Noomas is worthy of GSS.

Editor: Boy, this Neutzel guy’s a genius! He’s hit on the perfect formula for titles! Just take some random military role, put in a preposition—”of” seems to work best—and then add some made up place name. You can even use the same name twice by just flipping it around. He just sent in a list of titles for his next series of yarns. Looks like after Warriors of Noomas and Swordmen of Vistar it’s gonna be:
Bowmen of Hoosis
Horsemen of Laputa
Pikemen of Baldymont
Foot Soldiers of Wishitz
Spearchuckers of Samoon
Mace Swingers of Ratsiv

I love fancy-hilted swords as much as the next gal, but the minute I own a ray gun, that’s what I’m using as my dominant hand weapon. Also, that scabbard seems non-ergonomically-optimal.

What’s good about this cover: there are no spelling errors.

That dragon is not using his reach advantage. He let that little guy get right up in his grill.

‘Fully illustrated’? Pics or it didn’t happen.
As for the cover.. Lillie Awesome is almost right but if the gun didn’t work but was still shiny enough to distract Clifford, as seems to be happening here, this might be a good strategy. Or mullet-man might be left-handed. That might even be why he’s been sent into te gladiatorial arena with the gargling gargoyle.

Hi, dragon. Sorry to interrupt while you’re brushing your teeth, but you’re doing it wrong. I’m Torlo, the itinerant dentist. Let me help with my toothpick and dental drill.

I must disagree with the GSS comment: if yon beastie’s mouth is open all the time, s/he’s not going to be dripping drool as it’ll all dry out.
@Lillie: Do we know if that’s Torlo’s zap gun? I see no holster, and presumably he’s holding it in his off hand. He might not know what it is and just likes it for the shiny, or is planning to throw it at beastie.
@Tor: that makes more sense than this cover does.
@Tat: Gargling gargoyle? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nfJwI9hVWlM

@GSS ex-noob: that’s where I was going with the line. I remember the episode because it had an American I’d heard of instead of the usual baffling alleged celebs.
I assumed most people would get the ‘Clifford’ reference too.

@Tat: I can’t imagine Willie Rushton putting his voice to that monstrosity.

@Raoul—So I guess that title-generating algorithm was more out of desperation than inspiration.
