Description

Lions & Velons: The Bestiary of Kokoro and Moon SlayerLions & Velons is a unique mini dictionary that explores even further the books and narratives illustrated by Neil Hague. It is 'more than a dictionary' or bestiary, it is an extraordinary companion to the stories of 'dualistic forces' that have battled for eons across many worlds. In this highly original and personal work, Neil gives further insight into the 'characters and creatures' that appear in his illustrated books Kokoro and Moon Slayer.

Lions & Velons is a unique mini-dictionary that explores even further the books and narratives illustrated by Neil Hague.
It is 'more than a dictionary' or bestiary, it is an extraordinary companion to the stories of 'dualistic forces' that have battled for eons across many worlds. In this highly original and personal work, Neil gives further
insight into the 'characters and creatures' that appear in his illustrated books Kokoro and Moon Slayer.

Alphabetically presented, we are taken 'behind the scenes' and 'across a myriad of star systems' to encounter the different 'lions and velons', the 'opposing forces' that have battled over Earth since the beginning of time. We are introduced to new characters while familiar ones are embellished further as Neil
visually explains the Gnostic myths of Sophia and how worlds are formed and worlds are 'possessed' by the entities called the Velon or Jinn. Like a shaman
taking us into otherworldly landscapes, Lions & Velons illustrates the many gods, goddesses, suns and planets all engulfed in an 'epic war of the Heavens'.

Through Neil's unique style of imagery we are introduced in more detail to the 'Lions of Durga', the Velon, Lord Marduk, the Priests of Saturn, the Owls Ships of Urza, and the Eagle Warriors of Uthorna and Atlantis. In the spirit of William Blake's personal myths and books, such as Albion (Four Zoas), through to modern day Science Fiction film and literature, Lions & Velons un-packs the
'multidimensional', 'highly imaginary' and 'informative worlds' of the artist and Illustrator Neil Hague.

would have been better as a blog
Format: Paperback
First off, I have read over half of this book, but ultimately decided to put it down because it had a low signal-to-noise ratio. If the second half is filled with magic, I apologize in advance. What I liked: * The author is very honest. He does not shy away from discussing his failures (and successes). * The postmortem on the game "Life of Pixel" was especially good. * Interviews from various indie studios are sprinkled throughout. What I did not like: * A number of pieces of information were already out-of-date. This makes me think that the concepts should have been discussed at a higher level. For example, specifics about game engine costs are discussed. These numbers have changed since E3 of this year. Definitely recheck any information before formulating a plan based on the book's recommendations. * The indie studio interviews are a wasted opportunity in that they each interview has the same set of questions. It's like a questionnaire was sent out via email and the responses were pasted into the book. * When discussing commercial options, such as engines or other software packages, blurbs once again appear to be cut-and-pasted (this time verbatim from the package's web site). * Some of the advice is too broad and too light. For example, when writing about how to create a press release, the author discuss how to write in the active voice. I'm frankly not looking for writing tips in my Indie Game Developer Handbook. * The book is filled with tons of web links. My paperback copy was not so useful here. I ultimately left the book with the impression that the information would have been much better in the form of a blog. The author could have really gone in depth with the parts of the book that shined while keeping the surveys of topics in a form that serves them better (i.e. web links on the web).

Helpful information and Questions to consider
Format: Paperback
As a writer of science fiction and fantasy I had already looked into the physical aspects of the worlds I was creating, but I quickly realized I needed to include society and culture in the worldbuilding. I started a search for information, questionairres, or guidelines to use and found very little that would be helpful to me as a writer. Until I came across this book. It's exactly what I needed. It touches on multiple aspects of beliefs and practices and asks questions to help you think through what you want for your worlds, even if it's mostly backgroud. A very useful tool.
