Pull up your favorite armchair and have your lackey pour you a snifter of absinthe or finest raspberry cordial.
This is a cracking book full of bright pictures of all kinds of wondrous scientific violence as mentioned by the fine persons next to me. It's very nice to also see pages devoted to the testimonial portraits from the old Weta website.
It's affordably priced, quite wonderful and you'd be a very miserable outcast wretch shunned by all if you pass it up. Hide.

Just as impressed as before. The larger format is nice - but I'll tell you what is nicer...the thick cover weight pages!!!!!!! That is a very nice touch that ads to the substantiality of the book. A Weta constant I'm hoping for all future tomes.
Contents are fantastic, new weapons are very lustful - Saturn 67 in metal, please - and the copy makes me chuckle out loud at regular intervals to the delightful annoyance of our local bookstore clientele.
Hazzah! Hide.

This is a quality item. From the vibrant cover to the very classy fame encrusted backend (talk about name dropping!), this book oozes goodness of gastronomic proportions. The pages are similar in weight to the Dingus Directory but seem to have that extra little bit of glossiness. And size. Good size. Great size.
There's some pictures of soldiers you may aspire to be (with stupendous descriptions), a fmominally informative bestiary of Venusian wildlife, and brightly brought action packed ventures of Lord Cockswain to boot!
Yet wait till you behold the Remoreseless Landship - I'm sure a certain Mr Tremont will whip up one of those in his lunch break! Huzzah! Make that a double Sir! Huzzah Huzzah!
Final note... The shiny bookplate of Earth Elite Forces I got from preorder also happened to be fraternising with a photo from Miss Phantom inside the front cover. What an unexpected stupefaction!
After the fact final note - Well done Greg Broadmore - I learned to read just so I could read this book!
Really final fact - Was kidding about the learning to read bit above. Hide.
