| I am a very big fan of your works. I attempt
to collect all of your work. I was just going to say I loved
the story given to the Mara piece. I liked that it incorpeated
the "King of Fools" and others into a story that later
related her to Lilith. It was great. Your fan, Slenker [April 2006] Your artwork is amazing. First time I ever saw your artwork on "Born of the Night." When Tales from the Dark Tower came out, I bought it almost immediately. I loved every story, there were two stories that stuck out to me. The first, actually, was "Masque of Sorrow" and the second was "Lilith." I've read the book at least 4 times since I've had it. Anon [March 2006] I just finished reading Tales from the Dark Tower. Outstanding. I love the way that the stories were all connected. It was like the pieces of a jigsaw puzzle coming together slowly one by one. Great concept. I'm REALLY looking foward to your next book. Pat, NYC [February 2006] Tales from the Dark Tower is one of my absolute favorite books to read and I was hoping there would be more of it! Seriously, this book is so great---no words I can find would ever do justice in describing just how much I adore and appreciate the book. From first page to last, this book is magnificent. Jen [January 2006] Your artwork is truly amazing, I can not believe someone can come up with these haunting yet beautiful images.The one that truly caught my eye is the one you did in Tales from the Dark Tower for the story "Masque of Sorrow." I adore your poem "Something Wicked." I read it over and over and yet it remains fresh and new. PowrChikz [February 2005) I've loved your artwork for some time now, and I recently bought Tales From The Dark Tower. I couldn't put the book down. It was amazing. It was one of those books you want to read and finish it, but you want to take your time and savor the excitement. But I wanted to tell you how much I loved the book and keep doing what you do best! Albert Hall [January 2005) This book was just calling for me to read it while sitting upon a store shelf. The drawings by Joseph Vargo are the most captivating and moving that I've ever seen anywhere. All of the stories were brilliant and tolled an awesome tale!!! I just wanted to thank you all for writing one of the best books ever! Sancia Moe [January 2005) I would like to take the time to thank you and the others who took the time and effort to put together such a great anthology... The very first night I had read it from cover to cover, which I hardly ever do, and then the next day I went back and read it once more. From that night on, I find myself picking the book up and reading it from time to time, usually all in one setting, I must confess that this is a first. Also the artwork that is displayed is capivating... my favorite is of the gargoyle in "Night Watcher." Thank you once more. Christopher Crowley [October 2004) I would like to congratulate you on your work... Tales of the Dark Tower is just awsome!! I love the way the stories are told, and I also love your art. Kumar Rodriguez [September 2004) I purchased Tales From the Dark Tower about a week ago...honestly, it is the best book I have ever had the privilege of reading. I tried to tear myself away because I wanted to save some for later...but I couldn't stop myself... I just could not put the book down. You draw so beautifully, Joseph Vargo. Thanks for serving as my hugest inspiration. J. Williams [September 2004) Mind Blowing! This book is absolutely AMAZING! If you are into gothic fantasy this is definitely the book for you! It is full of lavish illustrations by Joseph Vargo of Monolith Graphics. I couldnt put the book down once I opened it! The various authors---including Joseph Vargo---do a wonderful job of painting a mental picture for you with their words. I would recomend this story to anyone looking for an extremely well put together book, but the squeamish should probably stay away, because of excess blood spillage. I would read it a thousand times, maybe more if only I had the time. Anyway, its a great read! Michael J. Crowley [August 2004] I have just purchased your book Tales from the Dark Tower and I wanted to express to the both of you how impressed I am with your work. All of the stories were very well written, including yours. I am very interested in writng and the English language and I was amazed at how well you communicated your thouhgts and ideas. I was drawn to the book by it's ineresting cover, for I am fascinated with gothic tales, vampire legends and horror stories. Joseph, your artwork clearly stands out from anything I have ever seen before! I have not yet finished reading the book, but I am greatly anticipating the tales I have left to read. I definitely think you should write more novels and stories to accmpany your fabulous artwork. I just wanted to say thanks for such a great book, and keep up the excellent work!!! Shiryl [April 2004] A few weeks ago I went to this store called Hot Topic. I saw your book, it had an attractive cover, so I bought it. That book, with many great authors, and the drawings, the way all of you used the words to express, was a great book, in fact my favorite. It is really the best book I've read. The cause of this email is just to ask if you are going to make another volume of this book? Well thank you and the great authors of this book for making a great book. Cruely Yours, Miss Widow [October 2003] It was December and I had just experienced my first flying trip not a few days earlier. My sister and I had flown to Utah to visit family. We were buying some Vamp T-shirts when I saw the book Tales From The Dark Tower. Having never seen it back home I decided to buy it. Although I am not done yet I am taken with the power of lust and dark beauty with in it. Never before have I ever read such an amazement. The art is breath taking but the stories you have created behind them are even more. By far my Favorite is "Born Of The Night" for I feel like the moon waiting for my night and at least now I know how to feel and not just lost in this world with no real reason to keep looking or waiting. I feel that one day he will spread his dark wings and find me awaiting. Takenly Yours, Andrea [March 2004] Awesome Book... It's got great tales, awesome art work, and sexy scenes. You can't get any better than this. Melissa [May 2003] Beautiful art for the gothic side of our souls... This is an amazing book for any horror/goth enthusiast. The art inside the book is disturbing and gorgeous. This is the most decadent book that I have ever picked up. I loved every page of it. If you love vampires, ghouls, and the supernatural. Buy this book---it is one of a kind. A+ J. Autrey [October 2001] The Air Is Thick With Hints of Rain... Finally. Tales from the Dark Tower, with characters based on Vargo's art work, this montage of dark tales [13 in all) by various authors is unlike anything you could imagine. Classic Gothic work at its very best. Although I am not a huge fan of fiction, I came across this book, and it is set apart from the norm or anything else for that matter. Along comes all that the gothic community has been waiting for---something that defines the word Gothic. Reminiscent of the old black and whites that used to fill James O'Barr's work (creator of The Crow), Joseph Vargo's haunting images from his artwork is what this book was based upon. Beautiful artwork, dark stories, and characters that your own father wouldn't choose for a hero, but you're not your father are you? Highly recommended for anyone who roots for the moody, dark, vampiric hero. Enter the delicious world of Vargo. Dark Crow [August 2001] I have recently bought your book Tales From The Dark Tower, and I would just like to let you know it is the most amazing thing I have ever read. I think everyone who was involved in it are truly talented and amazing. I really love this book, and I greatly appreciate all of the time and effort that you put into it. It is truly an amazing piece. A true fan, Dusty Tucker I really am quite undone by Tales From The Dark Tower in all its majesty. I am a fan of Dark Realms Magazine, and recently purchased this book, and I must say that you all amaze me. I've been studying vampire lore for quite a while now, and most of the books I've read say the same things. But after reading these tales, I felt most enlightened by the dark persona and ambiance. The stories made me feel like I was actually there. My mouth hung open as you richly described the Tower and its dark setting, and the artwork is outstanding. Darkest greetings and praise... Crimson Gambini I received your book, Tales from the Dark Tower, a couple weeks ago and I can't put it down. I love all the tales, and the images in the book are excellent and go with the tales. This is one of the best I've ever read and now it is one of my favorites. I love it. Brom is truly a great character. I would love to see another book come out by Monolith Graphics. Congratulations all. Casey Hess I received my copy of Tales from the Dark Tower. Your fast return of my order was GREAT and the packaging of the book was well done. Thanks again for excellent service and top quality shipping on your products. This book is just what I expected it to be, it is very dark and gothic. It kicks major ass!!! John Carter I just wanted to let you know that I love your artwork and the creativity behind the stories Tales from the Dark Tower. Mr. Vargo, you are very truly a great artist. I also think that Miss Filipak's writing is poetic and entrancing. Thank you for giving me the pleasure in reading this and I look forward to future material...

You guys are the absolute greatest artists alive... Erik Parr The art was fabulous, and now the story behind each image is revealed. All of the tales were excellent, drawing me into the shadowy realms. I couldn't set it down. Matt Kirkby Tales from the Dark Tower far surpassed my expectations. I absolutely love it. I will always treasure this book and Joseph Vargo's extraordinary work. My congratulations to Monolith Graphics for a job well done. I certainly hope you have another book in progress.
