A beautiful way to recycle that old hard copy Encyclopaedia set!

Wow. O_o I like.
(There’s going to be comments hating this because the artist wasted perfectly readable books, or something along those lines. Just wait.)

these books could’ve been read instead! what a waste!
ok, those are the comments that are going to pop up later on. or would’ve popped up had Darrell not pointed it out already.
without context on what the books were, I don’t think it’s fair to call it a “waste of perfectly good books” immediately. I think it’s pretty. The detail is incredible. However, I will admit to one thing - the novelty of “so and so from books” is starting to wear on me
