The Book of Schuiten
The art of Francois Schuiten of "Cities of the Fantastic" fame.
Rebuilding Story Worlds
Set in a parallel world, full of architecturally distinctive city-states, the comics series The Obscure Cities represents one of literature's most impressive pieces of world-building. Rebuilding Story Worlds explores both the artistic traditions from which the series emerges and the innovative ways it plays with genre, gender, and urban space.
Fever in Urbicand
Eugen Robick thought he had designed the perfect city, efficiently divided between the consummately aesthetic and the irrational. But then a small but mysterious grid of beams invades and exponentially expands into an indestructible city-engulfing lattice, allowing a bridge between the city's two halves. As well-laid plans are thrown into disarray, readers will join in Robick's search to learn the cube's secret and the errors of his own ways. Illustrated in b/w throughout.
