Tirpetz' Tales


"We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars"

Oscar Wilde (1854-1900)

"Writing is not necessarily something to be ashamed of; but do it in private and wash your hands afterwards."

Lazarus Long, "Time Enough For Love," by Robert A. Heinlein


This website’s a monster.

Every time I figure its complete, I think of another author I’ve read who deserves a page of their own.

Info out there is fragmentary, lots of sites list an author's work, including publication dates and publishers, but, they don't always list the cover artist. I can understand the dilemma, sometimes, the cover artist isn't credited anywhere in the book's credits. We're having some fun, now.

Good Galleries? Therion's, Solaris, Imagenetion - hit and miss and, of course, the artist's official web site can't be beat. The galleries I've listed below are the best I've found in my hunt for original covers. (the stories I could tell about my adventures . . . )

I want to thank Fantastic Fiction, The Speculative Fiction Data Base, Spacelight, Locus Index and The Powers Compendium, without whom, I would be lost, finding out which artist did what cover and other essential facts.
