Imagine a world where humans live in peace with one another and with all of nature, and in telepathy with plants. Where it's possible to travel through space as a light wave. Alicia Bay Laurel invites you to experience that world.
Eartha & Aetherias is an eco sci-fi romantasy graphic novella, set in the 22nd century on a utopian planet Earth populated by peaceful human beings, plus a variety of spirits and light beings, and the occasional extraterrestrial. It is a love story, and a series of heroic journeys, as well as a tour of an innovative future human society. Many of the beings in the illustrations are unclothed, so the book is not intended for readers under 18 years, but it is designed for readers that like to color the illustrations!
The large format pages are entirely hand-lettered in cursive script, and lavishly illustrated with black ink line drawings, all by Alicia Bay Laurel, who also designed the book. Alicia is renowned for her best-selling bohemian outdoor living unguide, Living on the Earth, first published in 1970 and still in print over 50 years later, the pioneer of this influential book design and illustration style.
The monochrome interior edition is perfect for those who want to add their own color choices to the illustrations, and save the unnecessary expense of four-color printing on the interior pages.
