Most covers only hint at cleavage. Where we will succeed will be in the tactic of placing an actual topless women on the cover! Riding horse back along an alien desert. Oh, and she is being lead by a sort of Apache Indian bloke with an extremely long sword. And yes, I mean a literal sword.
Thanks to Craig!

What is the women using the whip for? It doesn’t seem long enough to hit the dude, and surely hitting the horse would just annoy it.

…. there’s even a naked horse! ooooooh yeaaaaaah!
I love the illusion that the horse is floating about 10cm off the ground

Made me think of Avatar for some reason. A poo-brown avatar rather than a blue one but Avatar nonetheless.
Perhaps this would look better in 3D too. And with more tails on the people and legs on the horse.

Haha, too true; you may enjoy reading:

It is called Flight to Opar (why is it that only the last word in the title is underlined). That obviously refers to the flying habits of the local horses.

Apparently both this and its predecessor, Hadon of Opar, had different covers for different editions, at least one version of which for each had a bare breasted woman on it. Personally, I think this one has much better jugs: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/images/0879976373/ref=dp_otherviews_0?ie=UTF8&s=books&img=0

Hmmm..it also appears, from this: http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.pjfarmer.com/bimages/fto2.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.pjfarmer.com/ftothumbs.htm&usg=__VcjLrCTyy1WtM8HjXiHnNeH45io=&h=521&w=308&sz=50&hl=en&start=2&um=1&tbnid=eebz2aSeWBV3tM:&tbnh=131&tbnw=77&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dflight%2Bto%2Bopar%26ndsp%3D21%26hl%3Den%26sa%3DN%26um%3D1%26ie%3DUTF-8 that the jugs are a British adaptation. That’s why there’ll always be an England.

The first one is pretty bad. It just goes to show that maybe both the stupidly long sabre and the the naked chick are actually important story points.
The British one looks likes for a totally different story though

@Tom,
We have our traditions, yes.

So… The humans are both pretty much naked.
Which means she’s riding a galloping horse naked. The bounce alone makes me cringe with sympathetic pain.
Oh, and she’s riding sidesaddle!. Except of course she isn’t. Real sidesaddle has a special saddle with a sort of post you hook your knee over for stability, because riding sidesaddle is, frankly, stupid, and you need all the anchoring you can get. She’s just sideways draped over the back of the horse, which doesn’t look like it has a saddle or bridle.
From its shadow, the horse is galloping. So that woman (and shouldn’t her hair be at least disturbed?) with no saddle or bridle or stirrups should be sprawled in the dust somewhere a hundred yards back.
He is running, with no leg or foot protection of any kind, right in front of a galloping horse, holding an unsheathed sword. Don’t those hooves look ominously hard next to his vulnerable feet?
He is running flat out. Is he swinging his arms to help his momentum, thus risking slicing himself, the horse, and the girl to ribbons, or is he running while holding his sword arm stiffly out in front?
It’s like a fantasy-style public service message of What Not to Do.

Is she being eaten by her cowl…?
