Rossum’s Universal Replicas

Christopher Conlon’s latest book Rossum’s Universal Replicas is out now from BearManor Media.  It is a revinvention of Czech writer Karel Čapek’s influential 1920’s play R.U.R., giving a fresh take on Čapek’s story of robots and the end of human civilization.

I’d worked with Christopher before, providing the cover art for his novel Lullaby for the Rain Girl, and one of my images was used on the cover of the Japanese edition of the anthology he edited, He Is Legend, so I was delighted when he approached me about using one of my early personal pieces, Awakening, for the cover of his latest book.
