In the comment thread for my post about Microcosm's rave review in Publisher's Weekly, outeast writes,
There's been something I've been dying for, and here's as good a place as any to mention it: real coffee-table editions of your books, meaning lavishly illustrated throughout rather than with a couple of meagre (though nice in themselves) wedges of pictures in the middle. When I'm reading about the different stages parasites go through and so on I want to see it - I want to see the flukes pouring from the toad and all that. And I want books that visitors will ohh and ahh (and eww) over, books that will last for years and that my kids will stumble across a decade from now and show to their fascinated and horrified friends... Pretty pretty please, do tell your publisher!!
First off, everyone should know that writers love this sort of stuff. ...
