Art by Vincent DiFate

This Easton Press Tau Zero volume shows a deep burgundy full-leather binding with crisp 22kt gold accents across both the spine and front board - The cover artwork, by Vincent DiFate, features a finely detailed gold hourglass set within a field of scattered stars and orbital motifs, all rendered with sharp, even impressions. The Greek tau symbol appears prominently at the top of the spine and again on the front - The spine includes raised hubs, with TAU ZERO and POUL ANDERSON stamped in gold beneath a small decorative panel showing another hourglass illustration. The gilded 22kt gold page edges reflect smoothly - From a single owner private collection, stored in dust-free bookcases within a stable, dry climate. Its archival acid-neutral, paper shows no discoloration, and the smyth-sewn binding with concealed muslin joints sits perfectly tight, indicating the volume has not been read or handled beyond careful shelving - The leather shows no rubbing or softening, and the 22k gold stamping remains bright without flaking. A pristine bookplate is affixed inside the front cover, unused and unmarked - This collector's edition includes an introduction by Hal Clement and belongs to the Masterpieces of Science Fiction series by The Easton Press.

          What is your favorite work/series/art/etc that starts with the letter "B"?

          Also include why you like it!

          The rules are lax, you can include or exclude "A" or "The" as you want (e.g. The Predator can go under T or P). You can also remove the franchise name if you want (e.g. Star Trek: Voyager can go under S or V).

          Include both the hashtags and so we can sort the answers.

          You can also answer the previous too if you missed it! There's no deadline.

                  Book cover for "A Case of Conscience" by James Blish, featuring cover art by Fred Gambino. The image is a vertical composition with a dominant color palette of bright orange, yellow, red, and contrasting deep blues. Along the left edge is a solid, bright yellow vertical stripe containing the text "SF MASTERWORKS" in black capital letters. In the upper right quadrant, the author's name "JAMES BLISH" is printed in large, dark blue sans-serif capital letters. Directly underneath, the book title "A Case of Conscience" is rendered in a black serif typeface. Below the title, smaller capitalized black text reads "WINNER OF THE HUGO AWARD FOR BEST NOVEL". The central illustration depicts an alien landscape. In the right foreground, a man's face is shown from the chest up, looking forward. He has brown, wavy hair and wears a futuristic metallic spacesuit with circular indentations around the neck. Visible inside the suit collar is a black clerical shirt with a white tab, accompanied by a small silver cross hanging from a thin chain. Bright yellow light illuminates his face from the right, while deep blue and red shadows cover his left side. To his left in the mid-ground stands a slender, bipedal reptilian alien creature with scales, large dark eyes, and a narrow head, dressed in an ochre tunic. In the background, two stylized palm-like trees with dark purple fronds and knobby trunks stand against an orange-to-yellow gradient sky. A small grey spacecraft floats in the upper left sky.

                          Logan's Run. A Novel by William F. Nolan & George Clayton Johnson. Cover art by William Hofmann. This dynamic, action-oriented illustration features a futuristic, stylized cityscape. The primary subjects are a man and a woman depicted in mid-motion, as if fleeing. In the foreground, a muscular, bald man dominates the right side of the frame. Shown from the waist up in profile, he wears a tight-fitting, bright blue sleeveless bodysuit. His right arm extends toward the viewer, his palm facing up while cradling a small, glowing purple object. His skin features warm, golden-yellow highlights and deep shadows, suggesting intense side lighting. Behind him and to the left, a woman with long, flowing brown hair is captured running toward the right. She wears a red, one-piece athletic outfit, her body angled toward the background. The background consists of an abstract, futuristic cityscape with tall, curved, organic-looking structures. These dark buildings feature glowing accents, including a prominent red circular window on a nearby spire. The sky is a hazy gradient of pale lavender and light grey, set above a dark, indistinct ground. The lighting is dramatic and high-contrast, featuring bright highlights against deep shadows. The bold, saturated color palette of bright blue, deep red, and vibrant purple contrasts with the muted, atmospheric background. The painterly textures and visible brushstrokes enhance the sense of movement and energy.

                                    Re-reading Neuromancer this week. Inspired by the trailer - the book is different in feel at least, but also other ways, I want to know what in particular.

The Unique Magazine, March 1929, 25c, Printed in U.S.A. A large horned ram with short brown fur and large curved horns stands on all fours over a pile of people lying on the ground. Beneath the ram, one man lies on his back, bare and partially covered, while a second man also lies on his back, bare and partially covered, and a third man lies on his back, bare and partially covered. In the right foreground, a woman with dark hair and a headband stands with her bare torso and a patterned reddish-brown skirt, reaching upwards with both hands against a stone pedestal. This pedestal is draped with a garland of leaves and has wisps of white smoke rising from it. The background consists of a stone wall or fortification and dark green foliage under a dark sky.

                                                  She’d been attacked.
                                                  She’d survived.
                                                  She was filthy.
                                                  She was going to take Silar’s head off if he was responsible.
                                                  He could read that all off a knife.

                                                    If you'd like to join in, this week's movie is BEGINNING OF THE END (1957), a black and white classic about giant maneating grasshoppers! It's a hoot.

                                                    The flick's available free with ads over on Tubi: tubitv.com/movies/100056094/be

                                                    Just hit play at the top of the hour and toot along! See you there!

I will watch Disclosure Day again as I think it might have more to offer than a single screening could afford. The Mandalorian and Co. was two streaming episodes stitched into one long movie. It was not terrible but in agreement with a lot of people, I found it a bit bland, and underwhelming, especially when compared to the first season of the streaming series.
