I bought it on Kindle after reading about it here, and seeing that it was endorsed by the President of my school's Theological Seminary. It really is amazing and beautiful, and for $4 on Kindle you can't beat the price!

I’m generally not a giant fan of biblical illustration as a concept. It’s a way of inserting the artists opinion of what the work means into the work.

illustration in general has the particular effect of imparting information instantly instead of as a stream. The whole “a picture is worth a thousand words” thing. This can sort of blow past a person’s conscious and impart things at a visceral level which is why it’s so useful in advertising.

It’s important to keep in mind that the illustrations are not the work, they’re a single persons opinions about the meaning of the work done as art. A persuasive commentary on the work not the actual scripture.

That said it could be a cool opinion. Revelations is the weirdest and most weakly documented book in the Bible. How allegorical it is and what the allegories even mean have been hotly disagreed about for a very very long time.
