Good Show Sir Comments: Here is the wrap-around cover so you enjoy the wrap-around snake view. The camera might not pick it up but everything is embossed. Lady, snake, sword, title. Everything!

Perry Armstrong Comments: “I searched to see whether this Sheckley cover had already been posted, and was amazed to find only – three – Sheckley covers thus far featured on Good Show Sir! Given the sheer awesomeness of numerous Sheckley covers, I find your lack of Sheckley covers disturbing, and hope this Sheckley cover goes some way towards rectifying the situation. Sheckley cover.

Chris D Comments: I quite like this cover. As far as following the plot, I suppose that the vacuum tube with the face in is meant to be one of the computers with a human brain. I also like that it was probably completed in just under a half hour.
