Book Wench Comments: ‘Fear in Firland’ is a true masterpiece, written in the 1970s by the vicar of Ladywood, it has all the worst bits of Narnia thrown in with some Native American (?) possibly Middle Ages… something… Any cover that can combine flying saucers and squirrels are okay with me!

Scott Comments: Cat People always make a great cover, but a steam-dragon-train, that’s something else!

Good Show Sir’s Art Direction: Boarders and frames are the window to one’s soul my friend! Just make sure this soul has a perm and a great pair of… candles… ah ha ha ha. Of course I really mean boobs.

David G Comments: Eggs, skulls, stars and withered leathery hands are all pretty unreasoning I reckon.

Ash Comments: If you want to show a human and an alien swapping minds, should the human be photo-realistic while the alien looks like a child’s drawing? Or is he turning into an alien child’s drawing? That mouth just bugs me.

Wes Comments: I recently went to Hay-on-Wye in Wales for the first time, which is famous for it’s bookshops. There’s something like 28 second-hand bookshops in one tiny town, it’s incredible! So many obscure titles, such a rich vein of stunningly cheesy covers, I honestly felt a bit dizzy. So anyway, I only bothered snapping a few and this is my favourite.

Good Show Sir’s Art Direction: You know how Rambo poses? And Arnie in all his films? I want that and I want my hunk to have arms the size of tree trunks! One can never have his space hunk too muscular.

Piccol78’s Art Direction: So there’s Rama in the title than you got to play it mystical; no wait; better! Indian stuff goes well with Psychedelia so make it more Grateful Death, a bit hypnotic but with monsters and some Random Escher stuff. Uh, Uh! Don’t forget to put in a Flying Vagina!
