It’s another bank holiday weekend and that can only mean one thing for us here at Good Show Sir! Party time! Or possibly just the cinema and a few beers, which might be a party… to some people.
These covers have been sent in by the very excellent Saxy Stevenson who found them while in Nepal. Hope you enjoy them, as for the published dates… ummm can anyone here read Japanese?

Jon L’s Art Direction: I want mountains! Mouths! Bad breath in the form of clouds! I’m talking The Emerald City on top of a giant screaming insect hillside chomping on the landscape! With lazer beam eyes! You know – sci-fi!

Paul H Cook Comments: This is the cover to my first novel. It didn’t sell well. My editor/publisher blamed me, of course. This looks like a Harlequin romance. Even I wouldn’t have purchased this book.

Michelle Comments: I suspect the figure in the lower half of the cover found their armor just wasn’t enough to protect them from the title pun. Look at the poor spaceman, crushed by the agony! This is a follow-up to Matt’s submission of SpaceCops: Kill Station. I thought maybe you all hadn’t suffered enough, and another one from the series just came into the shop. Enjoy?

There are few times in life when I boast of attaining perfection. The fonts, the scary woman who looks a little too desperate for a man, the man frozen as he runs away, the mist, the obligatory quote and lets not forget the glow. I can see it now. We are giving them something so beautiful that people will shed tears of joy.
