Embrace the Mutation: Fiction Inspired by the Art of J.K. Potter

Dustjacket, endsheet, and interior art by J.K. Potter.

Unlike in most anthologies, in Embrace the Mutation: Fiction Inspired by the Art of J.K. Potter each story begins with an image...

Along with page decorations, small sketches and other grace notes, legendary artist J.K. Potter has contributed two dozen never-before published photos, those he's held back, keeping his most intense and impressive images in his private collection... until now.

A dozen acclaimed writers of the dark and fantastic have taken these images and constructed their stories around them, giving length and written substance to Potter's nightmares.

Embrace the Mutation is published as an oversized hardcover in three states. To ensure each illustration leaps off the page, the entire book will be printed on a specially coated paper usually reserved for art books. The Trade edition is fully bound in cloth, with a wraparound full-color dustjacket, signed by the editors and J.K. Potter.

Authors include:

• Michael Bishop
• Poppy Z. Brite

• Kim Newman

Lettered copies with original drawings on traycases.  J. K. Potter did these at our request, please note some of silver paint he used may be on the grey cloth where it should not be on some of these.  Also the pictures are originals by Potter and are covered with a film to protect them in the traycase, consequently there is a lot of glare in these pictures, sorry!
