You do realise the book is about a brothel in space?
September 27th, 2011 at 8:54 am
Nope! But now you tell me I am buying this right away! Woooo Space Smut!
September 27th, 2011 at 9:11 am
bit over priced perhaps.
September 27th, 2011 at 9:13 am
Looks like both ladies have had issues with their bejazzle.
September 27th, 2011 at 9:58 am
How Bobby Fischer really saw the world.
September 27th, 2011 at 11:13 am
So the book is about a brothel that specializes in sexy chess.
September 27th, 2011 at 11:14 am
Fortunately, you never get to see Bobby Fischer or Gari Kasparov play in outfits like that.

“Is that a butterfly hat or are you just happy to see me?”

BUTTERFACE IN SPACE!

Geez, who knew aliens also go for that hairless kitty look. I suppose next she’ll be Vajazzling.

Probably NSFW or anyone with common sense when it comes to their nether regions.

The horrible orange font. The horrible table. My eyes!

Stupid Space Harlots, the chess board is set up wrong. The white squares should be on the right.

MATURITY DESCENDING
September 27th, 2011 at 9:46 pm
What is the lady on the left holding? Oh, I see, a chesspiece.
And why does the lady on the right have butterfly wings for ears?
And why does the butterfly wing have the head of a snake?
What intricate feet and fetlocks(?) on those table legs.
Why is she wearing a beaded curtain?
Wha-
Oh, WTF.

PS Luminous slippers!

“The horrible orange font.”
Hey now, Gill Sans is actually a pretty nice typeface. Granted, the Ultra Bold form is a little peculiar, but not without its charms. And, notorious perv that he was, I bet Eric Gill (the accomplished artist that created Gill Sans) would appreciate its use on a book about space hookers.

Thank you, Space Dolly, from protecting us from horrible fashion choices – and nudity. Now if only there was another Space Dolly to protect us from that awful butterfly-snake-headpiece thing. o_0

Holy crap did the artist not know what to do when it came to the sparkly naked-er woman’s feet, and those of that idiot table. The rest of the painting is… decent, for scifi art, but then you look at their feet and it’s its like the artist only ever learned how to paint shiny boots.
September 28th, 2011 at 9:20 am
I’ve read the book. It is surprisingly meh. There are also three sequels – Eros at Zenith, Eros Descending and Eros at Nadir.
September 28th, 2011 at 11:05 am
Eros Checkmating
Eros Playing Tic-Tac-Toe
Eros Cosplaying
September 28th, 2011 at 3:56 pm
Ian Sales: Eros At Nadir? You mean it sinks lower than this?
September 28th, 2011 at 10:18 pm
There’s no sense that the figure on the right is a human body. She’s all … hard and shiny. The beads should be dimpling her skin somewhere — bodies have soft places even when they’re skinny and oiled. Those beads hang over her like they’re hanging over hard plastic.
And what’s with the hospital slippers?
September 29th, 2011 at 8:17 am
Maybe it’s a zero-gravity area and the ladies are hanging onto the floor with magnets in the tips of their shoes…
September 29th, 2011 at 3:31 pm
I think the naked one looks like Marylin Manson. That could account for the plasticy look, as Marylin likes to put on plastic-lady-body-suits.
@A.R.Yngve I like your theory of the magnetic shoes. However, why is the table also on it’s tiptoes? Does that mean that it was designed by a table-maker who was also on his tiptoes while making it? Which begs the question: will humanity eventually develop ostrich feet?
Inquiring minds would like to know!

Camel-toes in S-P-A-C-E!
December 3rd, 2013 at 4:43 pm
Why are both women standing on their toes?!?
December 3rd, 2013 at 8:47 pm
@TomNoir: do you really need to know? You’re like my mum cleaning out the fridigaire. ‘No, mumsie, you don’t need to unwrap the paper towels round the half melon, and you certainly don’t need to sniff it. It’s under a bloody half-inch of ice, it’s not like it has any smell left at all.’ Leave the Space-Sheep where it is, Tom, and move along. 😉

I look at the woman on the left and think “Beverly Crusher, The Early Years.”
January 21st, 2015 at 9:43 am
@TN: Suddenly this book looks interesting.

New tag: ‘Exhibitionism’ for nudity in line-of-sight of a window.
September 11th, 2015 at 4:50 am
Ok, now that you’ve mastered the Sicilian defense, the Sokolsky opening and the Latvian gambit, and also of course since you’re dressed just right, I think you’re ready to take on Flandry.
September 11th, 2015 at 8:03 am
@DSWBT: How about adding ‘peek-a-boob’ as well?
September 11th, 2015 at 1:05 pm
This is what happens when you agree to play Strip Ker-Plunk

Space chess! Looks like the queen is about to get forked.
January 13th, 2017 at 1:43 pm
“Do you mind if I take this white queen and go play by myself?”
January 13th, 2017 at 1:45 pm
The one on the left must be tired of hearing comments about her asp.
January 13th, 2017 at 2:03 pm
We’ve seen those ears elsewhere.
January 13th, 2017 at 2:44 pm
“So you see, LaVerne, if you tilt your chin upward, bend down the corners of your mouth and peer down your nose, you can sort of convince yourself that—despite your utterly absurd outfit and hat—you’ve retained a shred of dignity.”
January 13th, 2017 at 3:47 pm
“and LaVerne, I think the telescope nerds on earth can see Uranus.”
Never gets old…

“When I suggested you make a dress from the curtains like in Gone with the Wind, I didn’t think you’d use the beaded curtains from the doorway.”
January 13th, 2017 at 6:41 pm
Five years on, I bet this book’s still in a second-hand shop, marked down a bit.
January 13th, 2017 at 11:35 pm
porn gambit declined
January 14th, 2017 at 2:07 am
@Tat: No, it went to the “Everything $1” shelf or bin, at which point it possibly got sold. OTOH, it may have failed there too, and has now been recycled into something else.
January 14th, 2017 at 2:35 am
@ Tat & noob – Actually this particular edition is going to set you back $25
January 14th, 2017 at 2:39 am
@B’mancer: It’s going to set someone back $25, but that someone ain’t me. Can’t speak for Tat.

On close inspection, there appears to be a beard between the legs…of the table.
