I've never played Knights of Glory, but the artist being the same as Final Fantasy Tactics caught my eye.
The book is a nice 151 pages, and all of it is art. It's divided into 4 sections - Job (pg3-28), Dragons & Monsters (pg29-90), Weapons & Armor (pg91-134), and Story (135-151). As you can see, character art is not really the focus of this book.
The Job section shows both genders for each class, and puts two classes on each page. They also include tiny chibi/SD art in the corner of the avatar in a standing pose. The art is by no means polished - it's just like Tactics art, so shading is not dramatic, and a little flat even, but still has that charm and elegant style to it.
The Dragons ...
There are four major sections in this book: Job, Dragon & Monster, Weapon & Armor, and Story. The last section is the smallest one. I can't read Japanese, but from looking at it, I don't think it spoils much about the game.
Definitely a must have book for video game concept artists and lovers!
The book contains a lot of Akihiko Yoshida's illustrations for Knights of Glory (which I never played, but has an awesome artwork), and reminds me a lot of his works on Bravely Default and specially Final Fantasy Tactics (which is my all-time favorite).
I wish the book had more pages, but it is still well worth the price for all its glory!
