Brett Christensen's 25th anniversary Stryper picture book, By His Strypes.

After a good, long, ten-month wait, copies of the limited edition Stryper picture book, By His Strypes, are shipping to anxious fans.

ROCK & REVIEW received number 641 of 777 limited edition copies.

We can tell you, without-a-doubt, By His Strypes is by far the nicest picture book put out in honor of any band. Commemorating Stryper's pioneering work and in celebration of their 25th anniversary, By His Strypes is a must-have for any Stryper fan. By His Strypes is a 200 page treasure of ultra-rare photos, interesting captions, and an album-by-album history of the band that forever changed the landscape of Christian music.

The remaining copies will be offered for sale on the Stryper site once all pre-orders have shipped, which should be any day now.

The thickly padded custom cover fits in quite well with other NatGeo books on one of the R&R book shelves. By His Strypes also feels great in the hand and turning it's heavy pages of nice photography is time well spent.
