Don’t fancy yours much.

I thought that we need a space sheep somewhere on the cover…and I’ve come to the conclusion, we need one everywhere on the cover.

The original was the first book to have a hologram on the cover.

Skook is such a racial slur. They prefer to be called WTF-Americans.

I’m getting Magnus Pike flashbacks. Which makes me the first person to have thought about Dr Pike in 37 years.

Turns out “Skook” is a real thing:

@Tom Noir – Behold the new tag: “gibberish title”
Which I am proud to bestow next on:
Tarra Khash – Hrossak!
It took me a long time to relocate that one since I couldn’t remember what to google.
I am open to other candidates. Please be patient, I expect a flood of nominations. This might take a while.

What does the Skook say?
August 26th, 2015 at 11:34 pm
Kirk: “Are you able to get a reading on that compound?”
Skook: “Nah man, I spent all my money on shit from Abrachinsky’s, yo.”
Kirk: “Recommendation.”
Skook: “Well, you should get yer ass in gear and we’ll trow back some keggers and boilo at the ‘DC or hit the weed like a champ.”
Kirk: “That ought to be just about right.”

@Tag Wizard: Huzzah!
More candidates for the ‘gibberish title’ tag:
Swell Foop, Trullon – Alastor 2262, Rork!, and Manalacor of Veltakin.

All hail the “Gibberish Title” tag! This book doesn’t particularly come off as interesting, only like it was both written and designed on drugs. Eeh.
August 27th, 2015 at 1:42 am
@Tom Noir – Agreed, except for Swell Foop. I say that all the time. It’s a spoonerism, not gibberish.

Grade 3 Teacher, P.S. 2, Scranton, PA—
And so, children, please observe closely the effects of decades of coal slurry flowing into the once pristine Schuylkill River, and what it has done to this formerly fluffy, lovable duck.
Little Billy—
Well, you should get yer ass in gear and we’ll trow back some keggers and boilo at the ‘DC or hit the weed like a champ.

@Tag Wizard – We musn’t forget The Seren Cenacles!!!
August 28th, 2015 at 5:16 am
@TW – I also humbly submit the buns of Neveronya for the gibberish title tag.

@Tom Noir: Not sure about Neveryona – it’s a place-name in the stories (and referred to in the previous book in the series) so you’d have to count ‘Dune’ or ‘Foundation’ as well.

THE TRUMP
an enthralling fantasy of Presidency and love of toupées

Strange. This is the first cover that’s made me immediately wonder what the poor author’s reaction was upon seeing this… thing.
