    The other stories are: Cro-Magnon Country, Homo Erectus Galaxy, and Paranthropus Universe.

    Some manscaping is in order here.

    Head growing out of a plant ! That must be worse than the hair of the dog after a good Friday night!

    @Dead Stuff: this is intelligent design?

    Did someone stick a head on a plant, or did the head grow from the plant?

  13. Anna T. Says:

    I’m not sure where you get planters like that, and I don’t think anyone really wants to know.

  14. Reuben Bodi Says:

    So anyway, I get being critical of covers, but good design is relative and book covers should reflect the period they came out of. Getting all design-snobby on pulp fiction?

  15. Bibliomancer Says:

    @Reuben Bodi – Alas you don’t get it because it is not at all about being critical, hatey or snobby on the covers. We LOVE our covers. They are a springboard to the wonderful wit, snark and banter in the comments.

    And sometimes they are just Good Show Sir worthy terrible.

  16. B. Chiclitz Says:

    C’mon, somebody set me up for this: “Face in Tree!”

    @Reuben Bodi: Sir, I would submit that the only snobbery in evidence is emanating from post #14. Like when you’re downstairs and the serial killer calls you on the phone and the police trace the call and it turns out it’s coming from the upstairs line.

    Robot disassembly is his-tree.

  18. Dead Stuff With Big Teeth Says:

    @Reuben: pulp fiction?

    Robo: All right, everybody be cool, this is a shrubbery!
