  1. THE TIDES OF KREGEN (1976)
    Acrylic on Illustration Board - 18" x 16 ⅝"

    A cover and B&W interior illustration from very early in my career, this is one of three Dray Prescot novels I worked on. In total, there were 52 books in the series by Kenneth Bulmer writing as Alan Burt Akers.

  2. I was fortunate to grow up in a household with countless speculative fiction around. My father had many novels around, and I'd eventually read everything by some authors like Tolkien and Terry Brooks, and read extensively from others like Frank Herbert and Ursula K. Le Guin. Alan Burt Akers' Dray Prescot books (Transit to Scorpio, etc.) always intrigued me, but I never got far in reading them. I wonder if it would be worth revisiting that sword and planet series.
