Actually, that cover IS a classical work of art!I would touch it without protective gloves.I've seen worse. Far, far, worse.Interesting, but I would still read it in public.Middlng: Neither awful nor awfully goodWould not like to be seen reading that!Awful... just awful...That belongs in a gold-lame picture frame!Gah... my eyes are burning! Feels so good!Good Show Sir! (Average: 7.29 out of 10)

    Well, obviously I expected a giant albino walnut. Nothing else would make any sense.

    Walnut? It’s quite clearly a very mouldy and slightly radioactive cabbage.

    The artist can draw feet so we missed out on seeing some Boots of Spanish Leather.

    The book’s about people who can’t sleep and are therefore more intelligent and productive. Yes, really. Maybe the artist tried that.

    It doesn’t explain why she’s got bed-hair though.

    @Tor Mented – Admit it. You would have clicked through the glowing orb to see tits thinking it was the new space sheep.

    Beggars in Spam. It’s what all the sophisticated people are eating.

    @Tat W: ‘Bed-hair’ meaning enough hair to use as a bed?

    @fred—Well, we have set the feet bar pretty low here, given the usual cover efforts we encounter, but these look more like lumps of clay someone pressed a fork down on. Points for effort, but I might have preferred those Spanish Boots.

    Also points to the artist for mastering “titillating translucency” at UAI.

    She has the biggest hair and the tiniest head in the solar system

    @Alice: Each of her feet are bigger than her head.

    It’s all that standing up due to never sleeping, I guess: makes her feet swell.

    Doesn’t that falling meteoroid down and to the left of her look like Jack Skellington’s head? And what planet is it that has giant pistachio-colored clouds like that?

    So now Space Sheep is bored enough with social distancing to show up on covers where he’s not needed? Pranking us? Well, these are difficult times.

    Part of the book is set in space and there are several woman lead characters, but none of them float translucently at any time.

    @Bruce: It does look like Jack!
    Maybe the artist only had a bunch of green, had to use it on the clouds and the title.
