Galactic Aliens by Alan Frank is a visually captivating compendium that serves as an intergalactic wildlife handbook, presenting a collection of imaginative extraterrestrial life forms. Each of the 43 featured aliens is showcased with a two-page spread, combining vivid, airbrushed illustrations characteristic of the late 1970s with descriptive text. The book adopts a pseudo-nonfictional approach, cataloging these beings as if for an interstellar confederation, and even includes humans as a relatively insignificant but hostile species. While the scientific accuracy of the content is not its focus, the creative narratives and distinctive artwork offer an engaging experience, especially for younger readers and enthusiasts of speculative fiction.
