Little green guy has six fingers.
I suspect that the author never said the title out loud until it was too late to change. Tharthee. Tharthee. Tharthee.
Alien: “So, I stole and attached to myself a human arm. What’s the big deal? The kid was this big.”
Man: “Come on, we have to get you out of here before the crowd notices.”
Woman: “Get on with it. I see a cop over there.”

A whaling trip, more like: Tharthee blows!

A quick check showed them that the Kremlin spires on their spacecraft were still intact.

The little green guy seems to be saying, “Heeeeyyy! Whassup?”

He only wrote 2 books, _Saturnalia_, and this one, which is a sequel to _Saturnalia_.
Both good books – too bad he didn’t write more…
It is a very 80’s SF cover, though, I agree 🙂

It’s the Alien Fonz: “Ayyy…!” (cue wild audience applause and whooping until he signals for abrupt silence).

“Darling… that alien has a third ear.. can’t I use the toilet on another planet?”

How does that hair fit in that helmet?

Two Lion (Lyon) titles in a row… Is this a theme week?

can we start a new tag for ‘failiens’? lol

Life begins at Tharthee.
August 15th, 2012 at 7:01 pm
Reading the title makes me wonder if Daffy Duck makes an appearance…
August 15th, 2012 at 8:21 pm
Dethpicable!

Look, it’s Björk!

Maybe that is a misprint… “A Lion on Tharthee” might have really been “Alien on Tharthee”…

Damn that alien’s got tiny hands.

At least we know the answer to “Whatever happened to Kristy MacNichol?”

17!!! I counted 17 fingers on this cover!

Candice Bergen on Thhartee!!

Thanks B! Tag sweep done.

“Look! A lion, thar, thee!”
By the way, your new random cover button is evil. Can’t…stop…clicking on it…just…one more time…!

Either Benedict Cummerbund there has his helmet on needlessly, or Kristy McNichol from the late 70’s is about to die.
Either way, green guy doesn’t care. He’th not Tharthee.

Larry Niven won’t read, he’ll just enjoy looking at the future Baen covers?
August 9th, 2021 at 8:38 pm
He’s got twelve fingers, four ears, and, although you can’t see it, three penises.

@fred: Larry did always have an eye for the ladies, so the average cover of theirs would be right up his alley.
@Bruce: No wonder he looks so smug.
