A note for parents
This is an art book and retrospective of Charles Vess's fantasy illustration work, not a narrative fiction book. It offers substantial educational value through exposure to professional fantasy art, technique, and the work of a celebrated illustrator. The content itself is visual art rather than text-heavy, so traditional content concerns are difficult to assess without seeing the actual images. Parents should review the book themselves to ensure the depicted fantasy imagery fits their child's comfort level.

The fantasy art of Charles Vess is acclaimed worldwide, his rich palette, striking compositions, and lavish detail second to none. Vess created memorable works for such best selling fantasy authors as Neil Gaiman, Susanna Clarke, Charles De Lint, and George R. R. Martin, as well as a who''s-who list of publishers and clients. His art is breathtakingly singular while recalling the golden age of illustration, when paint and brush were the vessels that carried readers to distant lands, bygone ages, and realms of the imagination. Featuring a forword by Susanna Clarke, author of Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell.
