Good book, excellent reproductions of remarkable art.
I just found out about Anton Seder recently, could hardly believe I had missed an artist of such style, and after having read some negative reviews of another book on his work, I took a chance on this one and was not disappointed.The usual Dover quality, perhaps even better than usual. True to the name, it's limited to a collection of his creature drawings. But the reproductions are the reason to buy it. Good, clear, well-tended images.

Save your money
The image is pixelated, and the color is wrong. It is terrible reprint and thet is a shame Because Anton Seder artwork is beautiful. I return it.

Preview shows you nothing relevant
This is the kind of preview that is utterly useless and infuriating. We get to see the useless title pages but nothing except one image at the end. If anything, the preview should be just of the images so you get some sense of what's in there instead of previewing text about the author- I can Wikipedia that if I cared.

Nice images...
I’m a tattoo artist and I’m always looking for great pictorial/reference books.The images in this book are very clear and nicely sized. The paper is great quality so I see this book having a long and fulfilling life.I enjoy the feather images the most as I find they will be very helpful to designing more interesting feather tattoos.I have to say that I was hoping for more dragons and “beasts” but this book has more birds than anything else. Which is only slightly disappointing...Overall I think this book is very well done and inspiring for my needs. I’m happy to add it to my collection.
