Good Show Sir

So on this cover I want a vision of the future! I ponder what shall humanity meet? Aliens? OR a huge dragon lizard alien!?! And how shall man react? Peacefully? Or will they be blasting away at it with a shoulder mounted laser gun, wearing tight grey jump suits and wielding their horrendous mullets or bowl cuts… God… I can’t wait for the year 2015.

   I do believe this cover needs bonus points for being BRIGHT ORANGE!!!!

   So you have no chance of reading it on public transport without being noticed!

   Star Flight factoid, +3 Beard Wielding damage per round:
   Star Flight (2007), by the prolific “Andre” Alice Norton, is an omnibus of the two books of the Astra series, aka the Pax series: The Stars Are Ours! (1954) and Star Born (1957).

   Cover could do with a nice red 50th anniversary edition riband across one of the corners. Mmm, orange and red, goes so well.

   Is “Escape to the Stars!” a tagline, or an admonition about what you should do if people catch you reading a book with this cover?

   There’s no galaxy too distant if they do.
