Look at their faces, at the set of their mouths. We've disturbed them in their native habitat. They are tolerating us for a moment, allowing us a brief glimpse before they scatter back to Prydain, to the Dreaming, to Deverry, to Darkover. None of them are ten feet tall, or look capable of much in the way of magic. But look at their faces. Look at the set of their mouths. They've been somewhere we can only hope to visit, secondhand, by the magic that flows from their pens. Look at their faces.
In 1984, photo-essayist Patti Perret and (the now vanished) Bluejay Press released a collection of photographs entitled Faces of Science Fiction. The book instantly became a collector's item and used for autographs at science fiction conventions. Twelve years later, Tor has come out with Perret's companion volume, The Face of Fantasy. Perret's book is filled with a random assortment of more than 100 modern fantasy authors. Each author received one page in which to describe who they are, their philosophy, or anything else that seemed appropriate.
The Faces of Fantasy, is a fun book to have, providing pictures of more than 100 fantasy authors from Lynn Abbey to Jane Yolen. And, of course, it makes a great place to keep all those autographs.
