NOR CRYSTAL TEARS (1981)
Acrylic - 30" x 19”A favorite theme of mine is the depiction of human-alien interactions. This book deals with the subject so wonderfully that I wanted to make it the focus of attention for the cover painting. 1/4

The last couple days I've been re-reading #alandeanfoster's 'A Call to Arms,' one of the #books that inspired the 'Humanity fuck yeah' or HFY sub-genre.
The premise: one alien federation is trying to fight off the inexorable advance of another, whose philosophy is to absorb all other species/cultures into its nebulous Purpose. The defending federation IDs humanity as a prospective ally, as it turns out we're stronger and psychologically suited to warfare vs any of their members. #books #scifi

Picked up a flat of Star Trek Books from a local auction the other day, Really only because I needed Star Trek Log Two to complete my "Log" collection from Alan Dean Foster, but also needed Star Trek 3 from James Blish
Most of these are TOS/Movie Era books, most in good or better condition - but you can really tell which ones have been read/re-read.
There are 25 books, that I picked up for $10.00 so not too bad of a deal.

@isotropesionenmoeppel
Ich hab nachgeguckt:
Drunter steht #StephenKing ein bisschen #NeilGaimann und 6 #Bannsänger-Bände¹, darüber kommt #ScienceFiction und Artverwandtes, von #IsaacAsimov, über #AndyWeir bis hin zu #DouglasAdams und #Illuminatus!—
¹ @idealistik sagt, dass #AlanDeanFoster eine geniale Idee hatte, aus der er nichts gemacht hat. -

@cjrando @maddiefuzz eh. I wouldn't dare. I actually read the Alan Dean Foster novelization before I saw the movie, so if anyone was to write a sequel, it would have to be #AlanDeanFoster

CW: Long thread/12
The "curse of bigness" is real, but who gets cursed is a matter of power, and big companies have a *lot* more power.
The chaos, in other words, is a feature and not a bug. It provides cover for contract-violating conduct, up to and including wage-theft. Remember when Disney/Marvel stole money from beloved science fiction giant #AlanDeanFoster, whose original #StarWars novelization was hugely influential on #GeorgeLucas, who changed the movie to match Foster's ideas?
