A stunning collection of magical artworks by the legendary Roy G. Krenkel!

With nearly five hundred pieces of art, including sixteen generous foldouts, this is the definitive collection for fans of and newcomers to the virtuoso fantasy artist Roy G. Krenkel—curated by Craig Yoe, with a foreword by Sara Frazetta and a preface by Michael WM Kaluta.


If master draftspersons of the Renaissance were reincarnated to create sword-and-sorcery art of more contemporary times, they would have had Roy G. Krenkel as their mentor. RGK defined the term “an artist’s artist,” and younger fantasy artists have furiously collected and ardently studied his incredible work. Roy filled the pages of the pro-zine/fanzine Amra with his favorite art.

Now at last, the complete Amra illustrations are lovingly gathered from the rare ’zine to inspire and enthrall artists and art lovers. Fantastic dinosaurs, ape men, barbarians, cavemen and women, citizens of ancient civilizations, and saber-toothed tigers populate the luxurious pages of this stunning tome as only Roy G. Krenkel can deftly embellish them.

This limited edition set features the hardcover collection with a unique cover, housed inside a slipcase with an unique original piece of Roy G. Krenkel artwork in a clear portfolio sleeve!
