That is one manicure gone seriously wrong.

Aha! Sister Immaculata was RIGHT about touching myself!

The book’s fun, though. I shall have to disentangle myself from the enjoyment of it to see if I can see the cover properly.

The more I look at the cover, the less I like the Rs. The ones in the title are just silly,the ones in the author’s name are hard to read. I blame the satanic fires.

I have this cover. If I hadn’t known who Randall Garret was I would have never bought it! Now I have the complete Lord Darcy in one volume, so I’ll send it off to find another home.

It’s easy to see who’s the RINGleader of that bunch of digits.

You’ve really got to hand it to the artist.

Cries out for a “font problems” tag!

Phil, your cries do not fall upon deaf…. eyes? Blind ears? Anyway… it’s done!

So if you subtracted the best of fantasy from so-so science fiction you would get a cracking detective story?
March 12th, 2012 at 8:52 pm
Fred, that seems a logical deduction. Strictly speaking you should replace “so-so science fiction” with “science fiction that is so-so OR BETTER”.
And Tag Wizard, thanks for your sympathetic listening!

After thinking about it, I still think this is an okay cover. It conveys what the book is about, and if it is slightly goofy, well, given that it’s magical pastiches of Sherlock Holmes starring a descendant of Mr. Darcy, why not?
It’s not badly done, in my opinion.

I guessed it would be Pikachu.
