Bøger af Greg Fox

A delightful collection of sumptuous pencil figure drawings of the male nude by artist Greg Fox, (best known for being the artist/writer of the syndicated comic strip "Kyle's Bed & Breakfast"). Drew Danvers, a popular character in the comic strip, is the male figure depicted in these drawings, although he's never before been seen in such detail and full-frontal state of undress as he is throughout this book. The pencil drawings are impressively reproduced, (many look as if they are the actual original penciled artwork), and are quite worthy of framing. In fact, included in the book is a helpful guide for page removal along with framing instructions. Also included is a background story of the Drew Danvers character, charting his humble beginnings growing up on a peach orchard in Alabama through his arrival and dramatic storyline at Kyle's B&B, (with a number of panels from the comic strip). And there's even a 3-page "message" from Drew Danvers himself, along with his Mama's Alabama peach pie recipe! You certainly don't need to know a thing about "Kyle's B&B" to enjoy this book... it's for anyone who has a fondness for quality, classical style figure drawings of the male nude.

The language of poetry is particularly well-suited to capture the beauty of nature. Now, journey into the writings of poets through the ages, as they examine, respond to, and celebrate the wonders of the natural environment. Divided into four sections to reflect the four seasons, this collection includes such luminaries as William Shakespeare, Walt Whitman, Emily Dickinson, Robert Frost, and many more, in a time span covering the 16th through the early 20th century. With an introduction and nature photographs by Greg Fox.

If you've never seen Kyle's Bed & Breakfast before, this is a perfect entry point to get a small sampling of the wildly addictive, romantic yet often laugh-out-loud funny comic strip series. While there are already a number of larger print collections of Kyle's B&B available, this smaller collection is sort of a "greatest hits" sampler of 33 episodes, featuring several stories from books 3, ("Hot Off the Griddle"), 4, ("Without Reservations"), and 5, ("Inn Mates"). Designed for the new reader of Kyle's B&B, this affordably priced sampler is sure to make you want to come back for a "full meal"! (NOTE: if you already own books 3, 4 and 5, then you won't see any new material in this collection).

The B&B boys have returned in their third collection, for more hijinks, romance, and laugh-out-loud wackiness, interwoven with some heartwarming drama! This volume marks the beginning of Kyle's Bed & Breakfast in full color, (the previous two collections were in black & white), and we meet some fun new characters including the Norwegian astronomer Njord, the enchanting transgendered Morgan St. Cloud, and the preppy, machiavellian Price Kingsbury! As always, the episodes are crackling with whip-smart dialogue and unexpected twists and turns. And, now in full color, the artwork looks better and grander, (and the guys more hunky!), than ever! Also included is a handy "Who's Who" to start off the collection for any new readers, (although you don't really need it... newcomers can jump right in and enjoy the gay antics!). And there's also a new, never-before-published episode, and some gorgeous new, full-color drawings of the B&B guys that would make for great pin-ups. While the strip is clearly chock-full of LGBT characters, it's quite apparent from a quick glance at the Facebook fan page that Kyle's B&B has legions of straight fans, too. Gay, straight, bisexual, whatever.... Kyle's B&B is the place you want to be!

Welcome to Kyle's Bed & Breakfast, the brilliantly addictive comic strip series about a gay B&B and the lives of the eclectic group of guys who live there. Like most bed & breakfasts, there are guests who come & go, but at Kyle's B&B, there's a core group of 5 who have settled in and made it their home, (as well as a number of other supporting characters who just can't seem to leave, either!). And who would want to leave? With the swirling romances, simmering intrigue, unexpected plot twists and shocking revelations... all tied together with whip-smart dialogue and often laugh-out-loud situations, (not to mention, a fair amount of guys strolling the halls in their briefs), all set in the backdrop of the beautifully scenic harbor town of Northport... this is one B&B you'll never want to check out of! While this is the fifth volume in the ongoing series, it isn't necessary to have read prior volumes... new readers can easily jump right in and get swept up into the story. (There's also an intro to all of the major & minor characters right at the beginning of the book, in case you have any questions).

It's easy to see why thousands of readers have been swept up into the captivating saga of the B&B boys in this, the fourth volume in the series. Set in the picturesque New England-style harbor town of Northport, (a real town, located on the rocky north shore of Long Island), the men of Kyle's B&B have returned for more drama, romance, laughter, intrigue, suspense, and, (sometimes), sheer wackiness. Closeted baseball player Brad... cool, calculating businessman Lance... party boy gossip Richard... hardworking college student Eduardo... and B&B owner Kyle, the calm at the center of the emotional maelstrom. Although the series runs as a biweekly comic strip, (published online and syndicated to LGBT print publications across North America), this collection reads more like a graphic novel, with interwoven, ongoing storylines sure to be of spellbinding interest to both men & women, gay & straight readers alike. Containing several years' worth of episodes, (in which new characters such as Olympic figure skater Michael, octogenarian Rudy, and southern musclebear sensation Drew are introduced), this volume also includes a 7-page all-new story sure to enthrall readers. Happily, it isn't necessary to have read prior volumes in the series... new readers can jump right into the story here with ease, in what is possibly the best volume in the series so far. Lushly illustrated in full-color, this is one B&B you'll want to return to again and again!
