I love books. I love chess.
I love both so much I’ve placed both in the book I am writing.
In the urban fantasy The Dark Thorn, which I am only a chapter away from finishing, I have a scene set within the gothic University of Washington Suzzallo Library. Later in the book, in an excerpt I’ve posted, my main protagonist Bran Ardall plays an ancient chess-like game called gwyddbwyll.
So you can imagine my immediate enjoyment in viewing the below photo:
I’m a sci-fi/fantasy geek and that photo of a Predator playing an Alien, coupled with my before-mentioned affinity for libraries and games, made my day yesterday.
I know. It doesn’t take much!
View a few other Alien vs. Predator images at Aint It Cool News. The ad campaign these images are a part of was created by DDB for a New Zealand television network, Sky TV, to promote airings of the Alien and Predator movies.
I hope the Alien thinks its move all the way through.
I hope the Predator doesn’t drink too much!
