About The Author

John Howe

Graeme Aymer has been writing about creativity and design for over ten years for titles that include Computer Arts, Computer Arts Projects, and MacWorld. Raised on a diet of Marvel comics, Muppet monsters, and battlestars, he was born in North London and grew up in such contrasting climes as Jamaica, The Bahamas, and Massachusetts before returning to London just in time for the 1990s.

John Howe (Foreword) was lead conceptual artist of The Lord of the Rings movie trilogy alongside Alan Lee, and his vision of the dragon Smaug has set a standard. His work has also been inspired by such legends as Beowulf and he has illustrated many other books, including A Diversity of Dragons. He also contributed to the film adaptation of The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe. Most recently, Howe has published a book exploring his own dragon artworks: John Howe, Forging Dragons.
