HA! You thought I was Weber, didn't you?

No, no! This is probably much much worse. Permit me invite you to visit and view a posting on my personal blog "I.A.M. Musing About…" which entirely concerns appalling book covers of the Sci-Fi genre: http://iamiam.ca/musing/archives/2010/2215/bad-covers-1

Honestly, very bad stuff here, but quite a bit of justifiable mocking goes on, especially as to the inconceivability that someone actually thought at some point "yes, that's what we should have on the cover; that'll do nicely!"

Share and enjoy.

"Space Swoppers"?! Honestly, what *will* they come up with next.

That was hilarious, Ian - thanks for that. I know a bunch of people (on the Vault of Evil forum) who will just *love* those covers (and probably the books too). Mind if I point them in the direction of your blog?

[and by the way, I *did* think you were Weber when I first read the post title ]

Caroline, my blog is on the same Internet that the entire world uses; *anyone* can be pointed at it without having to ask first. Go right ahead!

That's just as well Weber .. er, sorry, I mean Ian .. 'cos I did! Haven't been back to that forum to see if anyone has said anything about it yet, but I might pop over there in a minute or two ...

I totally fell for it too, Ian! (Yes, really, which makes it twice as much fun for you.)

"Those Sexy Saucer People" - fantastic trash!
