02112527392570477560noreply@blogger.com0
