The French blog “Les Echos d'Altaïr” dedicated a post to Peter Andrew Jones in January 2010.

This post did not follow the pattern of the others, which consisted of a short biography of the author and a selection of a dozen of his best-known works of art. It presents only two of PAJ’s artworks, and gives as an “unpublished” addition extracts from an interview given by the artist for the TF1 documentary “Les Couleurs de l'Irréel”.

In the foreground, an interesting, shapeless ice hill looms over the reader. In the background, a chain of mountains seem to form a natural enclosure for another part of this planet, which, although icy, seems to be close to a large star, similar to the sun if it weren’t a reflection of another landscape inside this big red ball.

This is how to transform a simple science fiction landscape into an image full of plasticity and meaning, showing the reader that literary criticism is not always a long, theoretical and tedious discussion, but also has its charm.

The cover art for one of his books, “The Science Fiction of Isaac Asimov: A lively survey authorised by the Master”, has as its cover art a beautiful landscape produced by Peter Andrew Jones, the artist responsible for some of Asimov’s own book cover art.

There isn’t much information about Joseph F. Patrouch Jr. This author has a considerable academic output, concentrated in the 1970s and 1980s, massively devoted to Isaac Asimov (1920-1992). Patrouch Jr also published some science fiction short stories in the same period, making him a versatile author who explores science and fiction in parallel.

The cover of The Sword of the Samurai by Peter Andrew Jones shows what is perhaps the pit of demons, with a corpse-like samurai in the foreground staring at the reader-player even before the adventure begins.

The red lake with skeletons and the unique path that (perhaps) leads to the volcano in the background give a good idea of the dangers that the reader-player will have to overcome.

Any wrong turn and the pond will gain another “swimmer”.

Peter Andrew Jones created the cover art for many of Thomson’s gamebooks, including “The Sword of the Samurai”. Set on the fictional continent of Khul, in the world of Titan (where the adventures of many other “Fighting Fantasy” gamebooks take place), the reader-player must travel to the Well of Demons, help those in need and fight enemies, then try to win the final showdown for the Dai-Katana. This is a gamebook that is different from the other fantasy titles in the pioneering gamebook franchise, mainly because it switches from Tolkenian fantasy to fantastic feudal Japan.

Jamie Thomson has since published six novels for children: “Corvus”, the “Dark Lord” series and “Wrong Side of the Galaxy”. He was the winner of the Roald Dahl Funny Prize 2012. In 2020, Thomson joined the team behind VulcanVerse, a decentralised 3D MMO game that builds on a blockchain called "Elysium" and runs on Polygon and Ethereum.

After years as a (co-)author, Jamie Thomsom went on to work full-time in video game development at Eidos Interactive, publisher of “Tomb Raider”. In 1999, he raised over £1 million to set up his own game development company, Black Cactus. “Warrior Kings” and “Warrior Kings: Battles” were two of his productions, which he then closed down. He invested in a new start-up, Fabled Lands LLP, an intellectual property development company specialising in his own titles to be released as comics, novels and iPhone apps.

Jamie Thomson was born in Iran on 14 November 1958. He is a British writer, editor and games developer. He grew up in Brighton and met one of his co-authors, Mark Smith, at Brighton College. He graduated from the University of Kent with a degree in politics and government.
Thomson was assistant editor of “White Dwarf” magazine from 1981 to 1984 and a columnist for Games Workshop’s “Warlock”. There, he was one of the developers of the computer game “The Tower of Despair”.

From 1984 onwards, he was a prolific and best-selling author. One of his most successful series was “The Way of the Tiger”, six sequential gamebooks whose protagonist is a ninja. Written with Mark Smith, his gamebooks have been published in Japan, France, the USA, Italy and Sweden. Other gamebook series written by him were “Duel Master”, “Falcon”, (all co-written with Mark Smith) and “Fabled Lands” (co-written with Dave Morris). He also co-wrote three gamebooks for the “Fighting Fantasy” series: “Talisman of Death”, “Sword of the Samurai” (again with Mark Smith) and “The Keep of the Lich Lord” (again with Dave Morris).

"THE VIEW FROM THE STUDIO"

This time last year.

And unlike yesterday, rain today.

So, still unclear when "normal summer" might appear  . . . .

As mentioned before . . . .
The progression from Spring into Summer is always variable.

Finally, no rain today (so far).

And the hills are at least vibrant summer green.

Fingers crossed . . . .

Blog article 3of 3
by Pedro Panhoca.

http://www.peterandrewjones.net/blog-sa2024.htm.

John Varley’s style is very reminiscent of Robert A. Heinlein’s, both in its descriptive writing style and in its themes of societies and free love.
Winner of the Nebula (1979), Hugo (1980) and Locus (1980) awards, "Titan" is the first book in the “Gaea Trilogy”. It tells of an expedition to Saturn where the protagonists encounter a centaur people, aliens, angels and a strange “torus”, all with sudden changes in behavior for no reason and a lot of unpredictability.

Peter Andrew Jones brought to life the cover art, which depicts a strange tentacled monster in the foreground while a vertical ship is in the background. This is perhaps the most enigmatic artwork, as no key element of the narrative is presented explicitly. The strange creature, the vast universe in the background, and the ship in an unusual position, however, disturb and instigate the reader to get to know this new world.

John Varley wrote several novels, his first attempt being “Gas Giant”, and several short stories, collected in the series “The Eight Worlds”. These stories take place a century or two after a race of mysterious and omnipotent aliens, the Invaders, have almost completely eradicated humans from Earth (they consider whales and dolphins to be the superior terrestrial life forms and humans just a dangerous infestation). But human beings have inhabited practically every other corner of the solar system, often using biological modifications learnt, in part, by listening to alien communications.

“Overdrawn at the Memory Bank” was adapted and televised on PBS in 1983. In addition, two of his short stories – “Options” and “Blue Champagne” – were adapted into episodes of the Sci-Fi Channel’s short-lived TV series Welcome to Paradox in 1998. In the Hollywood industry, he contributed to the writing of the film Millennium.

John Varley was born in Austin, Texas, but grew up in Fort Worth and later moved to Port Arthur. He also lived in places like Portland, Eugene, Oregon, New York, San Francisco, Berkeley and Los Angeles throughout his life.

He under-graduated from Netherlander High School and then went to Michigan State University thanks to a national merit scholarship. He went on to study Physics and then English, but then dropped out and moved to Haight-Ashbury in San Francisco. There, he worked at various unskilled jobs, depended on St Anthony’s Mission for meals and even begged.

Then he decided to venture out as a writer.
