Ok! What would gods normally do, while inhabiting the body of a busty half naked women? Hmmm, how about standing by a sweet tower glowing oddly, on all fours in front of some sort of cat creature and swinging a sword about to decapitate a snake. Gods are all about the sexual innuendo! Yeaaaaahhhhaaa!
Thanks to David D!

Pathway to the Gouds!
These are spectacularly awful.

No they are not Simon. As the note says, they are the perfect gift. And to be signed by the authour, who wouldn’t jump at the chance?
That was just to point it out, to anyone that hadn’t noticed. Unless there is a strange american spelling of author… then I’d look rather silly.

hmm… do you really trust the gift choices of a bookseller who can’t spell author?! Not a great sign really.
I had a blind moment and read the last title as Bothering Gods, which actually sounds much more interesting.

I read it as “Fathering Gods”, which, given the nubility of the ladies on the covers, well, wouldn’t you?

Well i’m not sure Little Mi has the right equipment for the task.
Sad to see an authours credability taking a hit because of a rather slow bookshop manager. There were ample opportunities to spot the mispelling; when writing it, when photocopying it and when putting it under the book which has a sticker with correct spelling on it…

All that’s missing is that Baen guy’s head on the cover. Or are these books for fanboys who think “Tomb Raider” too deep and literary?

The next trilogy:
–COFFEE-CLUTCHING OF THE GODS
–PARKING SPACE OF THE GODS
–STARTING WORK JUST LATE ENOUGH TO FEEL MISERABLE YET NOT SO LATE AS TO GET DRESSED DOWN BY THE BOSS OF THE GODS
Three guesses as to whom had to go in to the office bright and early on a lovely Saturday morning…?

How about a “SEALED BY THE AUTHOR (with superglue)” sticker…

“Signed by the Authour” because he’s related to the bookstore Ouwner?
(the only reason I can fathom for those being in there, so prominently displayed)
Even Space Sheep wanted nowt to do with these, thus the hastily added clothing.

I have to admit when I saw the title for this post, my first thought was of a vast, celestial vault filled with _all_ the Star Wars memorabilia.

@Bruce: I thought of that Collector guy from the Marvel movies. But yours is more fun.
