If you’re looking at original artwork behind a number of games one of the names that will appear time and again is Sparth especially looking at work from Halo as well as Rage. It’s detailed, its inspirational and also allows the reader a glimpse into the world of the artist. Add to this the artists own words to backed up with his artwork and a wonderfully comprehensive put together title makes this a book that is not only hard to put down but one you’ll open time and again.
