"An incredible selection of Foss' work." - io9 "An indispensable collection of out-there space art." - SciFi Bulletin "There's a real sense of wonder all over this book and personally, I still find it all very inspiring.

    It was a great experience doing business with this seller! Before they sent me this book, they told me that the last one they had had some damage to the cover and some of the pages were bent and offered to partially refund me if I still wanted the book. I appreciated the care they took before sending me the book, and I’m honestly happy that the book was still in pretty decent condition other than what was mentioned. Would definitely recommend this seller!

    I purchased multiple books from this seller, and this was a great experience! Each book was listed at a great price! Everything was shipped out quickly, and arrived only a few days after that. The book was packaged appropriately as well. The condition of the book was even better than what was listed, as it looked almost brand new, rather than the “very good” that was stated. I absolutely would buy from this seller again!
