Journeyman is a very good and long overdue first portfolio of Moore's illustration work. The images included give a broad cross section of his work, with examples of both his Science Fiction illustration and covers for contempary thrillers.
Sadly the layout was not all it could have been with some of the pictures spanning the spine of the book and so loosing some of their impact. The accompanying text gives insight into Moore's creative processes and motivation, as well as including a number of anecdotal tales from his working life. Overall a good buy.
