Stephen Youll Cover Art

Stephen Youll has painted the covers for many of my books, from my original novel BLINDFOLD, to my three STAR WARS anthologies -- TALES FROM THE MOS EISLEY CANTINA, TALES FROM JABBA'S PALACE, and TALES OF THE BOUNTY HUNTERS -- to all ten of the new DUNE books with Brian Herbert. A while ago, he asked me to write the introduction to PARADOX, his coffee-table art book.

Barnes and Noble has just featured him on their "Cover Story" section on their website. Watch this five-minute video and hear Stephen talk about his work and his technique. I think you'll find it fascinating.
