The sketching of all my high school classmates (see below) got me thinking of other high school times... beyond the cars, music, movies and whatnot, I read a lot as a teenager, as I guess I still do.
I probably read "Empire of the East" 4 or 5 times as a teen. Fred Saberhagen was one of my favorite authors from that time of my life. He might be best remembered for his "Berserker" series, which has been ripped off about a million times and a million different ways since (humanity builds intelligent robots, that gain more intelligence and independence and decide to turn against their creators).
Empire of the East, however, was a future fantasy book, wherein lost high technology is the new "magic".

Saruman the White
A departure from the regular animal sketches for a moment. This is Saruman the White, sketched from an action figure. Without question, the Lord of the Rings trilogy are my favorite movies... and in my top ten for favorite books of all time.
