Robota de Doug Chiang
This was decent, not great. I was surprised to find out it was put out in 2003 because it really had a kind of early 90's feel to it (and not in a good way). I liked the art better than the writing. The story seemed "abridged", like it wanted to be something between a graphic novel and a regular novel.
½Gorgeous art, so-so story. Kinda like the movie *Avatar* that way. I wouldn't recommend you pay too much for it.
Worth collecting
I have long been a fan of Card, and realize now (after looking again at my Star Wars art books) that I have also been a Chiang fan for many years. The book's foreword is useful in explaining the origins of the artwork as well as the writing. It also gives a sense of the almost whimsical boyhood reminiscence which underlies the artwork. Daydreams of tall ships, deserted city ruins, fantastical alien creatures, and robot warriors. This book may not have a lot of developmental depth characters-wise, but it really doesn't need that to serve its purpose. It is tastey eye candy, or maybe I should say brain candy with Card's input.… (mais)
