Non-Fiction Books

One of this generation’s most popular cult fantasy artists, Brom has a distinctive and disturbing vision. 150 full-color reproductions offer a glimpse into the mind of this dark master whose work has enhanced books, comics, games, and videos, ranging from Dungeons & Dragons to Doom II. Among the material included are unpublished early works; covers such as the deeply unsettling Fire Clown and horror-filled Rat’s Den ; and trading cards in a variety of genres, including the collectible Dark Age.

Brom’s potent brand of sinister, disturbing imagery comes to life through a selection of his very best work of recent years. In addition to covers from best-selling novels by Terry Brooks and Anne McCaffrey, there are illustrations for comic books ( Batman ); movies ( Galaxy Quest and Sleepy Hollow ); computer games ( Doom II ), and collectible cards (ICE’s Lord of the Rings ). More than 120 haunting images.

Brom has collected together the very best of his art spanning his 30 year career. Many pieces have never before been published. Brom has written an insightful autobiography sharing his artistic journey from his earliest childhood drawings, his frustrations with commercial art, challenges breaking into the industry, to his years working in games and film, and insights into his latest personal works. Brom’s art is a harmony of extremes: dark and beautiful, haunting and inspiring, majestic and raw. The Art of Brom is equally diverse. Here are images made iconic through his illustrated novels and his work in film and games. Many of the book’s images, including those previously published, have been rescanned from the original artwork, and color-corrected by the artist himself, ensuring meticulous reproduction quality. Furthermore, this collection is designed by Brom allowing him the opportunity to arrange his art in a personal manner, with large full-color images and details to show his brush work.
